I just put one of these together with the 22" proof barrel. Have managed one sub MOA group with it in the first 100 rounds though a few others were close. Definitely a learning curve coming from the bolt action world.

Have you called them about it?

Nope not yet, have just been shooting it suppressed. I only got an upper so kinda figured I’d mess with it a bit before bothering them sense it wasn’t a complete rifle purchase.

Did you ever get the Norma 45 Basic brass? I see it listed as out-of-stock, but I don't recall seeing it in-stock.

Here are the reloading instructions that some have asked about.

Sorry about that! I buy and sell a lot on here, and with close to 900 DMs in the past year or so, a few inevitably slip by me.

Their gas block, the index notch and retaining nut are one of the features that set it apart. You don’t need an adjustable gas block for a properly gassed barrel, which the ridgeline rifles are.

I would almost beg to differ I have a Ridgeline upper and run it with the recommended A5H2 buffer set up. Clean the gun regularly and when shooting it unsuppressed I’ll get failure to lock back at times and failure to pick up the next round at times. Suppressed don’t have any issues. While I really do dig the design at the price point I’m a little disappointed in it. I plan on swapping the buffer to a jp silent capture, but just haven’t gotten around to it.

Burt! GRABOIDS INCOMING!

Did you ask this on another forum ?
And all they would say is Kidd , Kidd ?
I saw the video on rimfire SS as well and was wondering about using this receiver set , Kidd does not offer what I want , cpc closed , that leaves Joe Chaconne and I don’t know who else ,,,,,,,,,and diy

As a consideration... Does anyone know what/ how the naval guns (or tank) sort this out? Relatively speaking, they appear to have quite good accuracy, and from a bore to diameter ratio, they wouldn't scale to a typical heavy barrel

Click to expand...

From my extremely limited artillery experience (I rode by them and gave them the finger a lot), I understand that they actually weighed sorted the projectiles/rounds to match up to the charges. I'm pretty sure the naval guns did that too. Don't forget that they get a "box" to impact in (one square kilometer...so 500 meters of leeway on either side). And yes, I've been there when they went out of the box too. That kind of stuff gets one of those guys fired. Had naval gunnery go so far out of the box one day that we were pretty sure that they were trying for us on the G-3 range on LeJeune. In typical fashion, about 3 minutes after the ground shook we got a call over the radio to take cover because somebody out at sea let one go just a tad looooong.

As far as tanks go, well, the accuracy is pretty decent all things considered. Some systems are definitely going to be more accurate than others, but you are still in the general ballpark of about 10 MOA if they were to try to shoot at the same target a few times. I don't have a ton of tank experience either...but I used to ride past them a lot and give them the finger too...

It occurred to me after his acquittal, just how many movies he has been in that included guns and gunfire. That number is big.

If anyone should have know how to handle a gun on set, it should have been him.

Yes, but that’s not my question. They now sell reciever sets with NO barrel, BCG or trigger. I’m building from there and wondering what others who have done this have used before?

FIFY.

Would love some photos of the bolt/firing mechanism. Any markings on the barrel?

Almost pulled the trigger on one before finding the battery is crap. Was hoping to be able to take one in the backcountry but will be sticking with the Kestrel. Europtic has them in stock according to their site.

It isn't the battery that is the problem.
It is that it is constantly running as far as I can tell.
Apparently covering it limits some of the drain.
Disappointing and annoying for sure but it still performs well and a savings over Kestrel.
Hopefully, they take notice and fix this design flaw.

But but but one of the King's men died and someone has to be held accountable.
And how dare she!! She was supposed to be an easy open and shut frame job. So they will do this until they get the conviction.
