MoneyPitArms Matrix Thumb Wheel ball and spring

I bought a matrix from a friend . I wasn't aware of the brilliant way they designed the cheekpiece removal for cleaning . I cannot find any diagrams or videos on how or where to place said ball and spring . Money pit Arms solution is to buy a $20 cheek riser collar set and then give them another $10 for shipping . Woody at MPA doesn't answer the phone . Ed's in Alaska hunting moose for three weeks . I can run it without them , but I'd just like to know how to make it run "as designed" . Thanks I appreciate any help

Am I being an idiot - Why am I getting pressure signs here?

The rifle is a 22” Bartlein 6.5cm barrel chambered by bugholes with a terminus Zeus qc. About 160 rounds on the barrel so far, mostly not suppressed.

Same issue with two different loads
- 143gr eldx with 40gr h4350 with br2 and COAL of 2.864”
- 140gr eldm with 39gr h4350 with br2 and COAL of 2.853

Both in virgin Lapua brass prepped by trimming slightly to 1.906-1.908, 21st century expander mandrel at .262, and champher/debur.

Rifle initially shot great, multiple groups around .2 moa. I noticed heavy bolt lift intermittently, primarily shooting the 39.0 h4350 and eldm combo listed above, but didn’t know what to make of it and it kept shooting well. I scoped it and noticed what I thought was carbon ring initially, cleaned it out, and the rifle kept shooting well. Only had about 30 rounds through it after a good cleaning and scope to make sure the ring was gone, when I had very heavy lift shooting 14 rounds of the 40.0gr eldx load above, which seemed to be getting worse the longer I shot.

I scoped it again after I got home and included pictures of that in this post. It looks like a lot of carbon ring to me, which I don’t understand for only about 30 rounds of 6.5cm.

My chronograph died and I’m waiting on a Garmin to arrive, but initially had Chronographed the eldm load at 2520fps.

I tried decreasing my powder charge, and I am still seeing the same pressure signs of heavy bolt lift and ejector marks.

Am I trimming my brass too short and seating the bullets too long, resulting in premature issues with carbon ring? It doesn’t feel like I’m jamming the bullet into the lands when I close the bolt. Can’t figure out what’s going on, but I thought I was seating 20 and 40 thousandths off the lands based on my initial measurements. I’m assuming the problem is me and something I’m doing, but since I’m using brand new brass and not doing much to it, I don’t know what could be going on. Appreciate the help.

Rescued a Golden Retriever. Now what???

Ya know.....he's one of those guys. He is an almost sponsored bass fisherman but he has no boat. He guides duck hunts but doesn't really make any money at it and no one wants to go with him.

So shit head announces on a local radio show that he has a great bird dog that needs a new home. I dont want another dog but nothing thrives in this guys orbit so I make the call. I go over to look at the dog and it looks pretty timid. I ask him why he is letting go of such a great dog and he says its getting after his chickens. I know the area enough to know he doesnt have any chickens. Shit head.

I kneel down to call the dog over and he creeps forward until he gets past this guy and then bolts over. As I am petting him I realize under all that fur is nothin' but ribs and back bone. Shit head.

Great. Now I have another dog.

After throwing a bunch of groceries at the poor skinny guy, and letting him sort of settle in, he seems to be kind of coming into his own. But man, that dog has a ton of energy. Sweet, kind and kinda goofy. I have an older well mannered black lab and the Golden has really mothered up to him so he is not all alone when we are out.

I think he is just about 1 so what can I expect from here?

Outlier Barrel: A review of the Company & Barrel / 1YEAR follow up

***I paid for my optic and got a free barrel, that’s the extent of my relationship with Outlier***


I finally got my Outlier barrel, below is my personal experience, yours may vary.

6941D38C-6058-4BF5-A8A6-23A21C64F50E.jpeg


Let me start by saying it wasn’t fast, it wasn’t easy but when all the dust settled I am very impressed with the barrel and even more impressed with the customer service.

Like many who have an outlier barrel I got mine free99 with the purchase of an optic. The choices were limited so I went with everybody’s favorite cartridge to hate, the 6.5CM and at 1.2” straight taper I went 16”

My initial barrel didn’t even arrive, rather I got an email letting me know it didn’t pass QC. No problem, I didn’t mind the wait because they shipped my optic fast and it’s a free barrel.

A few weeks later I received my barrel. I had read some good reviews, some not so good reviews but whatever, I was excited.

The barrel didn’t disappoint in the “looks good” department. While others may not like the single pass texture on the barrel I actually like it. I didn’t spring for the nitride finish nor the flutes. I just wanted the free99 barrel.

Eager to get the rifle ready for its first range day I installed it on a Defiance action, or I attempted to. Unfortunately there were lessons to be learned. I had ordered the R700 threads and just inferred that it would fit. Why wouldn’t it? My PVA barrel fit so this should too……well it didn’t fit. Try as I might I couldn’t get it to headspace. So I sent an email to Outlier and I waited…and waited…and waited a little more. A few days passed and I figured I would check my email. Nothing. Well guess what, they never did email. One day I decided to use my phone like an actual phone and I noticed I had missed a call several days ago, I even had a VM…strange…who leaves a VM? Turns out someone from Outlier had taken the time to call and help me sort out my troubles.

I’ve had some pretty good customer service experiences in the pew pew arena, Outlier was second to none.

I called the missed number and immediately got a person, no phone tree, no “press 1 for English” just a real person. Turns out the guy called from his personal number and said to call that number back.

After some questioning it seemed we had the problem sorted out. The Defiance action has different tolerances and the decision was made the barrel would need some finesse. Outlier sent me a pre paid postage and off it went. Just a few days later I was texting Outlier (the personal cell) and everything had been sorted out and the barrel was on the way home.

The barrel arrived quickly, it maybe took 4 days from the time it left me until it returned.

The machine work was great, I was able to headspace the barrel and I was ready to roll!

This barrel is a chonk for sure. If you think m24 is a truck axle, you don’t know truck axles. This barrel, she’s a proper truck axle. The Bravo chassis almost couldn’t handle her….almost. The barrel nut was close but daylight managed to squeeze through.

Now this particular setup isn’t new. It’s been wearing a PVA pre fit and the consensus is clear, Josh builds a fine barrel and mine is no exception. I routinely shoot that barrel 0.25” or better (5 shot groups) so the platform is proven. If the Outlier barrel can’t shoot, it’s the barrel maybe the ammo but it’s not the other parts.

So today was the day, the Outlier shakedown.

Like all free99 barrels it got only the finest break in, just like all my other rifles….I just shot the phucker. 12 rounds down the pipe, not too fast, definitely not slow. Zero cleaning. Zero fuss. Don’t like my methods…..good, cause I don’t like yours.

All warmed up and ready it was time to shoot for groups. I didn’t get a perfect zero but I wasn’t worried and I was expecting some POI shift as I wanted to test all my 6.5 factory ammo.



All groups were 5 shots @ 100yds



I was testing the following:


130 Berger: 0.522”

135 Berger: 0.954”

140 Berger: 0.782”

156 Berger: 1.2-1.5”

120 A-Max: 1.290”


140 A-Max: 0.315”

140 ELD: 0.883”

130 Prime: 0.551”



Here are my results:

Try as I might I could not get the 156 to shoot. Maybe it’s not enough twist?

the group to the far right isn’t my group. A guy at the range wanted to try and all he did was waste my ammo 😕

My final thoughts:

Outlier claims sub MOA and I would consider all this ammo to well accepted as match Ammo. With the exception of Berger 156 and A-Max 120 Outlier held the standard. I’m not sure why it didn’t shoot the 120 melty boys or the 156 Boogers tighter.

I’m very happy with my barrel and the options I selected. If it arrived and fit perfectly from the start I would have written my little review to help others and I would have been happy.

However it didn’t fit, and I’m kinda glad it didn’t. I had the opportunity to really experience what Outlier was really about, and I’ll tell you right now they are about The Golden Rule. From the moment they knew I was having an issue they did everything to help, including a video call to ensure they understood the problem. They didn’t tell me to pound sand, they didn’t create excuses, they didn’t lecture me how a Defiance isn’t a R700. They just asked questions and took care of me…..on a FREE99 barrel. To say I was impressed is an understatement, & to top it off, the barrel shoots as promised.



I wanted to do something to express my satisfaction and that’s why I’m doing this write up.

Hope it helps or just pisses you off.

Buy More Ammo!

Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

So, if I'm seeing this right, they are just popping out clones of SMK and Bergers now. Theory is that if you have difficulty finding what you want in stock, you just get an Aeromatch bullet and you can use your same load.

Super weird though.... I guess bullets aren't protected IP unless they are patented. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding this product.
