This kit helps eliminate the stray powder kernels during hopper loading of the SuperTrickler and clearing out the hopper without having to shake the unit and try and open the trap door with one hand while holding over a container.
The funnel is a very light press fit into the top of the SuperTrickler by way of having a 3 deg. taper on the mating diameter.

Form fit and function tests were completed by another SH board member, I have several units printed up and ready.

I need a lighter weight, 6.5Creed bbl, 7 or 7.5 twist for heavies for an impact action. Would consider a 22-26” steel Rem Varmint/Sendero fluted barrel, carbon fiber, or something similar in profile and weight in the 3-4lb range.

In trade I have a Meridith Rifles cut 1:7.5 twist Brux barrel, 26”, MTU, 6.11 lbs. 590 rounds fired. Absolute hammer with Berger 153.5 bullet. See group pics.

Thanks for looking.
Nick-

I got my tools ready.

1. Aero Solus action wrench

2. Barrel vise

3. 7/8th socket

4. Very large Torque Wrench with breaker bar


I'm honestly to tired to make this a long thread, but holy hell what does Aero do to their stock barrels? Do they weld them in?

- I tried it normal. The barrel slipped and ruined my finish
- I tried wrapping painters tape around the barrel. The barrel rotated and ripped up the tape and now the barrel needs goo gone.
- I tried heat, lots of heat. Eventually I burned my finger but the barrel still slipped in the vise.
- I tried wrapping the barrel in sand paper. I went out and got actual fucking sand to put between the barrel and the barrel vise.

Thankfully there is a machine shop downstairs from my friends shop. Now it was their turn.

- They tried a barrel vise block in a massive vise. It still slipped.
- They tried putting the vise block 90 degrees (vertical) in the largest vise i've ever seen with a 26'' breaker bar. It still slipped.

Enter the machine shop guys wife

Question: How much do you care about the stock barrel? Answer: I'd like it to shoot, but it already looks like hell I can't sell it.

- She takes it over to a belt sander, and I shit you not, sands two flat spots in the barrel.
- The barrel goes back in the giant vise block, this time raw, at 90 degrees, with the 26'' breaker bar.

IT FINALLY FUCKING GIVES WAY!!!!!



In the end the stock barrel looked like this.

Putting the new barrel in was shockingly easy. Swab some antiseize, put barrel in barrel vise, hand tighten action, use action wrench + torque wrench set at 75 ft/lbs, add chassis and optic and poof!




But my dark lady looked ready for the range tomorrow.

24'' Bartlien barrel + muzzle break.


If anyone asks you to help them change your aero solus barrel, and it came from the factory as a barreled action? Laugh at them.

Ok guys and gals let’s hear what everyone’s reload data is looking like for the new 22 arc with the new 62gr eld/vt bullet. I know from my 20in proof it sure likes the factory and pushing them at about 3200fps.

I have an Accuracy International AX50 and it has the Factory 2 Stage Match Trigger. I was just was wondering if there is a PDF or video on how to properly adjust the 2nd Stage to a lower setting? I don't see anything out there on the web so your input would be very appreciated. I am happy with the 1st stage and the wall it hits before moving to the 2nd stage, but its a little on the heavy side and I need to know exactly how to properly adjust it down. This is an earlier 2016 AX50 and not the newer AX50 ELR version if that makes a difference?

Thanks in advance.

Hey all:

I've been giving the Leupold scopes a hard look. On paper, this one seems to be exactly what I'm looking for:

https://www.leupold.com/mark-4hd-2-5-10x42-m5c3-ffp-tmr-riflescope

My intent is to use it for daytime target shooting from 250-1000 yards. After studying the reticle subtensions, the non-illuminated TMR has a much thinner aiming point that the illuminated version of the same reticle (it's twice as thick).

I'm curious to hear what people's experiences are with the non-illuminated TMR. It is thin enough to hit 1000 yards on larger steel targets (like 12 inches+)?

Thanks!

So, I have every type of Double Alpha Bullet Dropper die... But in my experience, none of them have ever worked well with 6mm bullets.

I load my match ammo on my Dillon 750 and wanted to automate the process (Mark 7 autodrive en route) but the bullet feeding has always been the hiccup.

Not anymore!

Bullet Dropper Setup:

Lee Inline Bullet Die (for 6mm)

DAA MBF Dropper Assembly

I used a 1/2" ID nylon bushing to mate the Lee dee + DAA assembly (it's press fit). Tighten the set screw.

(This setup is assuming you have the MBF... So, you may need the DAA Output tube depending on what you already have. And, of course, the MBF feeder plate)

I want to get a BT65-NC Gen. 2 CAL Atlas Bipod and use a RRS SC ARC clamp to mount it to my ARCA rail. Noticed on the retail website that it says:

* It is NOT compatible with the Magpul® QR Rail Grabber (MAG1196). Limited compatibility with Really Right Stuff’s SC-ARC Bipod Clamp due to function interference.

Any idea what is the limited compatibility issue they are referring to and is it real or even an actual issue? Does it not fully cant or something? Seems like other people on here have used the same 2 items together and I didnt see anyone else listing any known issues.

Manners EH-1 in good condition, I used in my Aero Solus and had to dremel a spot to clear the bolt release, the spot is pictured and I have priced to reflect the spot, also when I got out to take pictures it looks like it has a pen mark on it which is also puctured. Remington 700 SA inlet and clones, sendero contour, inletted for M5 bottom metal. $600 shipped and insured.

Some of you guys probably already know this, but I’ve been looking for a way to attach my GARMIN chronograph to my recently installed ARCA rails on a couple of rifles. A YouTube video pointed me out to this $20 made in China rail you can get off of Amazon. I am all for made I. USA and area 419 and all that but there ain’t no way Im paying $150 for an Uber clutch bougie mount for my chronograph.

This thing was way too long and way too heavy so I put it in the ice and hacksaws a couple of inches off of one end. Works like a charm.

I’ve a hankering for a RimX for NRL22 and PRS22 type matches. I want a long heavy barrel to get it to balance properly. I think I want a fitted barrel and not a prefit. I’d send in an action or buy a barreled action.

Due to quality ammo availability, I want a chamber that is forgiving/good with the SKs, Lapuas and Eleys. I understand this is a compromise and won’t be benchrest quality with any of it.

I’ve seen some videos of Desert Precision Gunworks rifles and the reamer he uses seems to work well with a variety of ammunition and allows for decent bolt closure. I don’t know if this is a reamer to his specs or a standard match reamer by JGS(?) or whoever he uses.

Needless to say, DPG is in consideration, but I certainly don’t know all the great RimX builders out there. Who else should I be considering?

For 2025 I am going to try and build two replica snipers using Remington M700/40-X short actions:

First, a "shooter" M40 replica for CMP vintage sniper matches - so I can keep my Chuck Mawhinny commemorative rifle mostly in the safe, given its increasing collectability.
Secondly, I hope to build a poor man's M24ish (with a short action) - so I will use my M24R a little less, given its collectability.

What I picked up last month to assist in those two projects is what I suspect is a 1969/70 era Remington 40X repeater that the previous owner turned into a poor man's M24ish rifle, complete with an HS Precision stock and a tan camo job. I have an extra RR prefix M700 receiver (short action 308) that I had refinished years ago, and that will be the base of my M24ish rifle. The 40-X has a clip slotted reciever, so that receiver + bolt + trigger + trigger guard will go towards that top wooden stock (BO M40 mount also shown). I can thank USMCSGT0331 for the vintage Remington buttplate for that wood stock - but it needs a bit of sanding to slim it down to the original M40 profile...and a front swivel.

Sort of a nuance, but the 1960s era M700 bolts are a little thinner in the wrist that the later bolts, and the checkering on the knob runs in a diagonal pattern, whereas the later M700 bolts are thicker at the wrist, and the checking runs in vertical and horizontal pattern.

I have no idea when this 40-X was made, but the previous owner thought it was 1969 based on some other original rifles.

The funny thing is the owner of the 40-X painted the rifle in a color and pattern very similar to my M24R shown on the bottom with its original camo job from its prior service life. Sort of an interesting coincidence, but I like it...He said he got the last 1/2" thick HS Precision buttpad marked “Remington” that HS Precision had on hand. It was under someone's desk, but he snagged it, and it looks better than the 1" versions.


For those who noticed, yes, the old 40-X target rifles from the 1960s had 27.5" SS barrels, and thus I will have my gunsmith cut this down to 24" and re-crown it so it looks more like an M24 barrel. I'll of course have the Redfield front sight block re-installed on the shortended barrel. In the end I hope have a long action M24R as a collection piece, and a short action M24ish as more of a range toy. Might use my extra M3A Ultra scope on the M24ish, but it's currently on my Mk 14 Mod 0 project, but I have most other parts - aside from the Sunny Hill bottom metal.


So, that should keep me busy in 2025....just need to find a proper Bartlein barrel for the M40 replica, and the Sunny Hill 520 bottom metal for the M24ish...

Had these laying around from prize tables, trades, etc. Just consolidating since I won't end up using them.
