Accessories Do you have a switchlug action in a Grayboe pheonix? If so you need this

Someone out there has to have a setup close to this 😂 SA zues in a Grayboe pheonix 2.0. Had this made and I never use it. It’s pretty slick so I thought I’d see if someone out there happened to have a similar set up.
Holds 2 bolts and 2 24” barrels, room for a can, mags and other accessories as well. You’ll likely need to trim it for your scope. Custom made by “GunFoam”, Fits a vault 700. This is for foam insert only. Looking to get $125 TYD, I believe I paid $225. $250 for the vault 700 and foam

AB Quantum and Kestrel 5700 elite x issues

I’m having AB Quantum and Kestrel 5700 elite x issues… it’s probably operator issues.

Tall target test good, I have a Doppler for my mv, firmware is good, and my custom drag model is off by a few tenths at distance (800-1000). In the app I just correct the ballistics using cdf because I know my mv is good. Easy peasy and works everytime no problem.
I have had a kestrel for a while but never used it but recently decided I was decent enough to possibly get some use out of it. Send my profile to the kestrel and it’s off by .3 mil at 1000. It’s like my cdf didn’t transfer to the kestrel? Also I noticed that even when I turn the pin off and up my Bluetooth the environmentals don’t update in my phone app. I have to manually update them.

I’ve been able to get the kestrel really close to my app solutions by creating a new profile, using g7, and then manipulating mv (inside 600yds) or BC (600+). I don’t like this because what if I go shoot in the mountains and have a velocity change? I can’t put in the actual mv because I already had to play with the actual mv to get the kestrel tried. The app is so easy… I must be doing something wrong in the kestrel? Is there a way to manually enter cdf in kestrel with the custom drag curve? Help!!!

SOLD WTS- Trijicon 4.5-30 FFP Mil

Recently received this scope brand new. Mounted, shot 6 rounds and realized I’m probably not going to use it and my brakes and shocks are smoked on my truck.

The glass is phenomenal. Pass it on to someone who will appreciate it. Currently in some Hawkins 34mm rings(lights, 1.27” H) which are included. Come with original everything, tenebrex and sunshade. Will update pics tomorrow.

$1500 shipped via Venmo or Zelle.

Apparent over pressure from mild load

G'day all

Im scratching my head on this one. Need some assistance.

Running a 6.5 PRC
28" Custom barrel SAAMI Chamber (.533 web)
on tikka t3 action.

153.5 Berger Hybrid Target
ADI 2217 (H1000) at 50.5grn (4.5grn below book max)
Surplus Indian Army LRP
Norma Brass trimmed to 2.015"
Loaded neck OD = .2935
Shoulder bumped back 0.002" after full length resize using SAC bushing die and mandrel
COAL 3.05"
Approx 25 thou jump to lands
Case capacity measured to 70.5grn h20

Velocity measured to 2915fps via Xero chrono which is super fast at this charge weight according to the book...
Using GRT this load is showing a pretty mild pressure curve...and certainly well below max


But, I have been getting excessive pressure signs; from the minimum charge upto 52.5grn
Heavy bolt lift/clickers
Cratered primers
Blown primer x2 once with a stuck case and torn rim from extractor claw
Ejector swipes
Primer pockets lose/unuseable after 2 firings on some pieces of brass.

Before you crucify me for running over pressure I have tried 2 different bullets and 2 different powders starting low and working higher. All showing signs of OP. 50.5grn has been fairly stable except for the clickers.

Really the only other variable to change is the brass (I've heard Norma can be very hit/miss on its QC and often produces soft brass) and I am heavily leaning towards this as the problem I am facing and wondering if anyone else thinks could be the issue...
However it dosnt explain the vast increase in velocity I am recording compared to what the book is saying...

Any insight on wtf is going wrong with this would be helpful. I have thought of everything I know and will be first to admit I don't know everything.

SOLD Vudoo V-22 Gen 2 20” Ace MTU Foundation

Recently re-acquired this rifle back after selling to my buddy as a back up for his Gen 1. Likely has less than 3k rounds since I didn’t shoot it a whole lot, and neither did he. 20” MTU Ace barrel threaded 1/2x28 with thread protector, 90° action, will come with a Bix n Andy Tacsport single stage trigger.

Foundation Centurion purchased from a user here. Fits both Rim X and Vudoo as confirmed by Foundation. It is the light fill. Has some silicone residue in the holes in the forend as the previous owner had weights in them. Hawkins M5 DBM with the long latch installed for feeding. Full length aluminum arca rail. 12rd aluminum magazine.

Prefer to sell as package but if I have a buyer for the barreled action and the stock, will part out that way too.

Whole rifle minus optic rings and suppressor: 2400 shipped

Barreled action with magazine and trigger: 1500 shipped

Foundation with bottom metal and arca rail: 950 shipped.


If you are interested in the whole rifle with the K318i, I can cut a deal on that too.

Open to offers.

Berger 153.5’s

I got some Berger 153.5 in the other day to try out in my 6.5x284 shehane bench rifle. Figured it would be a good candidate with that BC behind that cartridge. Just did a ladder charge 3 shot groups at 100yds to check my speeds with V555. Seated it .010 off the lans and I was surprised. Next step is to check groups at 300-400yds but has anyone else experienced this bullet to be that forgiving? Didn’t matter what charge I had behind it. It just shot.
