204 Ruger Proof CF barrel tested

Barrel is a 20” 1 in 10 twist, has 50 rounds on it up to now. Did a quick break in. Sharing this because I couldn’t find anything on it.
Only running factory loads at the time to break in and collect brass. It seemed to favor the 36 gr prairie enemy a little more breaking it in but they are nonexistent right now so I loaded up on Hornady’s 40gr vmax ammo. The 10 shot group was the other day, no cold bore warm up or anything just laid down 10 shots in a row. Mirage got terrible last 2 shots.

Fatboy Tripod Head Question

What is the bolt size that this head mounts up to. My department issues bog tripods and I am tapped out on money after fitting the bill for the rifle and other equipment. I have found an adapter to change to a ball head. What I am wanting to do is put the invert 40 head on the adapter and when I am able I will buy the legs. The adapter uses 3/8-16.

If the fatboy does not work with the adapter what is another good ball head that will fit this adapter. I am trying to not just throw money away and still make the best of the equipment issued.

SOLD Noveske N4 12.5 6arc

Up for grabs is my brand new noveske N4 12.5 6 arc. Bought the rifle brand new and only put 20 rounds down range to sight in. It is in new condition and ready for its new home. For the rifle alone I’m asking 2800. I can include the vortex razor 1-10 on a geiselle mount for a combined price of 4,500. Shipped from my FFL to yours same day as payment. IMG_3394.jpeg

First PRS match next month, interested in opinions on what to shoot

A friend of mine and I decided to sign up for a PRS 2 day match next month in Cambria CA. I've just ventured out past 300 yards in the last couple of years and am comfortable with my shooting ability. I have zero expectations as far as ranking, I simply want the experience of doing it. I do however want to have a decent idea of what to expect. I've read the rules, no issues there. I've been reading some posts on here for first matches (read all 3 pages of Raptoraddicts post) and watched a few Youtube videos from that post. I originally intended to use my Remington 700 in .308 Win but the more I look into it the more I'm having second thoughts. It has a standard floor plate and is not magazine fed. On top of that it's single feed as my hand loads are 2.908" to get to within .020" to the lands so even if i switched bottom metal mags won't work. Thinking about switching guns and using my 6.5 Grendel gas gun. It's lighter, less recoil and has a very similar bullet drop as compared to my .308. I don't think ill have a good time trying to single feed a bolt gun from the odd positions that it seems I'm going to encounter. What are your opinions on gun selection and any other advice for a first PRS match is certainly appreciated. Thanks.

Firearms Defiance barreled action (SAC & Spartan) barrels

This is a brand new action and (2) brand new unfired barrels. Both are 25". These aren't prefits. They were chambered specifically for this action by Spartan and SAC.

Defiance Deviant ELITE (controlled round feed) this action was before the buy out - $1695

Area 419 Hellfire brake (6mm) - $170
Trigger Tech Diamond (curved) - $315

Bartlein MTU 7.5 twist blank - $425
Short Action customs chamber and muzzle services in 6x47 Lapua (setup for 105s) - $600 (this is the barrel that is currently installed
Cerakote Barrel - $100

Bartlein 7.5tw M40/M24 blank - $425
Spartan Rifles chamber and muzzle services in 6 Dasher (lapua brass) - $500
Cerakote Barrel - $100

Total investment on my part = $4330

As you can see I've got a ton into the setup. I also have 700pcs of unfired Lapua 6br brass and a set of Forster 6 Dasher dies i can offer for a good price to the buyer.

As of right now I'm not separating anything so please don't ask. The barrels are chambered for this action. Selling the brass does me no good if I still have the barrel etc.

Total for action, (2) barrels, trigger, Area 419 brake, and shipping to lower 48 = $3000
