Damn... savage. You aren't wrong, but if I have to shoot a dinky ass short action cartridge it'll be the 6.5 creedmoor .. I reserve my .308 bullets for a real cartridge.like the 300 Norma. 🤣
I’ll see your ridiculous amount of powder consumption and premature throat wear and raise you the time of flight of a wounded homing pigeon

No way is that a 308 projectile, way to sleek and it would have a bc much better than 1.2 G7 or whatever your 308 is rocking. Here's a more accurate picture of a 308 in flight:

You:
Ranging the target just to have the info transfer to your kestrel, then Bluetooth to your phone, spit out .2 MIlL on your fancy watch just to make a 200 yard shot on a 4 moa gong

Vs

Me:
5 stages behind still trying to use my reticle to range the target like it’s 2002 only to lob a projectile with the ballistic coefficient of a wheelbarrow 8 feet to the right

How do you like the Elite Iron bipod compared to the tbac?
More stable , better for accuracy etc. Takes longer to deploy. Less versatile you can’t slide it back closer to you. Takes longer to remove

Tbac is quick , stable enough ,

I like the elite a lot for steadiness / long small shots but the reason I finally got a arca mount to put on my AI is for sideways rooftops at matches. I had cyke bit they are junk sold them. There was a rooftop ^ you shoot left side then right side at MKM. kicked my ass with the tbac. Lol. The elite swivels all the way so will be perfect if I ever have time to shoot matches /practice

I like them enough that 1 has a permanent hone on my AWM

The elite iron works until the mount starts to flex and bend and the ring starts to contact the barrel....

The correct term I believe you are looking for is , Remington 700 in a aics chassis ... Not awm 😜

Aw dang! I did not know that about the EI. Shit I was planning on pulling the trigger on one. Thanks for that..
 
Shot with a guy at the NF elr challenge last year who's ei had to be bent back every stage because it was bending and contracting the barrel... @Mr. F did you ever get that one fixed?
Yeah I'll have to withhold judgement on this one till Mr. F checks in.. I've got an an EI and at its thinnest the mount steel is .12". Not saying it can't happen, but it had to be an excessive amount of force applied somewhere. I'd think the forend on the AXSR would pop first.

I have used my EI for years with no flex or failure of any kind. It works as well today as it did when new.

Did you buy the lightweight or panning model or the regular one? How you can get it to flex is beyond me.

Bought an MDA Ckye Pod recently and I am also pretty impressed with that one.

It wasn't mine it was @Mr. F 's however I did inspect it and it was bending and flexing from the steel that came from the mount to the ring. I also shot it and watched it move poi when the ring came in contact with the barrel
 
Okay gents

Did I get lucky? Is this a SFP bolt body?

Numbers on bolt body say 20974

Only way to tell is to pin gauge the fp hole on the bolt or it you have another SFP see how much clearance there is around the tip when it's protruded

Looks large to me eyeballing it tho
