Finally able to knock the rust off. Rust is thick. $75 barrel should be a hammer with someone that can shoot behind it.

What’s that side rail for ?
What’s the side rail for ?
Freaking Lollipop Guild killing me with Discourage
That side rail has sling mount; i did not use a bag rider today. Had a sotek one that i was not too found off. With a schmedium heavy and short atlas i made it work.What’s the side rail for ?
Where’s your bag rider? Where’s your sling mount ?
Something (brass shaving, etc) stuck in the lugs of the locking ring?What would make a bolt “sticky”. Seems like it started after it got left out in snow /sleet at a match.
Have cleaned and recleabed. Tried oil grease hornady one shot etc. Doesn’t look like the bolt stop is mushroomed.
Bought a second atx used. One serial number away from being consecutive. Much much much smoother. First one has a pile of rounds through it so don’t think it’s about being broken in.
Thoughts ?
Have you swapped the sticky bolt into the second rifle to confirm it's the bolt itself, and not the action or locking ring of the first rifle?What would make a bolt “sticky”. Seems like it started after it got left out in snow /sleet at a match.

Yes feels “gummy” sliding it back and forth.
I’ve been cleaning with gun scrubber before trying various oils or dry Maybe I need to use something different
Try acetone. Might have some paint residue in there.Yes feels “gummy” sliding it back and forth.

That sounds super European; no i don’t do thatAm I the only one who wet patches molybdenum in his barrel & firing chamber so he doesn't have to carbon scrub?
I hope so. Man the moly fad ended like 15 years ago. I didn’t know you could even buy it anymore.Am I the only one who wet patches molybdenum in his barrel & firing chamber so he doesn't have to carbon scrub?
I'm quite the fan of it, as someone who uses it in his sports cars as well. I don't see it as a fad. And I've had positive results with it.I hope so. Man the moly fad ended like 15 years ago. I didn’t know you could even buy it anymore.

Oil analysis and science says otherwise. If it's stupid and it works, then it's not stupid.It's freaking retarded..... Hard stop huskydriver actual out
I would bet the carbon build up somewhere is what causes it. Moisture causes that blue/green crap to build especially when shooting suppressed in high humidity and temp swings.I would say the new to me one is like KY or Wet
And the ok’d o s is like no lube no fore play no nothing
I guess AI didn’t develop the AI that bombproof
Burt managed to break it
I think that deserves an award right there
I think ol' Burt has won enough "awards" on this site from the administration already...

any vendors with July 4th deals on barrels, my proof 6cm is at the end of the road
Did you shave down the reptilia diving board to fit the GII razor objective bell?Hey all,
I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction for custom made barrels for the post-2014 AI AXMC? I have a long action currently with a 6.5CM barrel, but was looking at the possibility of a 6.5 x 47 or 25 x 47 Lapua barrel if those are possible.
Thanks.

Who is pvaPVA is doing one rn. Not as good as their bf sale was, but the ospreys Ive had are pretty nice barrels.
Patriot Valley Arms, I believe?Who is pva

Unfortunately, that's me bombing that (and most of) the stages.
Yes I took the dremel to the underside of the diving board. It was a learning experience as my first dremel project but it worksDid you shave down the reptilia diving board to fit the GII razor objective bell?![]()
... but I knew better than to try and follow it up.
Amazing rifle, where did you get that very nice barrel decal ?
