For you guns hunting with your fix, what sling are you using? Not looking for a “tactical” multi-use sling. Just comfortable, minimal sling that somewhat fits the aesthetic of the rifle.

I'm using the blue force gear sling with the pad on it. It's a little tacticool but does the job for me in my stalk hunts.
Yeah if you like waiting for 9+ months to get your sling in. I like mine but not that much.
I'm running the Vickers padded sling too. Fairly comfortable, and the pull tab is nice for quick adjustments.
It contains chemicals banned across Europe. It’s not just 4350. There is an entire list somewhere but I know it also includes fairy dust also known as Varget ?
Here is a picture. I extended the velcro onto the magwell flare to create a bit of a ramp so that an inserted magazine doesn't "peel it off".
Reminds me of some '70s films.
I just spewed some water across my dogs and wife: that was my EXACT first thought, too!
I said I liked it, just not enough to wait 9+ MONTHS to receive an order....yes I believe I could do better on the communication and logistics side of things.
Did my first barrel swap on my rifle....took less than half a beer...

The 16in b/t 308 barrel is still tempting. Part of my issue is that I don’t know how much I would really switch the barrel. Then I feel like I wasted money having my 22 creed staying in the closet
IMHO the 16" barrel configuration is where this gun shines. I've got a 24" proof barrel and do love to shoot it; however, I bought this gun for hunting. With the 16" and a trash panda suppressor, and low variable power optic....#BestHuntingRig
You won't be receiving one.
@Kevin Brittingham - Did anyone pick up the swag bag you dropped at the park?
I think ya'll need to make some hats with that 8-bit Fix on it!

Yes! We are working on hats, hoodies, etc. now.
Members,
Personal attacks and butthurt crusades in the technical forums will not be tolerated.
Stick to the topics and stick to what is relevant to the forum and the shooting community.
No judgment passed on who's right or who's wrong. This just simply is not the place for that kind of mudslinging.
Take the trash to Facebook, where it belongs.

If I get another "Block" of reports like we woke up to today, this thread is locked

I am new to the 6.5 creedmoor caliber. Can someone recommend a bore guide that works well with The Fix? Also what size patch do you use. Thank you in advance.
I use one of these. It works really well and locks up in the ejection port

Just came back from bear hunting in Montana with the Fix. Was a joy to carry especially through thick brush.
We staked out a spot a few hundred yards across a lake from where we saw a bear. I found that using my Hatch Bipod fully extended into the pickup bed gave a really nice stable position. We were downwind and hiding behind the truck. Unfortunately the bear didn't come back.....

I use a hatch bipod for hunting and never thought to drop it in back of truck like that. I usually toss a bag on the hood but it’s hard on windshields. Great idea!! Thanks.
16" Bartlein/Tooley barrel in 308. I' getting 2715fps using Barnes 150 TTSX bullets, so 16" is perfectly adequate for most hunting distances.
I have a 24" Proof for longer distance / range play.
Did anyone get a cherry bomb when they ordered barrels? I thought they came with them and now there is a note saying no cherry bombs
Did you have to put tape or Velcro in the mag well lol?
Looking forward to finally getting to the range Monday to shoot my Fix. I switched the barrel to .308. It didn’t come with instructions so I watched Kit Badgers video on you tube which helped. Any input on about how many rounds it takes to break in the barrel?

Just an FYI...there are instructions on Q’s website that you can also probably print out as well for keep.
I did about 100-150 rounds to break in my 308. Some shoulders might not be able to handle it due to the lack of manliness. Enjoy and work on fundamentals because the 308 in this light of a setup will expose you.
This rifle just makes me smile.
That is beautiful countryside wow. Must be some varmints to pick off though.
Just picked up today. 16” 6.5. Only got to put one round through it but I can tell I’m going to love this rifle.
