    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    You're going to get a brand new revised chassis, Barrett CS is excellent. Honestly, probably the best thing to happen to anyone with the early chassis'.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    I did the same test with an mk22 and got almost zero measurable POI change. Tripods can have an impact but that has much more to do with how the gun is moving in recoil.

    Concern about MK22 handguard cracking during first barrel change

    Yup, unfortunately a well documented issue with those early receivers. Having first hand experience with Barrett CS I suspect they'll take care of you swiftly. I ran into an abnormal ejection issue due to some out of spec brass (from a very reputable manufacturer), they took in my barrel kit...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Strange how many MRADs are in civilian hands with no reports of this happening. I would think Barrett is taking a hard look at redesigning their trigger; at least they are easy to swap.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    I can't say for sure if the AM338 will thread on but my guess is that it's compatible. With that said, if you have a MK22 I'd just wait for the right cans to be available.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    I've tested with different bipod locations and a tripod and haven't seen a zero shift either. I still need to test with a bag on a barricade but I can't imagine that's a whole lot different than what I've already done.

    Barrel wear or a manufacturing problem?

    Worst thing about Corvettes are the other owners 😂

    KAC vs Radian Model 1 vs JP enterprises ctr-02

    JP is a gamer gun. KAC is a military rifle. Pick whatever suits your fancy.

    Could I make this into a cool “clone”?

    Crane Spec Gas Port .070 Mil-Spec Buffer Spring H2 Buffer That combo is about as proven as it gets, so start trying to sort out where things went wrong.

    AXSR Action screws

    Always a fight with any sort of service on an AI. I had a tough time with Mile High last time something broke.

    Current Surgeon vs AI Action

    Vivacious Stallion posted about first hand experience of an AXSR going down in a match. AI failures happen, and they are certainly not all in a "trust me, it happens a lot" scenario. With that said, AI's are perfectly fine rifles but they aren't markedly better in harsh conditions than a 700...
