    Thanks, edited and added links. Works fine on desktop, looks like mobile doesn't play well with embedded imgur links.

    Looks like the Nucleus bolt head will fit in the Archimedes but not the other way around. Has ARC/Ted said anything regarding that topic? Nucleus on the left, Archimedes on the right. These are 0.535" (nucleus) and 0.378" (archimedes) bolts.

    According to the parts list included in the box it's a 30# striker spring.

    Yes, this is something I demonstrated when I installed the barrel and the firing pin stopped falling when closing the bolt. I want to be clear, when my Nucleus + TT without barrel installed firing pin dropped it was ONLY when running the bolt very hard/fast and even then it was not repeatable...

    Inform me instead of mock me? The firing pin drop wasn't repeatable once the barrel was properly headspaced.

    My Nucleus + TT Diamond without a barrel did this until I put a barrel in it. No issues 600+ rounds later.

    Nucleus compatibility with Magpul Pro LA or Magnum Pmags

    Ah. Missed that bit. It's certainly a fitment issue and I'd start with sanding on the $40 magazine vs the $1000 action.

    Nucleus compatibility with Magpul Pro LA or Magnum Pmags

    Huh. My Accurate Mags work fine in a Nucleus, maybe they're out of spec... Or maybe the magpul mags are a little thick around the feed lips and need to be sanded down a to fit some actions using AICS pattern stocks. From the Magpul product page: PLEASE NOTE: Not compatible with smaller base...

    PVA Status Updates: Hancock Rifle & NUCLEUS Barreled Action

    Cool. Thanks. I guessed somewhere around 0.269" for about 0.002" tension but without having fired brass in hand it's tough to guess. My typical experience with Lapua brass is to add 0.028" to the bullet diameter then subtract desired tension.
