    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Yes, Issue resolved. After test firing pin with the new spring I went back to my shop and started over. Took the firing pin assembly apart and screwed the spring tension all the way down to hard stop. Backed the firing pin assembly off just enough for the slot in the assembly to line up and...

    Kestrel 5700 Elite gun profiles and Link Ap

    WTF!!!! I just spent a long time going through the Link ap and deleted every duplicate profile and made everyone unique. Confirmed, one profile per gun. Closed the ap, reopened the ap, went to Gun Profile Management to check and I'm back to four to six copies of every gun profile, with different...

    Kestrel 5700 Elite gun profiles and Link Ap

    I've been doing a lot of searches and haven't found the answer to a specific question. Append or Overwrite? I've spent a LOT of time getting the profiles on several of my rifles tweaked so the Kestrel and range results match. I've been doing the tweaks in the iPhone Links ap. When done hit...

Had (6) no fires out of (40) Not much better than previous. Went back to range next day and ran (40) SK Long Range and had zero no fires, so (40) for (40)...

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Talked to Vudoo and gave full details. She said my Gen2 probably has a 18# spring, their shipping a 22# spring out today expedited. If the spring doesn't fix the issue they'll take care of it then.

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    I have to admit, I have not seen that chart before. That's very helpful. I just pulled four of the no bang rounds out of my pocket I saved that weren't fired in the friends gun. Two were Eley and hits definitely looked lite. Two were SK, one looked lite, one looked stronger. All the hits extend...

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Latest update. Mounted the new 30MOA scope base and off to the club. Ran into a shooting buddy that is a highly competitive shooter with a long history shooting Vudoo. Started off again with the Eley Target and third round, no bang. Had another no bang with that mag of ten. Tried some of his SK...

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Interesting conversations. My Base gun is a Savage B22. Went with that gun to start with because I have couple other rifles with the MDT ACC chassis and like the chassis. Photo attached of the Savage. Went through the whole process with the Savage of eight different ammo's and (100) rounds of...

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Tough to tell regarding the primer. Only one round had a piece of primer fall out, others are difficult to tell as orange primer in the bottom reflect brass color. Regarding age of action, don't think it's very old but don't know actual age Ser# is VGW 45## if others know their # and age for...

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Tough to get a good photo but here are the three rounds that FTF. Pin hits look good, haven't torn the rounds apart yet to see if I can tell primer condidtion.

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Justin, good advice. I did save each of the FTF rounds to compare pin impacts. Now looks like time to pull apart and find out what the inside of a LR round looks like.

    Failure to fire Eley Ammo in V22

    Finally made the jump from Base Class and will be shooting OG. Made the road trip to DST Precision and left a lot of my money behind with Troy. Troy had a used Vudoo V-22 barreled action with a 20" MTU barrel he took on trade. Mounted in MPA BA Comp chassis with Gun Candy finish, Triggertech...

    AR-10 308 mag issues

    Been working on finalizing a new PSA PA10 308 build. There's typically a journey to get these things tuned just right for gas blocks, failure to feed, failure to eject etc. Then add a can tweak some more. I've been encountering a different failure to feed issue. I always run BAD levers on all my...
