In racing that's called avoidable contact.

Right now those chassis are only available in the U.S., and they are shipping this week.

Yes. The UK proof marks would the identifying feature. US barrels will have a S/N starting with "W".

AI is sourcing very few barrels from L-W the past three years. Following BREXIT, AI set up a barrel operation in one its facilities in Portsmouth, UK to make cut rifle barrels. Most of the AI rifles sold in the US have blanks sourced from Bartlein and finished at WIN Tactical in Orchard Park...

Yes. This and the fact that we were between chronographs. I had given away a Lab Radar and had to wait on a new Garmin XERO to arrive. This took longer than we would like but we are always going to be thorough in checking a customer rifle. The velocities Tim provided are consistent for our test...

Probably not, but maybe you should call Badger Ordnance. Here's the phone number, +1 (816) 421-4956. This is the Accuracy International AT-X thread.

My experience is that that vast majority of owners should not undertake adjusting triggers regardless of the make of the trigger.

Not every time, but I do take my rifles down pretty far a couple of time a year for detailed maintenance. The rest of the time I flush the trigger from the top and blow it out with compressed air at 20 psi or less.

YES

Why would we lie to ourselves?

And this would be Charles? If so, the comments on your trigger in the RGA log are as follows: "Failed to reset. Excessive oil, dirt, and grit inside the trigger housing. 2nd stage force screw was bottomed out." With the 2nd stage screw at max force, I'm not surprised it would not operate with...

YES

Years of neglect. It's oil and solvent that accumulate inside the trigger housing if it isn't given regular maintenance. I can't believe this one still worked.

This is lifted from the trigger user manual. The brake cleaner flushing method is my preferred approach. If the trigger is in the gun, I set the gun upright using the bipod or a maintenance cradle and flush from the top letting gravity carry the cleaner and any debris out the bottom. I do prefer...
