    I'm running both 1.200 and 1.250 breech end barrels on my Black Bear. Either is fine according to Ian. Just make sure the thread measurements are on point like I mentioned before.

    @Tony1320, Talked with Ian this weekend and those stands are from PMA Tools. They're called "Cleaning Cradles" and are in the Rifle Cleaning and Maintenance section on PMA's website. Pretty nice rig for a cleaning setup.

    Just make sure when you thread, if your gunsmith uses wires like myself, the measurement is 1.0715", +0.000" or -.002" using .032" wires. THIS HAS TO BE WITHIN THOSE MEASUREMENTS.... Kelbly's machines their actions with extremely close tolerances so make sure your smith understands their hit or...

    --- 19 SEPT 18 ---- Update: The stock inletting has begun and I'm trying to get as many pics as I can to show the steps of converting a 700 footprint over to the Black Bear. In all honesty, the inletting is pretty straight forward so far. With my stock, it's already inletted for an M5 DBM, so...

    Lol, I called Ian and asked what the deal with MPA was. Not saying he made a call, but I did mention guys were interested in getting their hands on one to do their builds and couldn't get a definitive answer.

    Screw spacing is identical to a tradional REM 700 length, but as far as I can tell, I may need to shorten the pillars slightly but not by much. I'm about to inlet a Rem footprint Manners for the Black Bear here shortly (within the next week or so) and will give more info/pictures to show what's...

    I ran a 6 SLR for my 6mm for the past 2 seasons until I spun a 6.5x47 and couldn't deny how easy load development was.... I already find reloading to be a little bit of a nuisance, but with the x47 it's like you throw powder at it and a bullet that'll spin will with your twist rate, and it just...

    That's 100% why I went decided to get the T4A over the PRS. The angle kinda threw me off and the width was a little much for me. I'm in love with my AI AX chassis, just because it fits me better then any traditional stock but I'm starting to come around to them. I felt kinda bad getting a...

    Kelbly's Black Bear Tactical

    -- 13 SEPT 18 -- Black Bear Update Changed my mind on the stock I'm going with. Instead of running a PRS 1/2, I bought a T4A elite from the guys down at Core. Made the decision to switch because I wasn't a fan of how wide the fore end is on the PRS and I wanna do an EFR set up so the the meat...

    Idk what 6mm you're planning on going with, but I love the 6BRX. I'd like to get my hands on a Nucleus to compare it to another 3 lug I've got.

    You wouldn't be wrong with that assessment. I thought of a badger as soon as I saw it. It's definitely pretty though, and a damn tank. My stock will be here on Friday.... PUMPED to shoot this thing

    The TG ejector is a fully mechanical set up, where the bolt has a floating piece that rides in a groove within the bolt face. Best way I can describe the piece is kinda like a small ram that gets pushed forward when the bolt touches the bolt catch. The catch has a small blade built into it...

    Also, I've got an A-5 with the arca rail set up for sale if you might be interested. Ill make you a good deal on it if you plan on running a stock, because we're kinda going through the same situation. Try and save you some money for inletting it.

    -- I'll be with Ian and Phil this weekend for the Expo down at Arena. I'll make sure to ask Phil what the deal is with the chassis situation. Not sure if you're gonna be there, but I'll make sure to post his answer about it on here either way. XLR, Kelbly's, McMillan, Manners, and MPA have all...
