    22GT load data

    I compared the Hornady 88 ELDM to the Berger 85.5 Hybrid the other day, powder was H4350. Preliminary data shows the 85.5 is much more consistent. Previous best charge with the 88 ELDM was 35.0gr. With the 85.5, charge of 34.2 and 35.0 shot tight little .3” groups, and the other charges of...

    Discreet carbine carrying case?

    Vertx VTAC rifle scabbard might work. More designed as a car seat back mount than as a transport case. But is pretty non-descript. https://vertx.com/vtac-rifle-scabbard

    Kelby, Defiance, or better option?

    Building up a 300 PRC on an Atlas long action. Bix n Andy Tac Sport Pro 2 stage. Just got finished filling the Bravo stock (W3 fore end) with a mixture of lead shot and duct seal. Got the stock weight up to 8.2 lbs, with no vibration. Have dies, brass and bullets. Waiting on barrel, and...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    Thumb rest made out of bent aluminum. Covered with a layer of gorilla tape. Fastened to rifle with double stick foam tape and has a hole drilled to fit under the adjacent bolt. Cheap and effective. I like the thumb rest higher than one attached to the grip. I went back to the factory ergo grip.

    22GT load data

    That is good data. Do you have a QL run for H4350, 88ELDMs and Alpha 22GT brass? I’m curious how the 35gr load looks.

    The Unofficially Official Sub-Caliber/“Micro Bore” thread!

    I built a Tikka T3X repeater in 20VT off a 223 CTR action. CZ 527 magazines (221 fireball) inside a magazine holder which fits the Tikka mag well. Now it’s in a KRG Bravo. Works great with 1:11 twist and 32-40gr bullets and CFE223. Mags run well if you run the bolt quickly. If you run the...

    22GT load data

    I think that is the sweet spot. I just looked up my earlier targets. At the 30 round point, that same load chrono-ed at 2942fps. Sped up to 3088 by 190 rounds, quite a change.

    22GT load data

    I only have 190 rounds on the barrel. I expect 2000 rounds +/- from the barrel. Shoots as well or better than my 22BR, which shoots the same bullet, but with 29.0 Varget at 3000fps. I might go slower on the 22GT. See if I can find a node around 3020-3040fps.

    Did you send them in to AINA or Mile High?

    Kelby, Defiance, or better option?

    I chose Kelbly several years ago. I have 5 now. They are really top notch. The QC is very high, so you can order prefit barrels. Some Defiance can do prefits, some can’t. The Kelbly actions can interchange barrels, sometimes a spacer washer is needed to mount a Black Bear/Kodiak/Panda barrel...

    Accuracy International AT vs. AT-X, help me decide **Update: bought an AT-X, first range trip added**

    I put my AI safety in the middle position and cycled the action. I learned that the bolt lug and handle drag was nil. The effort running the bolt handle was almost entirely due to cocking the firing pin. Compared to other 3-lug actions (Sako TRG-22, BAT 3L) the AI required more effort. Not a...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    My 22GT barrels arrived. I’m breaking the first one in now. Seems to feed just fine. More time will tell — stock magazines, tuned for 6.5 Creed body taper.
