    Nucleus Light Primer Strikes

    I’m running a BnA TacSport two stage with the 16lb spring without issue with Federal 215M primers.

    22 creedmoor

    I use a Forster 6 Creed sweater and Whidden 22 Creed sizing die. The 6 Creed seating stem fits the heavy 22 cal bullets perfectly. I caution using a 22 seating stem in a 6 Creed die because when I tried it the 22 stem had some play side to side and could have some runout issues.

    22 creedmoor

    Off the top of my head not sure but I can check this weekend when I get home. H4831SC is working great. With 95 SMKs running 42.0 grains and getting 3150fps. With 88 ELDMs and 43.5 grains I’m getting 3370fps average.

    22 creedmoor

    I am using Alpha 22 brass now but started out with Hornady 6 Creed brass. When sizing down using one of my 6.5 Creedmoor bushing dies felt some brass didn’t chamber as good as it should. Could it be from 6.5 die not sizing as much of the brass as a dedicated 22 die? Maybe, maybe not but sizing...

    22 creedmoor

    I found it didn’t size uniformly at the neck shoulder junction.

    22 creedmoor

    6 Creedmoor seating die works perfect for the heavier longer .224 bullets and for sizing Whidden has a 22 Creedmoor die available. I tried one of my 6.5 dies with smaller bushings and it didn’t size brass as good as my 22 Creedmoor die.

    7 twist perfect for the 95s.

    What bullets you going with? I find the 95 SMKs like a 15 thou jump.

    Duluth Flex Fire Hose Cargo pants with neoprene knee pads is what I wear at matches. Tough and comfortable.

    Arca rail vs. Ingenuity rail?

    I do prefer the IGW rail over ARCA rails except for when it comes to clamping into a tripod. The IGW ARCA adaptor does work very well and I use one on my hunting rifle but given the option a full ARCA rail is nice and IGW will have ARCA rails coming out for the IGW rail shortly after Shot Show.

    Arca rail vs. Ingenuity rail?

    The IGW rail has any dovetail or ARCA rail system beat when it comes to speed and lock up. Also due to the design of the blocks on the IGW rail they handle off angle shots much better than ARCA blocks. Until the Area 419 ARCA lock rail you could have blocks or bipod adaptors move under recoil...

    New to PRS is the Ruger RPR a good first gun?

    RPR is good rifle. My wife has used one for PRS past two years. She shot out the factory 6.5 barrel in about 2000 rounds and I upgraded it to a 6.5 barrel from LRI. And it has shot great over the past year. Close to 3000 rounds on it. My suggestion if you get an RPR is swap out the hand guard...

    22 Creedmoor Build Advice

    If you’re on Facebook look up the 22 Creedmoor group. Tons of info there. I run a 22 Creed with 95 SMKs. You can push the 95 SMK to 3200 but for competition you’re better off to run it around 3100. I tried mine with RL26 and it would shoot awesome at 3170 but would form a carbon ring under match...

    BARLOC QUICK-CHANGE BARREL DEVICE, BARREL NUT VERSION

    If you seen my first post I’m using a shouldered version of the barloc. I think the barrel nut version probably be just fine but if you get some issues with zero shift it could be the barloc assembly. To answer you questions I do not have a barrel nut so I can’t do anything about that. With...

    BARLOC QUICK-CHANGE BARREL DEVICE, BARREL NUT VERSION

    I would get a 1.5 mil shift up or down. I had it happen in a match going between stages, while shooting stages and travel to or from a match.

    BARLOC QUICK-CHANGE BARREL DEVICE, BARREL NUT VERSION

    I tried a shouldered barloc setup on my Nucleus and have had issues with a zero shift. My gunsmith is reworking the barrel to get rid of the barloc so we can see if it’s the culprit. Tried different scopes and going over anything else that could cause the issue and we are down to the barloc...

    ARC Shouldered BarLoc review

    Talking with guys at ARC today you should have a gap of 0.060 when the screw is torqued or roughly 1/16”. I have been fighting an issue with a POI shift I believe is due to the barloc. My gunsmith plans to rework barrel so it will shoulder up like a normal barreled action and see if that fixes...

    Foundation Stock?

    You don’t need to bed them. I don’t have one but I shoot with several top PRS shooters in Oklahoma who do use the Foundation stock and none of them have bedded their actions. If you like the look and feel then go for it you won’t be disappointed.
