    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    He is somewhat correct in his assessment. I'd like a repeater that's reliable and as accurate as it can be. It won't be as accurate as a singlshot to allow reliability, but needs to be slugged and maybe even indexed. With good ammo I'd expect it to shoot in the low .2s. Lot testing might come...

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    I didn't find anything mentioning slugging and cutting the barrels at choke point on their site or the 50+ page thread here (or maybe I missed it). On their site they mention fixed barrel length that would indicated that they don't do that. But if they do and add a shilen barrel, I'll buy it.

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    I'm in the market for a very accurate and reliable 22lr repeater and would like to make an informed decision. At this point I'm leaning toward a Vudoo action custom fitted by master rimefire gunsmith with a button rifled barrel.

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    I’m sorry but when someone asks “I really would like a super accurate. 22, the thing is I don't shoot a lot of high power so I don't need it as trainer.” And then the manufacturer replies to him by just posting two cherry picked groups shot at 100Y (0.468” 5 shot groups), I find that it’s...

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    The perfect 22LR reapeter (if you discard aesthetics), is the purpose of my post. It would be a Vudoo action sent to a master gunsmith. You get 100% function/reliability, R700 footprint......AND extreme accuracy .

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    Exactly. Vudoo is the BEST trainer barreled action. We agree 100%. What it's not, is one holer rifle some are portraying.

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    Naaa, From the goups I've seen posted on this site, the $10k Bleiker doesn't shoot as good as the Vudoo at 100Y. Here's the Bleiker.....OMG only 0.5" with the best ammo it likes and with no winds..... http://www.accuratereloading.com/2009/bl100.html

    Only in the PX under WTS section :)

    Vudoo : How about we split the difference?

    I’ve been reading a lot about Vudoo rifles lately on this site and it seems like it’s the best thing since slide bread. Fine, it has a rem 700 footprint and you can configure it like your PRS match gun. It’s reliable and doesn’t have weak ejection like most Anschutz. The magazine is awesome...

    Vudoo or?

    This is also what I was thinking and what I have read in The Art Of Rimfire Accuracy by Bill Calfee. While I understand the popularity of Vudoo as Rem 700 platform (especially on this forum), I’m not sure it would be any more accurate than a factory Anschutz. Also like any factory rimfire rifle...

    Vudoo or?

    What didn't like about your KIDD? I also have a KIDD supergrade and find the double stage trigger (3oz/3oz) very nice.

    Rifle Scopes Which Athlon scope for 22lr

    I placed an order for the Midas TAC 6-24×50 APRS2 FFP MIL. I will never use an IR and prefer having better turrets. I also like the reticule which is similar to my SKMR reticle with a floating dot.

    6.5 CM vs .260 Rem

    I went 260 on my AIAT a few years ago because: 1. I wanted to use Lapua brass. My AIAT has a large fining and Lapua only makes small primer brass for 6.5CM. I never had any blown primer but didn't want to risk it and didn't want to send my bolt for bushing 2. I can use the same trimming and...

    Rifle Scopes Which Athlon scope for 22lr

    The ARES BTR at a cheaper price than the Midas Tac (even though it's MSRP is higher) seems to be a better deal. Am I missing something?

    Rifle Scopes Which Athlon scope for 22lr

    I’d like a scope with good tracking and decent glass. I will never use the IR and the zero stop is a nice to have, but not a must. I like the price on the Argos, but if tracking and glass quality is significantly better on the Midas Tac, it might be a better option.

    Rifle Scopes Which Athlon scope for 22lr

    I'd rather have a higher max magnification than 15X. BTW I do have a few SWFA scopes and I do like them. On my Kidd supergrade I'm currently using a SWFA 5-20. But it barely focuses at 40Y (advertised for 35Y but in reality it's more a 45Y focus) and I'm planning to move that scope to a...

    Rifle Scopes Which Athlon scope for 22lr

    This will go on my Kidd Supergarde. I need a scope that is FFP/MIL/focus at 25Y or below with decent glass and not very expensive (like priced between $300-$800). I’ll shoot the rifle mostly from the bench at 50Y, but would like to be able to use it on occasional NRL22 matches. I’m a little...

    Bought my dream rifle: It’s a factory Remington 700

    I shot it at 100 yards with Fiocchi Extrema V-Max, 40 Grain American Eagle JHP, 50 Grain, and AE Varmint tip 50 Grain. I also shot it with cheap 55gr (not pictured). What a nice rifle! The blind mag holds 6 rounds and It was 100% reliable. It has perfect and smooth feeding and extraction. It...

    Bought my dream rifle: It’s a factory Remington 700

    I’m not planning to reload for this rifle. I’ll just occasionally shoot it at 100Y. I have some Fiocchi Extrema 223 Remington 50 Grain Hornady V-Max and Remington Premier 223 55 Grain AccuTip that I’ll shoot in this rifle. BTW I’m not sure why some of you can’t see my pics. Let me know if I...
