    Training rig for prs

    Due to your budget constraints, I agree with those above that the .223 switch barrel is a better option. Trying to match your match rifle with a dedicated trainer gets expensive quickly. I have gone the .22LR route and while it was fun and it did help, .223 at distance is much more satisfying IMO.

    How many rounds do you average in a session?

    Current Average Practice Session: .308 = 100-200 6.5 CM = 100-150 .223 = 200-300 9mm = 200-300 Precision Rifle: 10-20 rnds each checking dope/conditions out to 1000 yds. The remaining split between positional practice, dot drills, and KYL, depending on what I feel I need to work on. Guns are...

    Savage Action question... I might be retarded

    Form follows function. Looks pretty elegant to me.

    Savage Action question... I might be retarded

    I think the Savage Illuminati figured out that only about 25% of these would see any real range time... The rest are doomed to be perpetually finger fucked by some keyboard warriors.

    Savage Action question... I might be retarded

    Going to go out on a limb here and assume you are talking about a Savage Stealth Evolution. I think the problems you are experiencing stem from the adaptations that were made to the MDT LSS Chassis. The addition of the full rail appears/feels higher and forces you to use higher rings, as I am...

    GAP Tempest Inlet Compatibility

    Looking at an XLR Carbon in a GAP Tempest Inlet... Can anyone confirm if this would fit an ARC Nucleus SA or Seekins Havak SA? How about a plain old Rem 700 SA?

    Range Report Loss of velocity with colder weather

    Should not see that much variation over such a small temp change. I see around 30fps drop between 70* and 0*. (42.3 H3450 140RDF Starline CCI450 @ 2770 *for reference only) Something else is going on... Moisture or lube causing degradation, maybe? Scale running cold for these?

    My Nucleus action needs a bang-switch

    RemAge/switch barrel: Is this a game for chassis only?

    ^^^ My experience has been similar. I have a couple that needed just a little sanding for the MTU and M24 contour. Most were drop in. That being said, most of my RemAges only see one barrel until they are shot out, and then start over. A couple were used just to try new calibers/flavors, but...

    Nucleus Orders

    Not sure if it's a perfect fit but my standard Rem 700 Possum Hollow guide works fine.

    Nucleus Orders

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it would appear you are having a similar issue. To test this hypothesis, move the bolt forward until the stripped round/case base clears the shoulder of the round in the magazine, now move bolt rearward. Does it continue to control the round or does it...

    6.5 Creedmoor - Running Hornady 140 ELD Match currently. About as standard as you can get.

    Nucleus Orders

    Ran the Nucleus in a match on Saturday. Tried every mag I could get my hands on, still no control round feed. Modified a Magpul as others have mentioned, ARC mags with and without aftermarket followers, MDT, Accurate, AI, etc. but rounds do not ride high enough to seat in claw. Fast/slow, it's...

    Nucleus Orders

    Is anyone getting their actions to consistently control round feed? Mine is consistently push. Using Magpul or Accurates in XLR Element. Bolt speed does not seem to change outcome.

    Before switching to 22 Creedmoor & 22 Benchrest, you may want to read about RPM limits w/ heavy bullets, jacket failure, and bullet blow-ups.

    Also, I believe it is fairly reasonable to assume that once anything is spun that fast, there is going to be vibration. Does some form of resonance play a factor? With some of the Bergers blowing up @ 500+, there must be an additional variable. Maybe air friction like was seen with the AMAX...
