    Hornady 6mm ARC.

    Once I hear some real world velocities with 20" barrels there is a good chance I'll make an upper in 6mmARC. I think the BR family is the sweet spot for bolt guns though.

    Origin or not?

    Since when does CBI make shouldered prefits for the Origin?

    Origin or not?

    Weird, it was earlier than that. Possibly just the specific code I was using wouldn’t work? I guess people will let us know when they’re back in stock.

    Origin or not?

    Just so everyone knows - I don't think you can use the 10% off Zermatt actions anymore. I think they changed that sometime earlier this year as I remember seeing a disclaimer for Zermatt specific items in the fine print. As for OP - just go ahead and get one. Absolutely love mine.

    @koshkin I know was working with the first two. He might be able to give you a pretty good comparison.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Gen2 EBRD-2D Info

    2D has no open center from what I remember. It also moves the numbers to the outside of the tree rather than right next to the vertical crosshair like the 7C now does. I think that was the only difference and was a Midway special run. Someone here might remember more.

    Best bolt lube for PRS

    I've put a very light layer of CLP on my Origin action and bolt which are nitrided, have not noticed anything weird.

    Best bolt lube for PRS

    I've used CLP but switched to a thin coat of Aeroshell moly grease. Very happy with how the Aeroshell works.

    Rifle Scopes Who offers payment plans on glass?

    I do this as well, just picked up a Razor Gen II using PayPal credit. 0% interest for 6 months. I'm lucky enough that I could have paid out of pocket no problem, but why not take advantage of making smaller payments on something I know I'll have paid off within that time frame? At least for me...

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Thanks for the info. Looks like the S&B is about 15.2" while the Razor is 14.4". Assuming I'm not running the shade I should be fine then.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Anyone have experience running the enclosed forend with a Gen 2 Razor 4.5-27 using ARC medium (1.1") rings? I ask because @Bandit31 mentioned in the below thread it wasn't working for his Minox. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/krg-whiskey-3-enclosed-forend-vs-spigot.6908950/ Other...

    New Barrel for Tikka T3 - .223 AI ?

    I mean more velocity is more velocity, no matter if it's a 16" or 28". You'll see more benefit with a longer tube, but you'll still see a bump with the shorter barrels. Throw in the benefit of little to no trimming again for that Lapua brass and its a no-brainer, even for only a 50-75 fps gain...
