    Very well stated, Chris, and you summed up all the symptoms of the greater problem. I've thought about sharing the dims, but the problem is, reference points to arrive at a measured dim will likely be different for everyone, which is no help at all. I'm working on how to address this. Limiting...

    Absolutely, by adhering to two, simple dimensions (as it pertains to the chassis itself) that drive the vertical positioning of the magazine. Of course there are other things to consider, but assuming those are as they should be, the rest is simple. MB

    Good progress on the Magazine portion of the system-oriented project. Although the material can't handle the spring pressure, the purpose of the exercise depicted in pictures was to qualify the driving equations for magazine capacity, starting with the 10-round version. As luck would have it, my...

    Sir, you summed it up to a "T." Thank you, and no, you're not being impertinent, and you said what ought to be said. The supposed solutions have become distractions that have led to bigger problems. You've also recognized the reasoning behind developing a system based strictly on data and...

    Proper feeding of a 22LR isn't about just one thing, or even two things. The basis of proper feeding is timing due to the need to control the round on its path to the centerline of the bore. Properly accommodating the distance of the magazine from the breech, departure angle of the follower and...

    Parts are still churning at two vendors. I dumped a lot of parts on them at once, so they're digging through the pile. Thanks, Dude. MB

    Chicken dinner for the first to tell me how many followers are in this overlay; the basis of which is my original follower from 2010. There's one that isn't in the overlay because the departure angle isn't the same and it's the one that I get reports on of shaving lead "when adjusted...

    I’ll post overlays of numerous followers atop my original follower from 2010 that show the exact same departure angle. The aftermarket samples are marketed as “enhanced.” All this follower hoopla started when someone at VGW pressed a follower to a belt sander by hand because someone said Eley...

    Yo, Dude, the Hoz & Shield +3 fits inside the Barricade Stop with room to spare. MB

    Yessir, I'm aware. When they, admittedly, copied my mag, there were some features left out that controls the departure angle on the way to the chamber. Also, many are under the impression there's a feed ramp in the front top of the magazine. There isn't, as the bullet would/will touch such a...

    Yessir, lots of cool stuff coming together with more to follow. I expect part of the process during the validation will be to remove a little more weight. The DDG housing halves weigh the same as the current RimX halves (according to the mass properties study), but we'll see what the tangible...

    The new 10-round V-Series magazines are in prototyping, followed by the X-Series (RimX) compatible. Following full validation, the 10, 12, 15 and likely 17 round mags are headed to production, along with the DDG Standard M5 and M5x DBMs. MB

    No, Dude, you're definitely not out of line, and I appreciate everything you're saying, I just wasn't sure if you were the Hoz & Shield guy. My apologies if I came off the wrong way, that certainly wasn't my intent. I'm just trying to wrap my head around the thickness dilemma of the extension...

    Yo, Dude, One of my rough drafts had what I was calling a Mini-ARCA machined into the front face of the DBM, but I was trying to force myself to like it, so it evolved into a vertical dovetail on each side of the DBM. The benefits of the change were to move a little further back and wrap around...

    The DBM and Magazine projects have cooked along in parallel, so here's the latest on the DBMs (Standard M5 and M5x) with the Barricade Stops (Short, Medium, Long) and a gamut of magazines for reference. I'm at a place where I'm considering a Pre-Buy for the DBMs, as a lot of the community has...

    I've always favored Lapua, but I never had any issues with Eley and other match quality ammo in the V-22's I built. Having said that, one will be able to adjust for what they're using. The action projects are rather vast, as has been the Magazine and DBM projects that are feeding the action...
