    Strong action for high pressure 7mm Backcountry

    I definitely wouldn’t use the Winchester action, I’d probably go with something 3 lug to help distribute the higher pressure if you want to build some or get a factory rifle chambered in it like the seekins havak

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    The barrel has been scrubbed out, and it will be getting sent in for inspection by the manufacturer once I get the info I need from them.

    Bighorn Origin Build Thread

    Time to intercept something, but I don’t know what it is or where it’s going

    Rimfire Shooting, Same Signal, Different Noise

    Is there scaling for the 22 stuff, I thought I remembered hearing that there was something with gravity ballistics a while ago but I could be wrong.

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    That he is, but cleaning out the copper was on the todo list

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    It would appear I’m not the smartest person and didn’t get photos before I cleaned it all out. I did take some photos tonight of what looks like skipping near the chamber but again I could be and probably am wrong.

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    Yup, it’s shooting copper out the muzzle break and I completely missed that till you just pointed it out

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    That would be mildly depressing after the lead time and amount of money spent, but they probably would make it right.

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    I can upload some pictures once I get home, since they are still on the card for my scope or at least I hope I took pictures before cleaning the barrel last night.

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    I’ve had the same action in the PRS1 for years without any issue, plus I hope a TL3 isn’t banana shaped after a few years of use

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    Shouldn’t be since it’s sitting in a manners TCS with mini chassis but anything is possible at this stage. I might throw it in my spare PRS1 just to eliminate that variable. Haha Ozark meth head is a good analogy

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    I cleaned it about 100 rounds ago, scrubbed it out with bore tech copper remover and then some bore tech eliminator.

    Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

    So after chasing my tail with load development trying to get my current 223 rifle project all set, I ran a scope down the bore and noticed what looks like random copper fouling 1/2-3/4 through the barrel in a couple spots. It also looks like a possible rough patch in the bore but I can’t...

    Long gong

    We had one at 120ish and then one at the rack, which definitely help but we are a bunch of silly gooses that can’t take our time, so we shot it like a 90 second PRS stage lol

    Long gong

    So my first attempt at long gong ended up with me getting second place with a score of 76, which should have been a win but the guy scoring thinks he messed up one of my strings. I would have fought it but the guy who got first place shot a 77 and left early, so even I just bumped up a just a...

    Long gong

    So I found out the club local-ish to me is only pushing out the 225 yards since 300 was a bit to much of a challenge for most people it seems. Looks like they are using 6”, 4.5” and 3” for their gong, so that should be fun.

    Quick Question on the Zermatt Origin + Trigger Tech combo

    I had one of the first runs of the origin and had ray send me the updated cocking piece, it was a nice little upgrade, but to the OP you don’t need the bolt release since its build into the action it’s self on the side.

    Composite Stock Options

    Hard to go wrong with a manners stock, they aren’t inexpensive and the wait time is annoying for a custom one but at this point they are my go to for anything I’m building.

    Curtis took my money......7 months later still nothing.

    Seems to be a recurring issue, someone else posted they paid in full for a x lite rifle and now are beyond the expected delivery date. Now after contacting them a bunch, they have been ghosted and can’t get any response back from Curtis
