I have a fatboy traverse with their invert 60 ball head and a fatboy elevate with the rrs anvil 30 head. Both are acra/pic attachment heads. These tripods are rock solid!!
It’s hard to argue with the kelbly actions for sure and I believe the nanook is one of the more perfect actions for a hunting build. I don’t own a falkor but have a buddy with a few and loves them. My smith really likes them as well and is building off one personally, and I got my hands on them...
Well eager to hear your 12 results with the LW. My buddies 16 twist LW is a hummer of a barrel, the LW I played with was good but not great. Both 16’s.
My 1 12 Ibi is a fantastic barrel at 50 and further but my other isn’t great at 50 but consistent at 200.
Have a 14 twist ks coming to try
M24 is fairly similar. Heavy varmint is very very similar to mtu.
My general 3 choices are straight 1.250, heavy varmint and mtu. The heavy varmint is basically an mtu with a little extra meat at the breech. Generally 5” instead of 3” before a taper. Both finish at .930 at 26
I personally love the new elite so would be happy with that choice. I prefer my triggers a little lower so I go diamond, I’d run mtu or straight 1.250 26” in 6br or bra, scope would be a rival, spearhead brake or tuner brake, and 100% a ckyepod.
All your choices are great, there just personal...
Well my 22bra is finished. I will be starting barrel break In tomorrow with 75gr eld-m’s and either n140, n150, cfe 223 or varget but not too sure where to start. looking for a light load to form with using alpha 6bra ocd
I’ve owned both a vector and own a Zeus. Never had hands on a solus so can’t not comment. I would first take a terminus over a Curtis. Joel’s service is excellent, his product is better in my mind.
You can buy right off there site, I had no issues. Bought two and built two identical guns for myself and my shooting partner.
I have not used an ibi prefit for the vudoo. I was waiting for them and just bought a blank and had a smith chamber and spun it on. 6 weeks after my build was complete...
Just a couple points here.
- ibi makes prefits for vudoo’s
- vudoo sells just the action. That’s how I bought my second one. First as a barreled action, second as just an action
This happens quite often on my rimx. Twice in the last match, 8 times during a practice session the weekend prior. Like you mentioned, I rarely get a rim lock with a vudoo but if you do, it’s a mag dump and change vs more time loss due to trying to extract a round with the rimx.
Another option...
I own both and like both. I’ve owned a vudoo quite a bit longer and so I’m more familiar with it and it’s my preference. Out of the box the vudoo barreled actions are tough to beat! Just flat out shoot.
If you’re looking at trying a few barrels then the rimx is a no brainer. The rimx mags are...
