    One piece vs two piece bolts

    There are so many of these points of view out there.... Once upon a time all bench rest rifles had to be single shot for the bedding area and increased rigidity. Then they came out with drop port and left load right eject actions. Don't sweat this stuff, however I do like one piece bolt handles...

    Siete vs Delta 5 Pro vs AT-X

    Funny how subjective things can be, I have 2 TL3's and 2 Origins. Also an AX, in a Vision Chassis, all have their strong and weak points. Up to the individual to decide, though I honestly can say, none were a mistake to buy (for me!).......

    Someone talk me out of buying an Origin

    I think many people would feel better if the Origin was a few hundred dollars more..... Automaticly loses the "budget" stigma, and then certain people can sleep easy at night knowing their action is expensive 👍 What's crazy, is that it would likely become more attractice for certain elements of...

    Mate if you had a hard to cock or close TL3, it was likely the ammunition being used. Pete

    Custom actions

    Mate, kind of confused regarding what will please you going through your list? Buy one, it doesn't have to be a life changing purchase, sell it if it isn't you. Otherwise I feel as if you will still be evaluating things for years. Best of luck to you, I think you have sampled more actions than...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    I think I will do some measurements and see if there is a similar spring out there..... Have to be a decent chance of a common one existing with less poundage 🤞

    Accuracy International AT-X

    I am going to assume that the firing spring on the AT/AX series of rifles can be changed without issue. So has anyone found a similar spring which has decreased poundage rate? I don't believe AI need to smooth out regarding lugs/ramps etc, just as a military rifle the firing spring must be at...

    NIOA Acquires Barrett Firearms Announcement

    I would honestly be surprised if an Australian company really cares what the USA wishes to purchase, they want to make money..... In saying that, what pressure your politicians will make under the table is another matter. Being outside of the US, you could only imagine if they wanted things...

    Surprising neck tension test ... (at least it surprised me)

    If I am EVER that bored, I need to assess what the fuck I am doing in life!!!🤣 All good man, it is an assumption so no further arguments from me, all the best. Pete

    Surprising neck tension test ... (at least it surprised me)

    No offence mate, but seems unlikely..... Ever set a primer off in a case, in your barrel (minus projectile) and held a rag over the end of the barrel with your hand? It is SIGNIFICANT pressure.....

    Defiance bought out

    Talking about Apples to Apples..... I wouldn't have thought you had the same choice in powders as actions? If you can get a powder that does in all definable aspects the same thing, cheaper will be my choice. And ultimately this is all about choice too👍 PS I'm a Zermatt and AI guy, so it is...
