Update: using about 20+ pounds of manual pressure using my hand, there was a minute amount of flexion. Not enough to make contact with barrel. I used a belt sander to give me an extra mm of clearance lol. I’ll take a close up slow motion video and update you guys. I’m also going to use some...

If I decide to go with a little bit taller optic rings, I will need a way to raise my cheek weld even though it’s maxed out. Do any of you have any recommendations on a cheap pad or something I can add to my comb to get my eye where it needs to be?

Haha I see where this is going. Sorry, but no I don’t believe that “most” businesses prioritize science over money. However, I’m sure that many “good” businesses will. I don’t have a method for sifting through moral integrity and scientific accuracy of businesses. So I’m looking into things...

These companies are often business 1st, science 2nd. Not saying MFG isn’t often accurate. I just expect a wide birth of “CYA” when it comes down to recommendations.

Thanks guys. I’ll try pushing it down a bit to see if contact occurs. Also will try the play doh idea. I’ll also shave a bit off bottom of lens cap. Maybe with a belt sander. I’m a little resistant to getting higher rings because my cheek weld is perfection right now. And cheek comb height is...

It’s 4 pieces of paper between the cap and barrel.

Wondering if this height will be a problem, such as recoil causing contact between barrel and optic? I like these lens caps and would prefer to keep them. Obviously my clearance would be better without them. I’m running low rings because it gets the optic line-of-sight to perfect cheek weld...

Sear height was already within normal range. Good thought though. Sear engagement adjustment solved the issue.

Thank you all for your input. Adjusting sear engagement wound up solving the issue.

Hi guys, I recently ordered the following trigger: Bix'n Andy Remington 700 TacSport PRO - X, Two-Stage, Top Left Safety, w/ Gator shoe TRBX0121 When I put everything together, I noticed that the rifle unintentionally fires itself when I switch the safety from “on to off” position. This is...

Yeah the gator one seems wider and more tactile. Seems better for shooter feedback. That’s the one I’m after.

That’s the one I wanted originally, but they don’t make the 2-stage in a left-handed configuration. It’s right hand only.

Thanks for the help guys

This is the one I’m thinking I’ll prob go with. I ordered a defiance action (lefty). It’s a R700 clone. Grayboe Phoenix 2 (lefty) stock. I should be compatible with the above: tac sport pro with a top left safety, yeah?

Any recommendations on good R700 triggers with the following features: - left handed - no bolt catch release - approx 8oz - 2 pound pull weight - 2 stage trigger I’m new to this bolt action triggers and looking for options. Thank you guys.

Stevie those are great groups and an amazing looking rifle. Thanks for the info. The Phoenix II is lefty so that’s the one I’m prob gonna go with.

Thank you guys for your suggestions. Working with Russ at bugholes and they’re very helpful. They ordered some parts for me. Going with AntiX (lefty) and Bartlein #3, 9/16x24 TPi. A couple questions: Considering Phoenix 2 chassis/stock by Grayboe. Anyone have experience with this company or...

Frustrated. I’ve built many ar platform type rifles. However, started some research for parts for a precision 6.5 creed bolt action repeater. Can’t find any actions in stock! This will be a lefty rifle. I want it to be lighter weight for hunting but not anorexic. I’ve looked at surgeon...

The rod fits. I would describe it as mild contiguous contact as I push it through. Just don’t wanna damage/stress the bore.

Hey guys. Was sold a .27 caliber cleaning rod for 6.5cm barrel. Seems to fit ok but wanted to know you’re thoughts on this. Too big? Thanks.
