2930fps with the new 230smks sorry I lied 6400ft... Actual altitude at that spot 4800ft
All good. Makes even more sense. I'm running 230 LRHTs right at 2900 in the PRC, but the DA is the big difference. I'm at 200ft MSL.
What powder and charge are you using?
Oops, this is a pic thread, so it’s the one in the middle:

78.5 gr of retumbo acclimated to 35ish % rh for 2 weeks+ prior to loading

I saw first signs of pressure at 80.0 (Lapua brass, Fed 215M primer, can't remember the MV). I tried 79.5 and was close to your MV, but ES/SD was worse. I have not tried controlling the humidity other than keeping it tightly sealed and stored inside the house. What kind of ES/SD are you getting, and how are you controlling humidity? I'd guess mine is probably around 45-50% RH inside (in AL).

I don't control it per say after trial and error. I just open it up a couple weeks before I'm ready to load for a match and let it sit out.

I found after 12 days being left open it stops speeding up until I assume it's fully in homeostasis with the Utah 30-35% all year long avg rh. If I was living in a more humid climate I would prolly run something to dehumidify it but it's so dry here I don't see the need with the type of competitive shooting I do.

Would have to look back at some chrono data but I have put 40 rounds of this lot over a Garmin it's like 9sd and less than 30 es

Nice. Thanks
 
😳 I was going to buy a Mk5 when I come out to the US next month...

Mostly because after currency conversion it works out £1800 to buy one in the US vs £2900 here. Which makes it seem like crazy good value.
Hell yeah man. Buy it, you won’t be dissatisfied.
Compared to NF you’ll see a narrower field of view, but be rewarded with a more forgiving exit pupil. It’s going to do everything you need it to.
 
For my size hands I like to index my thumb on the AXSR's folding stock retention plug, but it always felt a little shallow and uncomfortable and sometimes even hard to find under stress. So today I made a little doohickey that clicks into that spot securely and provides a nice little thumb shelf. I'm pretty happy with how it fits and functions.

That looks awesome!

You planning to sell any? If yes, let me know.

One of these days im going to pull a scope off a shelf at Walmart and pop it on. IPHY and duplex!
First of all, my AT has a Leupold MK5 with an Illuminared TMR and I am not afraid to write that in all caps if I have to!

:)

(But seriously find me another reticle that is gloriously .1 MRAD thick and as easy to see sans batteries — I am all ears.)

Second, USO makes their Foundation line with an IPHY reticle option and I always wonder who would choose that reticle.

My current AXMC setup. Yes, it is for PRS. I used a dremel to fit the Reptilia diving board on the Vortex Gen II. Currently I have a 6.5CM barrel and will soon have a 25x47 Lapua barrel as well.

Is that an AXSR hand guard with the integrated arca? If so l, is it as easy as ordering an AXSR hand guard and installing it on an AXMC? Interested in doing this myself.

Hey, it was this forend for the AXMC, not the AXSR forend:

I have this 16" Victor Company AX HR1 forend in brown color I no longer need. PM me if you are interested

I can’t speak specifically for the MC but I did it on the SA and it was plug and play. You’ll find it specifically labeled on mile high or euro for the AX SA/ MC line. So long as you are running a 20moa action rail everything should line up.
Looks likes that’s what he did.

It didn't matter to me, but for everyone's awareness the action rail on my long action AXMC is 30 MOA and the forend rail is 20 MOA. You might not be able to see in the picture, but there is a slight height difference in the top rails lining up

Anyone here running their AI in a pack folded & muzzle up? If so, what pack and how are you running it?

My AXSR with a 1.5” mount won’t fit in the GS2 scabbard folded & muzzle up. So looking for ideas. I snagged the new mission emod system from eberle so I was going to give that a whirl once the scope is back….but figured I’d ask around.

I strap mine muzzle up to the outside

This one is for left-folding stocks (they make one for right folders too).


Don’t own this one, but I own their regular 55” case and it’s pretty nice. I thought it was made in the UK, but confirmed later that it’s Asian-made 😞.
