Sweet rig! Yes Fritz is a great dude. I'm having him do another barrel for me also. Top notch.Well. My new barrel is finished and got the text saying she’s ready for pick up. The brake and scope aren’t mine. My TT is on my vudoo and my can is at home. Fritz got it done 2 days earlier than quoted, and his photography is A-1. I have no reservations it’s going to be a hammer!

Has anyone found a finish that’s close to pale brown? Got a 16.5” 6.5cm barrel ordered from PVA and almost added the graphite black cerakote but figured I’d try to play the color match game first.
Hell..yeah!! That beats $100-150 cerakote jobs lol 90% of the barrel will be covered by the hand guard so I’m not worried about it being super durable.Rust-oleum Nutmeg is a perfect match

Sounds like you have experience @Huskydriver . What primer do you recommend? BTW I half ass regret the rail trade after the 16.5” wants lol. I just got the 13” Victor Rail in the mail and I’m a fan so all is well!If you use a good primer, it's actually very durable

Not to get off topic because this is a pic thread but VV N150, and Varget. I like the speed of Varget but I'm getting primer cratering at 44.1 grains. VV I'm at compressed loads at the same grain weight with no pressure sign but it's about 50 FPS slower.What powder you running?

Takes something much harder and thicker to open up a 750 grainerI would have expected more damage
I think I know where those 205Ms came from.....Yup 308. Peterson SRP brass, and Fed 205m's.
My 175OTM var get load is 44.8 (Lapua brass & not an AI), you may find another node around 43.5gr.Not to get off topic because this is a pic thread but VV N150, and Varget.

Choices ....choicesWell, I sold my ARC match rifle this week so I'll be strictly rocking the AI for the foreseeable future. Makes things easier with 1 gun to choose from. Now, my only decision will be dasher, 25cm, 6cm, or 6.5cm barrel.
You didn't sell that rifle, dude, you gave it away, haha! But, sometimes ya just need car parts, man!Well, I sold my ARC match rifle this week so I'll be strictly rocking the AI for the foreseeable future. Makes things easier with 1 gun to choose from.

adam at mile highAnyone a gunsmith in here or know a gunsmith I can ask some questions about the AXMC/AXSR?
Curious how much space is supposed to be between the bolt/breech ring and the barrel face. Was talking with a gentleman about it and it had me wondering what the correct space is. We were talking about the differences in a standard two lug and the breech ring.
