But seriously, stone cold sober. I’m at work. And work is slooow. Mid-fifties.

It is amazing that show got on the air, and there’s no way that could be a cartoon anymore lol oh Bill Cosby you friggin’ scary druggin’ clown, you 🤡

I was going through all the SolidWorks files that I've done over the years and ran across the Lapua Fixture that I designed at the request of my friend, Adam Braverman, for the Lapua test facilities. As one can see by the pictures, the barreled action is bolted into the fixture, and the assembly is then clamped into the bench fixture at the test facilities for lot testing ammo.

As I looked at the work from the past, the thought occurred to me that some or maybe many of you would like to have a Lapua fixture of your own for whatever reason; cleaning, maintenance, taking your own fixture to the Lapua Test Facility; maybe all the above.

If you folks sound off to this post with interest in having your own fixture, I'll produce and make them available. The fixture is designed to accept left- and right-hand bolts and it doesn't matter which side the ejection port is on.

Edit to add: Based on some questions I received, I designed a Bushing Plate to take the place of my DBM for those not feeding from a magazine for lot testing and, to take the place of the DBM in order to bolt the receiver into the Lapua Fixture. I added the pictures below so everyone can visualize how this works. The Bushing Plate also provides lateral support so one doesn't crush the center of the fixture in whatever clamping system that's used.

The drawing would indicate "hints" that it will accept a magazine . Is that correct?
To be more specific, it accepts my DBM, which accepts a magazine, so one can feed from the magazine while lot testing. I'm designing a bushing plate right now to take the place of the DBM for those that wouldn't use a DBM. The bushing plate will also provide lateral support so one doesn't crush the fixture if it's clamped on the middle part instead of the solid forward part.
