That is the Area 419 Hellfire
What brake is that? That's a sweet looking rig.
Which 223 mags did you use? The AI brand, accurate mag, MDT? I got a 223 bolt and barrel but haven’t swapped out yet and was curious which mag fed the 223 rounds smooth.
That’s looks sweet man! I like that color combo!Received the last piece today. Now just the countdown until range time Saturday to see how it does. As others have said the action is super smooth already, cant wait to feel it after a couple hundred rounds.

The fitment will basically just be determined by how well the A5 is inletted.
It can fit like a glove if done right, or butchered by a guy with a dremel.
Wade has one on the front page of his website:

Looks like a nice fit to me
I really like this action and the reviews but is it silly to be hung up on the trigger hanger issue and how the action wont drop in some stocks without needing extra fitment work? I feel like I want a simple action that will drop into any chassis without additional work.

Did not know about the manners. That’s awesome. ThanksMPA and Foundation are drop in. The latest Manners mini chassis (since February) are drop in. J Allen has a cage that is drop in as well.

I have a budget of around $2k. I just got Tikka T3 30-06 that I will throw GAP LRHSi on and was wondering if you guys had suggestions for optics for Impact 18” 6.5 creed. I could go up to $2.5k. Thanks
Why not get the same scope? I run a Bushnell DMR (GAP reticle) on my 23” 6.5creed and recommend staying with the same reticle across Rifles. Simplifies things. Those can be had for $1,000-1,300 on here in classified
I felt this way about the gap tempest but with the impact I do what I need it’s that good of an action. I own two foundation stocks but love my krg whiskey 3 and modified the chassis to work. It’s so worth it....I really like this action and the reviews but is it silly to be hung up on the trigger hanger issue and how the action wont drop in some stocks without needing extra fitment work?

I had dmr ii GAP Gen 3 I sold and currently have hdmr ii w/ h59. Great scopes but I feel like I want to step it up to the next level with the Impact action. Was looking at MK5 HD H59. Thoughts?

Man for that budget you could really step up to used scopes like a Schmidt, atacr, or kahles k624i. I’ve seen in just a few pages , all of these on the for sale section for $2300 or under. I like all three and feel like at that level it just depends on features that fit you best and what you like.I have a budget of around $2k.

I like how MPA is a drop in fit. However like others said, no dice with KRG. But apparently its easy to modify the inlet. I just dont want to. Ive got a Magpul Pro chassis im going to test though. Will post results.
I forgot to mention the Magpul Pro. This should drop in as well. They bought an action to ensure fit and had it at SHOT as a rifle.
Anyone have a video of the action being run up close?
Man I do not know personally how much it takes but from what I’ve heard it just takes some relief where the trigger hanger goes in. Any competent gunsmith would be able to do it fairly quickly and get it up and running. Sorry to not have a definitive answer but I have never put an Impact or seen a KRG apart to know how much.Just how much work would go into modifying a KRG Bravo or XRay to work with the impact? Has anyone done it yet?
I really love my Impact! Shout out to Tate for getting me set up with a proper PRS rig. Mine came complete from the factory in 6mm Creedmoor, Foundation stock, 26” barrel, and ARCA Swiss FL rail. I topped it with a Spuhr SP-4001 mount and Nightforce ATACR 7-35X56 F1 Riflescope with Mil-C reticule. I got interested in this rifle after shooting a friends Impact at the local club.Just wanted to start a thread and start some discussion on Impact actions.

I see the barrels are around 800$. Is there another place that sells barrels to fit the impact action?
I've run about 5000 rounds of 6BR and 6Dasher through these actions and I've not had one feeding or ejection issue with them. The actions are amazingly smooth.
I did have an issue with a firing pin assembly when I dropped it on the floor when I pulled it apart to clean it. I bent the firing pin, but Wade had me one in the mail the next day.
These guys are simply the best in the business.
Nope! I do use a Primal Rights mag spacer kit but some guys don't even do that. This action feeds and extracts the popular BR-based cartridges perfectly.Did you have to do anything modifications to the mags? I've got one coming and going to be running a 6br in it so curious!
Colt, I run a br and I bought a spacer kit and hated loading it. So I took it out and don’t use it now. It feeds perfectly fine without it.Did you have to do anything modifications to the mags? I've got one coming and going to be running a 6br in it so curious!
Thanks for sharing!I got my Impact back in August but I wanted to run it for a while before giving my feedback.
Put in in a MPA and bolted on a Diamond, no fitment problems at all. I threaded on a Stuteville prefit and it is easily as accurate as any other gun I have had.
I have ran it at multiple club matches and 2 national level matches with zero hiccups. I did however round the profile of the ejector plunger to cure a minor feeding problem when using the Magpul Pmags.
I switched to the Impact from an AIAX and I can say that I like the Impact better. The bolt lift and close is easier and it will run basically dry without lube, which in my opinion is huge for shooting dusty matches. When shooting in dusty conditions the Impact feels the same at the beginning of the day and the end.....really smooth.
To make it the perfect action I would like to see a AW mag cut, and a quick change barrel system like an AX, and maybe interchangeable bolt heads.
Interested in this as well. I’m still between the 60 vs 90 bolt throw and the integral recoil lug vs pinned. So many solid choices these daysHas anyone ran a curtis axiom compared to impact and can give a comparison between the two. I definitely want my next action to be smooth.
Curtis is very light for a 3-lug. But lots say cocking an impact is like opening a remington 700 that has already been cocked. That is ultra light. I personally love 60 degree 3-lugs but am not wild about them without a swept handle. I really like my tempest. Either works though i'm eager to get my hands on an impact.
Man you make me want an impact so bad lol, i think it'd almost be counter productive to put hands on one because i'd want to get rid of my Bighorn. I feel the same way about my tempest when it comes to binding, it has never exhibited it on me. That and i honestly just love running the damn thing. Feeds ultra smooth with minimal effort to run due to AW mags and a 60 degree throw. I love it.

Thanks for the video. If you ever get an impact, I hope you do a video just like this and throw your opinion on it too. I've never seen a video on the impact action being run.
