JP JPRFX 22 rifle

No, but got my attention. My to to semi-auto 22Lr is KIDD, but these look really nice. I will keep an eye out for his follow on videos.

Cheaper than my Vudoo, a little more than my KIDD...the question is what would this do that those do not? :unsure:

Probably nothing, but it could be a lot of fun! Unfortunately this “well regulated “ cesspool makes getting one impossible.
 
I would be really surprised if a Kidd Supergrade could not beat this but based on reputation I would believe the JP could make a good showing in the match.

I’ve had a similar project in mind, but for a turn-key purchase, that looks great 👍
 
Holy crap that is cool. Love the side charging option. I’m curious to see if these will cut at all into the Kidd sales.

Hard to think any semiauto will outshoot a Kidd supergrade.

I like the mags on my AR22 upper better than my 10/22’s for not scraping the bullets. Need to try some Kriss AR22 magazines like JP recommended.
 
John Paul aka JP shot his the last two seasons at our club matches and it was impressive, with that said I haven’t seen it go up against a Kidd

Time to revive this thread. Picked mine up yesterday. JP mentioned doing this a few years back. I called every six months or so to check on it. Every time they said nope , no plans for that. I was going to build it on the website but went with a dealer who had one in stock. PRS lite in back, side charger, 15.5 in forearm with ARCA rail, compensator on the barrel. Some sort of trigger upgrade. Advertised at 3.5 to 4lbs. I haven't checked it yet. I tried a Calvin Elite in it but it didn't want to engage the safety. Trigger is fine, I'm just not used to that heavy. Put a Ziess S3 4-25 on it. It weights in at 12 lbs. Shipped with the M&P mag. LOP with the PRS lite is 13.75. I need some kind of AR style mount to get the scope up and away from by face, and add some MOA. Balance isn't great- got a weighted rail coming.
Range report. Got it out to the range today regardless of the 11gust 23 winds, average 17. MY Garmin Chrono kept generating a shot with an MV between 200-400FPS- I guess due to the wind.
Started of with SK plus - SD 25 mv 988 ( shoots 1080 out of my bolt guns). SK Rifle match SD 28.6 MV 981, Eley target- SD 13.1 MV 1048
( shoots SD 6 MV 1080 out of my Duece).
Moved to the recommended Eley benchrest Outlaw and benchrest. Outlaw SD 17, MV 1067 over 40 rounds. Tried 6 lots of Benchrest- best was SD 6.5 MV 1070 over 40 rounds. (the other lots shot SD's of 9.9, 7.6,10.4,12.3,9.6. and the groups were not as good)
Shot 5 , 5 shot groups into that wind at 50 yds . . Results for the best lot were .326", .360",.377",.638", 1.14". Went home and ordered a bunch of that. So magazine wise- The M&P is horrible to insert but always locks back. The Kriss inserts really quickly and seem to lock back intermittently ( need to check more). I bought some 10 and 15 rounders of those. Big mistake. It's the same form factor one holds 15 one holds ten.
Zero malfunctions through several hundred rounds.
I'll give you that Kidd supergrade comparison after I shoot it against my buddy's in 2 weeks. Wait, he could beat me with a Cricket. I'm always jumping on the next thing. Showed up with one of the first Vudoos years ago, they said you spent what on a .22? Have a RimX and a Duece. I think this is going to be a good addition to the fleet.

JP makes some very nice stuff. Their uppers, lowers, and handguards are machined perfectly and just have a feel of quality...perfection. I love AR22s but I'm not sure I have $2,600 wrapped up in all of them that I have. I have an earlier JP bolt/barrel assembled. I have several uppers/barrels that utilize the Ciener style bolt too. There's much discussion about what makes and AR22 upper accurate. Or any 22 or centerfire for that matter. The secrete sauce that sets this one apart from all others is in the barrel and chamber. I can't think of anything else that can be done to the JPRFX 22 that would make it more accurate. The cartridge delivery to the chamber (bolt and magazine), a good trigger, good barrel, and good ammunition. The platform as a whole is geared toward PRS or NRL shooting. Can you determine anything else on the rifle that contributes to it's accuracy performance?
 
Thanks for the insight. Obviously with .22's the whole game is the barrel ,ammo lot lottery.This 14 twist with that Semi auto ammo is a great combo. It’s interesting because the box says 1070 ish fps on it, and thats what it shoots. I should run it in a bolt gun and check it. All my other ammo says 1080 and shot 980. I think how it presents the round is key- like you said. I did notice several strings where the first round was 30fps faster. Im going to investigate that. Probably related to releasing the bolt.
