Re: New Rifle to the Range

wow...that is just simply amazing

 

[Ouch!!]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I loved the ashbury chassis when I got to see/touch it. Yours looks pretty heavy since with the addition of that beafy barrel. The ashbury that I held was heavy. I always wonder if I go back to the same machine gun shoot if he will still be trying to sell it.

Nice rifle. There certainly is a perk to be a gunsmith. Nice looking rifle. Just out of curiosity, how much for the Asburry stock?

Showing those pictures to many of us here is like giving a starving dog a rubber bone (LOL).

What's the material on the foregrip? It changes appearance depending on the angle...very cool and reptilian!

There was a thread a while back about the Ashbury. I seem to remember people were talking about the chassis alone being in the $2k range. That may have just been rumor, but I'm sure people will be paying a premium when they first come out. It's a badass stock.

 

[savage110]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

MSRP roughly 1500$ for the basic and for the model with all the full lenght rails and all the other goodies, the MSRP is around 2500$.

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Ashbury at last!

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I would love to get my hands on one of those stocks!! Awesome looking rifle!

Re: New Rifle to the Range

George, when do you think you can do builds on those chassis systems?
Are you going to sell that rifle?

You have my phone number.....

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Why did you go with a gain twist?

</div></div>

Not for Sale as its just a Concept at this point. Ashbury is working on Pricing and delivery timelines. Ill share that when its available.


Why Gain Twist??? Why Not!!!!! LOL

Im still playing with that as well. There is definatly a gain in velocity associated with it and less sensitivity to length of ammo. Hence less load development.

So for no Negative to it at all. Using one on My F Open Gun and set 3 new National Records with it (Retired LE Catagory) Seems to have some merit so for.

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Gain twist is the new mil/mil

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I'd love to see this eventually added to the GAP lineup.

Re: New Rifle to the Range

man is that rifle sexy or what? What is the weight of the combination?

 

[Chiller]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

will be interesting to see when these happen.

 

[A10XRIFLE]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Weight with the Scope and the Bipod is 17.5 pounds

 

[desertHK]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

George
Does any action fit into this Ashbury stock? Or it has to be inletted and all that stuff?

 

[Steelhead]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I like that! I look forward to hearing more from your testing.

 

[A10XRIFLE]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

They are making them for Remingtons and Clones, this one for the Templar is different becouse our action is 1/4 " Longer.

 

[Iggy]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

That is one nice stick, and the groups are REALLY impressive!

How does the shroud around the barrel hold up? Is there any flex in the chassis?

 

[Captain Moroni]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

George, do you have gain twist 6.5 BBL's in stock?

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I'm really digging that muzzle break! Does anyone know who makes it? I'm shopping for one when I rebarrel my 300 win mag.

Its our New Brake. GAP BRAKE Works really well. Blends into barrels down to .830 at Muzzle.

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Very interesting test rifle, George!

Please keep us updated on the pro's and con's of the gain twist.

I recognize the range, been there a few times myself!

Re: New Rifle to the Range

Wow! super clean!

Ashbury is more AS-bury to me because a $2500 stock would do just that! bury my AS- in debt

 

[mdesign]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

I like it George...at 17lbs, it's not the lightest but very accurate. Be interested to feel the grip on the stock to see how it fits my hand, I'll have to check it out sometime when I'm by the store. Does most of the weight come from the barrel contour or is that style of stock heavier than most?

 

[A10XRIFLE]

Re: New Rifle to the Range

All Chassis stocks are heavy lots of Aluminum, the folding hardware is Titanium and steel. They just weigh more than traditional stocks.
