Just got to the range with my new JHR, I’m extremely happy with the accuracy which is .25-.30 5 shot groups, however, the action leaves a bit to be desired for myself. I’ll preface this by saying most of my experience with bolt action rifles is my TRG-22 and the M2010 (active Army 10 years so far). I tend to work a bolt with vigor (which I have paid for at Fort Benning and Fort Bragg), but when I run the Nucleus it binds pretty tight if you apply any pressure in the X + axis IE tail of bolt to the right.
I would like to hear from anyone who has been running one of this will smooth out with break in or if it’s just the nature of the design. I should add that my TRG doesn’t do this nor have I experienced it with the M24/M2010.
