TD-
I have yet to do the "stand on rifle break-in." I think that will be next week. I will also have to try the:
Use rifle as a hammer test
Use rifle as a pry bar test
Run over rifle with my truck test
Under water accuracy test
BTW thanks for all of the input so far guys, I appreciate it. I did double check to make sure the suppressor was tight. It is still at the dealers as my form 4 has not been approved. Hopefully I will have it in my hands for some more testing. Like I mentioned I did not have much time to mess around with everything.

Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th
Has anyone tried shooting the Lehigh .338 245gr solids yet? They're pretty long, but still fit the magazine and throat just fine. I'm going to try working up a load with RL25 and see if they'll outperform the 250 Scenar.

Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th
Well, there is a bore spec that is designed for shooting the softer LRBT-style copper/nickel solids, but the solid brass ones from Lehigh are a different setup - hybrid borerider. I thought I'd experiment since I've already got the 250 Scenar working well to a mile.

250 Scenar
Lapua Brass
Fed 215M
94gr Reloader 25
COAL 3.694" COAL
Gives me about 2980fps. This is right on the edge of pressure signs for me, so start lower and work up.

Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th
You could say that about some of the best loads. I worked up to it and it shoots fine. The only time I saw pressure signs was when I neck sized the brass for the second go around and discovered the chamber was pretty tight (ie FL size every time).

Did you get everything sorted out? If not give me a call if you want and I can go over all the different torque and untorqued test that have been done here.

This is way over factory recommend.
Using this in my SRS with small signs of pressure, it is similar in ballistics to the 300 grain at 2900 fps (minus energy and wind)
Federal 215M primer,
New Lapua Brass, VV N560,
16.2 g /250 gr Secnar, 3.75 OAL
92.5 grains = 3110 fps

Nice talking with you as well. I learned a lot in our conversation. I just picked up my silencer today. The form 4 finally came back approved! I should get started with some testing in the next couple weeks.
Also, I'll try to get some pics of the SRS with the AAC cyclone.

A couple pics of the SRS with an AAC Cyclone and a new Gunslinger 2 in unicam from a hide sponsor.
I realize I have no camera skills so I'll probably stick to selling machines.....

I've been told that, "this set up with some CorBon subsonic it the most fun you can have with your pants on".... Now I'm sure it's a good time, but I've had some pretty crazy times while wearing pants.... I guess we'll find out this weekend.
I'm still waiting to see some finished pics of your latest build..... but I won't give away any of the details. All's I can say to those reading is that it's going to be sick!
My offer still stands if you want to try before you buy.

Hi Patches.
Do you have any photos of the DTS inside the scabbard of the Gunslinger 2. This is a set up I am considering and wondered how well the rifle fitted.
thanks in advance.

Mine measures right about 1.4" So thats probably a no on trying to put a suppressor inside it. Why you'd want to do that I don't know. With my suppressor on mine is about the length of a 16" AR.

I inquired about the same thing when I ordered mine. I was told that it may be in the plans for the future to have a slightly larger ID for the forend. A 18" 308 barrel with suppressor would only extend the OAL of the weapon by 4" over the standard 22" barrel .

Thats were I was heading. Did yours show up yet? Did you get the .308 kit with it? If I'm not mistaken, you ordered a .338.
I have been toying with the idea of selling a couple of rifles and getting one.

Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th
I ordered the .338 for now. Hopefully it will be here this week. The extra mag and rail covers were on back order, but I told them last week to go ahead and ship the rifle.
I plan on getting a .308 barrel for it as well, but I might wait to see if the larger ID forearm will become available anytime soon before I decide on length.
We'll have to get together so you can check it out. Maybe weekend after next.

superde and trilogymac y'all are gonna be the death of me. I've been wanting a SRS ever since I first heard about them a few years ago. I need to sell a a few other guns first before I can get one though.
Y'all aren't that far away, maybe y'all could come out one day when I get my berm and shooting platform built. Should be able to get to 1600 easy and around 1900 when I trim up a few trees.

I cannot seem to locate the usb cable that connects my old Sony digital camera to my computer.
I like the rifle a lot so far. I'll have to get my, new to me, Prometheus 1 going. The OAL of the rifle is really hard to appreciate till you put it in your hands. The .308 will be like a AR carbine (but not weight wise). I have definitely gone shorter, and a little lighter.
It ended up taking about 2 months on mine, due to an extra .338 magazine and ladder rail covers on backorder. I can do with one magazine and no rail covers for now. I don't think you'll be sorry that you got this setup. Like I said, maybe next weekend we could get together to shoot. I'll have to see if I can get a load worked up.
Now I just need to keep my 7 WSM build on track, and not spend that money on a .308 barrel for this rifle.

Not sure of the official "why" but it makes taking the buttpad off to change the bolts out much easier by being raised and giving me something to "hit" down to unlock the buttpad.

Because I just got delivery of my edge fill stock from McMillan yesterday to almost complete my collection of parts (If I could get ahold of Seekins and get the DBM I'd have them all). My SRS will be going to West Texas with me this year for hunting as well. But I think the 8-9lb scoped WSM will be on my back while hiking LOL.

I don't own a srs yet but it looks like maybe it would make prone shooting a little more comfortable having a little more contact area on your shoulder. Unfortunately I haven't been able to handle or shoot one.

Superde,
What scope did you put on the SRS and what is the empty weight?

My SRS .308 22" barrel with Premier Heritage Scope 5 x 25 x 56mm is about 13 Lbs. A bit of a hand full with the PH but thats for going long past a 1000 yds with .338, still handles well. I use a 3-12 x 50mm when running .308 which is a little lighter.

I will have to put on scales again, but listed weight SRS 22" is 11.4 LB and the PH is 39 oz ( 2.43LB) Total 13.83 of course I would have to add the rings. Its alot light than my AIAW 24" at 17 with scope but I will check
