Man, that really is nice. I wouldn’t have to worry about such things if my stinking S&B scopes would fit on a lefty Xray without the illumination knob making contact!
is that TT the 56mm or the 50mm?
The tripod is the Shadow Tech PIG0311-G, Euro optic has them

The ball head is the Sunwayfoto FB-52
I just got a 4.25" Arca Swiss rail from Area 419.
I've only shot off of it once, but at 300 yards every group I shot from the sitting was well under 1 MOA.
I can get the wobble zone to about 1 inch or slightly less in the sitting, and it seems that putting even the smallest amount of rear support can all but eliminate you vertical, just touching rear with your hand can make a big difference vertically.
No thanks, I like my legs not coming unglued or cracking.
I thought you were rocking an old school manfrotto that had the 15lb weight limits.
Under 1 moa at 300 is great shooting with a tripod!
50mm
This is under an inch at 300 yards. The biggest was five shots under 2 1/2”
Kthomas,
What tripod setup do you use for your Tacops?
I have an RRS tripod with a Uniqball gimbal head.
However, I don't have an ARCA rail on my TacOps, so I would have to put a fortune cookie on top of my tripod head and have the rifle ride it.
@JakeM that's great shooting off of a tripod!
Is Anschutz rail not an ARCA rail?
Anschutz to arca rail adapter.
Found here. No longer available there or on rrs site.

No, you have to connect the two though if you aren't going to use a PIG saddle.
I used the screws and fasteners from the B&T AFAR rail kit to put the Arca Swiss rail on the Anschutz rail.

I think I tried one of these but it didn't fit.
There's different Anschutz standards apparently.
Well he did post it on this thread. I had to call him for something else so i asked him about it. I didnt think i read it right at first
He said he couldnt divulge much until after it was official. It was over the course of 5 to 10 years if i remember our conversation
I wouldn't doubt it in the least these days lol. 5-10 years is still a lot. 10-20k rifles a year. Does Mike make that many now per year?Part of the Ukraine deal then.

….another tale in another thread.
With a 100,000 rifle order possibly coming in, would it be best to order one before February?
I don't think I saw any Echo 51 pics in this thread, so I figured I would add one. I found this rifle in my old man's safe and pulled it out for a range day. Shot a few groups to get the scope back on target and then easily cranked out this last group while it was creaking around on its old Harris bipod. Ammunition was an old box of FGMM I found with it, amazing.
fingers crossed these pics attach right...

That's old, back when the engraving was done by hand.
It's 308 so it can't ever be shot out lol
To answer the inquiring minds yes there was a very large contract on the table with a government that has more money than Elon Musk 100 times over just for the fun money. They specifically wanted 100,000 plus Tac Ops rifles suppressed. One of our guys just returned from a week’s long trip and debriefed myself and my staff on the meetings. I’ve decided to re-entertain this project in August or September of this year…
That is all I can say publicly for the moment
So, for now you Hide members are stuck with me
Feel free place an order whenever your Good to Go…

More money than god government? Must be a hot climate with black gold.
Hope it is not our IRS...To answer the inquiring minds yes there was a very large contract on the table with a government that has more money than Elon Musk 100 times over just for the fun money.

Excellent!
I don’t think people can understand what this is if it actually happens. This is weapons history. Collectors will be scouring the globe in search of these special items. Like a STG44 or MG42, maybe even more expensive depending on the particular weapon and who owned it.
