Very nicely done AZ. Love the suppressed 223Wylde.
Here's my latest:

Savage PTA, right bolt left port. 6BRX McGowen, 28", full bull barrel. Hart Long Range Target stock. Nightforce ultralight rings, NF steel 20 MOA base. NF Competition 15-55x52 scope, original model without the upgrades

Nice, but you got me curious. How, and why the right bolt/left port? Very different.

[barrel-nut]

Thanks. RBLP allows you to work the bolt and trigger with your right hand, and load and catch empties with your left. Also allows you to see into the action without getting up or disturbing the rifle. And just because it's different. I haven't got to shoot it much yet so I still can't say if I would buy another in that configuration, but so far it's good.

[daddyusmaximus]

How do you get an action with the port on the left and bolt on the right? Is this custom, or a factory option. I am very much turned on by this.

[barrel-nut]

You call someone, like Jim at Northland Shooters, and say, "hey Jim, got any RBLP target actions on hand?". It's completely factory stock (the action). They're offered in right bolt left port, right bolt right port, and right bolt dual port. Jim's a great guy to deal with btw.

[daddyusmaximus]

Dual port? Cool. You could feed from the left and have it eject on the right.

And the new girl. I just finished it up, and still have a few things on the list. I want a new barrel (pending how this shoots) and then also needs bedded. Also might try and see what it takes for a 10rd box mag.

It takes me forever to put one of these together spending a little at a time, but this one's to the point where it's pic worthy. Might still opt for a DBM (cha-ching...) and it definitely needs a decent optic (BIG cha-ching...).

Latest version of my Precision Shooting Stick... Everyone kept telling me that the factory tube wouldn't stabilize the Hornady 105 BTHP Match. I am here to tell you, that just ain't so...

She helped a Prairie Dog take a dirt nap at 607 yards on Saturday. I am very pleased with the results of my combination. Running the 2nd node to the average of 2870fps. Me likey!!

[LoneWolf]

Really like that Element Chassis!

[BoilerUP]

How long is that 11VT barrel, again? Seem to recall you had it cut down...?

[RatMag]

Thanks Wolf!!

Boiler: The barrel was cut back to 22-1/2" originally for use with the Badger Mini FTE, and then the Ross Schuler brake (as shown), right after I bought it. However, I will be cutting it back further to 18-1/2" for my YHM Suppressor... IF IT WILL EVER GET HERE!! Both Hornady and Hodgdon suggest that I at least try the 105's with the shorter tube, prior to dropping back to the 87 V-Max's that I will be running afterward. Which would help, as I have just over 600 of them loaded at the moment.

Hopefully they will perform as I hope they do...

[BoilerUP]

2870 in a lower node from a 22.5" barrel seems pretty reasonable to me, especially if accuracy was there.

What was the velocity of the higher node?

Also - how's the Element compared to the MCS-T to get behind?

Thanks for humoring my 20 questions....
