What chassis are you using

[swadiver]

XLR Industries Element. I have three of them. l will let the pics do the talking. One is a Criterion barreled .308, the other a Krieger barreled 6BR. all 5 @ 100 yds. :p the .308 was just used as part of the 4 man team that just took the F/TR mid range (300, 500, & 600 yds shot) team National record.

Depends on your shooting style. I carry a swiveling table in my receiver hitch and when I want to shoot I drop it and bang away. Since I ALWAYS shoot from a bench, even on game, I run regular bench stocks.

If I was a skinny, prone kinda guy I would go with a chassis.

I can't shoot a prone bipod group as well as a bench group and MOST people can't or they would shoot short range best rest on their bellies.

My style is uncommon but where I hunt and shoot I get to a high point in the truck and drop the bench and that's it. If I walked about and hunted away from my vehicle often I would go chassis. A case in point is a deer I wanted to kill was easily visible every day about 1300 yds away on my neighbors wheat field, unfortunately the only time he crossed our land was out of sight of anywhere I could get to without walking about 1.5 miles up and down canyons. Me and my cousin carried my 40lb Edge, front rest, rear bag and other gear over there and shot him at 780 yds. Then we carried all the gear AND the quartered deer back. That was one day I wished a shot a 12lb chassis lol.

I did put together a TAC 21 MDT chassis 300 win mag. I had it for about a year. I had no accuracy issues with it and it only had a ER Shaw barrel. I also have a MDT LSS chassis on my 7mm08.

I read a little about the MDT TAC21 chassis before I bought the XLR. The one thing that I was apprehensive about was that the scope mounts to the chassis body and not on the receiver. The rifle receiver is enclosed within the chassis. I am really not sure if that poses a problem or not in practice. I just wasn't comfortable with that design. I really don't have an answer for the buttstock/mag question. I know some chassis systems use Accuracy International magazines.....like XLR and McRees. I just searched magazines for the MDT TAC21. Apparently, from what I read, it is not compatible with AI magazines. I am sure many of the chassis systems will have proprietary parts. There will be some exceptions for sure, but don't count of being able to use whatever part you wanted, such as another manufacturer's buttstock.

Hello, the TAC21 is compatible with any AICS pattern magazine.

As far as the scope rail being part of the chassis and not attached to the top of the receiver, the chassis body is a one piece tube that is more than rigid enough for the job, and there are at least three members of the Canadian F-Class Team who will be shooting the World championships with TAC21's.

I love the XLR Element as you can tell, but they ain't the most elegant looking rifles on the line that's for sure

XLR Element
More than happy with it

Prone
Bench
Field use for prairie puppies.

Well either I will go with McMillan a3-5 or xlr evolution. I will change out the stock on xlr. I don't like theirs.
At this point just need to make sure if I go with xlr that it will be comfortable n consistent for me to shoot prone.

XLR Evolution is nice, but you have to mount the scope considerably higher to clear the barrel shroud.... I like having my scope as low to the bore as possible.

Have a XLR Evolution on my 110 flat back 260 rem and will have a XLR element for my rem 700 6.5 x 47 Lapua. Do not like that you need an allen wrench to adjust the Evolution stock.

So for the element I will use a MDT fixed stock adapter and Luth-AR MBA-1 stock.

That was one of my biggest issues with the XLR...it's a PITA to adjust

Ashbury Precision Ordnance chassis, a work in progress. Savage 11 Hoghunter .308 barreled action in an APO chassis, Ken Farrel 20 moa rail, TPS low rings and Vortex HS-T 4-16x44. A machinist nearby, who manufactures guns, suppressors, etc, made the muzzle brake. I'm getting ready to have the chassis body, hand guard, buffer tube and castle nut Cerakoted in FDE. The muzzle brake will be Cerakoted black. Due to many surgeries, I'm recoil sensitive these days. My son, a machinist, made made me a mercury tube system that will go in the buffer tube. I look forward to shooting it once it's complete.
