I have aquired a Model 12 LRPV in .223.
It has all the features that I would expect except the X-Tra Heavy Barrel is not fluted.
I really like the left port.
Man, is it heavy.
Is the non fluted barrel at all unusual?

Non fluted is the norm on that one.
Mine is fluted. It's a 7 twist. What's yours?
They shoot great 1/4 MOA is the norm. Mine loves 80gr. Noslers.

I agree! Mine loves the 77SMK's. I am about to test the 80A-max for F-Class use.
Pretty sure the fluting on them is just in the past year or so. Any that are older than that did not have flutes.

An average outing. If 1/4" is the norm, I better get to work ;)Quote:
