    Any of you guys had experience swapping bolt bodies? I would like to swap the stainless jeweled bolt for the black bolt found in the 10 BA and others just for the look (I love black). Is there any fitting or any custom work to be done when swapping bodies or are they all the same?

    Forgot I had 2 accounts for whatever reason this is still the OP.

    Gave the bore a good scrub with copper remover like you guys suggested. Hopefully between this, better rings and the chassis I've eliminated all but operator error. Just need to re-zero and get a QD sling adapter and finally get out to take care of the coyote problem.

    I have a 12fv in xlr element chassis. I have been getting good results with it. https://www.flickr.com/photos/162264.../shares/MNtd10. I hope my pics work. 5 shots each.

    I really like it. Their buttstocks are nice too. Mine is black. It was a little slick so i sprayed some textured paint on it. Ive had this setup out to 630 yards. Need to find a place to stretch out some more.

    Good to hear, I have already made my mind up about using the xlr tactical lite

    but saw this knock off in another thread in savage shoots. guy said he got one, and was hoping he would give it a review.

    Yes original barrel. I’m not sure the length of the handguard but it’s on the shorter side compared with the other chassis on the market. It’s the same chassis from the 10BA stealth if you want to look up specs.
