I have 3 Oryx and love all of them. Biggest caliber I have is .243 so can't comment on larger rounds. But with the straight beam design and thick recoil pad I imagine they would handle large calibers very well.
I run them all with 12FV actions and custom barrels. They mount so solid that I have never bothered with trying to bed them. Instead of buying the different colored panels I just got them all in the base green and painted them with Krylon. I have 2 early ones and the newer unit I received had a noticeably better/smoother surface finish. Glad to see they continue to improve them.
I drilled out the front sling swivel so I could mount a pic rail as far forward as possible. And I put the upgraded grip on 2 of them, but the included one works just fine. MDT has huge x-mas sales on overstock and blem units...too bad you just missed that.
They are a great, simple, reliable chassis. I would do it all over again...
