This is true. I was distracted by downloading a picture of the 2nd group.
Shot my Bergara Premier Ridgeback for the 1st time today. My hand loads and factory ammo all shot 1/2 MOA ! 23147
Its a heavy rifle ,medium palma contour bbl ,rides the bags very well . Hand loads...
Post a picture .
Yes you were right,rifle had all sorts of issues. Its history now. Now I have a Bergara Premier Ridgeback ,this rifle is a beautiful piece of engineering ,plus comes with a sub MOA guarantee .
Here in Reno NV were only allowed Leupold,Zeiss and Swarovski scope on rifles.
Spoke to soon . After local gunsmith re-bedded it,it's now Deer rifle accurate .
My local gunsmith said "When he tapped the factory bedding with a screwdriver it popped right out,plus contact with recoil lug was wrong. So he used acra glass ,but before applying it he drilled...
Had rifle at my gunsmith for evaluation . He said the factory bedding job they did was wrong creating stress. He has rebedded it plus he went over it with a fine tooth comb and now for me to try it...
Well I sent an email and left a Voice message on the service manager phone. They said he's good about getting back to people ? I was respectful and firm .
My X Bolt Max long range shoots 2"-5" MOA at a 100yds . There is a guy on Long Range Hunting forum that has same performance with his Max long range. Then he installed a Bartlein same contour bbl and...
Its factory free floated and bedded,which my gunsmith thinks could be the root of the problem.Nobody else has shot it.
Many many other browning X bolt owners rave about how well their x bolts shoot. I think my gunsmith will make it right.
Would they do that ?
Ok I just got off the phone with Browning tech guy. He said they shoot at 50yds. Also that most of the time the problem with my specific model is the bedding,the crown and a good scrubbing of the...
Thanks for responding .
But why is that ? Most people say their X bolts are awesome . But a few of us think we bought lemons . Do their actions need truing ? What about placing the rifle in a chassis ? I'm talking with a...
So its unfixable ?
Local Sportsmans warehouse had a sale on the Browning X Bolt Max long range .I shot another shooters max at the range,his was 6.5 Creedmoor. I hit a bullseye easily. So I bought one ,with book...
Has anyone tried this powder yet ?
I did a brief google search. Its a wildcat design of yesterday , seems like just another dime a dozen belted magnum case. When was the barrel made ?
Shot thru the brake today ,no way is it quieter than a side port brake. But it did reduce recoil. Huge difference between 90gr bullets and 110 gr bullets.
I have a 257 WBY chambered in a fat Remington Varmint contour bbl . Will this brake do the job ? I won't be shooting in the prone position .
Ya your right .
I have a WBY MK V in 338-378 . Can new bolt with smaller bolt head be purchased in order to change to lighter caliber ?
