    One of the best reviews I’ve seen. I can tell you’re an honest good person. Me and my buddy have built several prs type rifles for our own use. Using stocks from Foundation,MDT,Manners,McMillan,KMW and etc. Barrels from Kreiger,Bartlien,Rock Creek,and etc. Actions from Bat,Impact Precision,Surgeon,Kelbly and etc. I must say I agree with you ( it’s a personal preference thing) they are all top notch. They have all shot unbelievable.

      Completely agree!
      Sometimes you just have to accept that some people like chocolate and some people like vanilla!
      Doesn’t mean that either is bad or good, they both are good just personal preference.

    Really nice setup. I dig the lay out and the thought process that went into it. Like anyone that gets into high end customizing of any weapon , it's always evolving along with your skill sets . Sometimes it's hard to say enough and start a different project

    My main competition gun is an AIAX, but I’m building out a 6arc shorty bolt gun with an 18” barrel in a whiskey 3, similar set up to yours just tiny. Gonna run some load development and see how it shoots in competition and just for fun. Love your set up dude!!

      @wingding028 yeah Phil had a prototype and I got my hands on it when I went through a course of his back in 2021 and I fell in love with it and I tried to hold out. I think I lasted three days after it officially released before I broke & bought one. I got a buddy up in Canada. He said it was a pain in the butt get it up there so I can imagine how much of a pain it is for you.

    Aw mags are the best. I’ll never go back to acis. Granted you really have to have an action that works well with them. But so easy to load and feed

    • @Calcium-Carbide

      Do you use a specific mag? Just got an AW action but barreled it in 6.5cm which feels like a mistake for AW mags.

    Matt when you shoot off your tripod do you pull the rifle into your shoulder

      Technically, yes, but I’m only doing it to maintain a solid connection so I’m not gripping itit any more than I would if I was slightly compressing a plastic bottle.
