    EWQuinn,
    What round is marked on your receiver 223 or 5.56? Is your barrel marked with either?

    fisma,nice gun also:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 428 ✭✭EWQuinn


    FISMA, nice bolt gun.

    The Rock River receiver and barrel are not marked but it has the Wylde chamber, the hybrid that accepts 5.56 ammo but has a freebore length (cylindrical area ahead of the case mouth) and leade (angled transtion from freebore into rifling) in between the the tighter dimensions of the .223 and the longer 5.56.

    Remmy 700 sps in .223 with a vortex viper 4-16x50

    Its had the trigger tuned in it and it's in the shop at mo having a PSE etac stock made and fitted plus a mag system going into it. I'm going mad to chop 2 inches off it to bring it down to 20" Also have a third eye tactical rail to replace the warne bases. Looking forward to getting her back! Some lovely rifles up here!

    Excellent! Let's see those 600ya groups when she returns!

    Are those the Vortex machine-matched rings?

    Check out the Night Force 20moa rail. I really like mine.

    Hah I don't know about 600yds but will have to try for a laugh! The mounts are warne maxima's. I intend on replacing them with third eye tactical mounts to go with the rail when funds allow it. It's only used for foxing/varminting.

    T3 1in8 20inch
    Roedale Ultra Light Mod 277grams :D (doesn't change poi for when you want to feck about with blowing your own chest cavity)
    Trigger reworked to just under 1.5lb
    PSE composites T3 stock sprayed PSE Green
    Warne High Mounts
    Deben 9-13
    Kaps 8x56 number 4 ret

    I still have a few more bits to do to her (possibly rework her to a 204 in a few years) I am enjoying the point and shoot.. its just an outright fox gun bar the odd round thrown down at a orange looking rabbit..
