Very nice setup . Similar to my system . I pick mine up in a week and a half . Can't wait to hear and see the range report .
Man i can't wait for mine to show up! Ordered in august so hopefully that batch is ready to go in not too long.

Finally found a bit of time to hit the range late PM today. Her first time so oiled her up real good and fired a few break in shots at 50 yard, also to bring the POI on the paper.
Ran the brush in the bore after shot #3, #8 and 15 to detect if any copper was accumulating. No blueish-greenish patches so was pretty pleased.
The mag fed the rounds well and the bolt chambered them flawlessly. That said, man everything is so tight: even pissing lubricant from everywhere, holding back a little on the charging lever would stop the forward course of the BCG!! Letting it go from the back is what it took.
Absolutely no BS, here are the very first 7 shots at 100 yards, including 3 to establish the 100yd zero
Only had time to shoot a box of 20 rounds as I was getting cold and sun was about to set. Here is my 3rd and last target of the day:
I was shooting surplus Hirtenberger. Top quality plinking ammo IMHO. I am not a great shooter (nervous wreck) so judge by yourself.
I'm extremely pleased with the rifle. I love it. A keeper.
Thank you ATRS, your fine product makes me real happy.
I had a longer review post but it got lost in cyber space . So this is going to be shortened . Took the rifle out this weekend , put about 40 rounds through it . Functioned flawlessly . Range varied from 100-800 metres . Winds were about 3-4 mph full value . With wind I was able to keep around 1moa . So happy with the rifle . Two thumbs up . I'm not a bench rest shooter and didn't bring the equipment this weekend to shoot tiny groups . Three rounds touching cloverleaf at 100m but didn't measure it as that's close enough for me . When properly set up I'll shoot accuracy groups .
168 gr Amax with 43gr Varget. Load development hasn't been started yet but pretty happy with that .
Thanks.
Very sturdy bipod, but not a cheap option. It takes more strength than usual to lower/raised legs but absolutely no movement once set into position. Allows pan & cant adjustments, great for tracking a moving game. Claw feet are very aggressive to contact surface, they dig - kitchen table and thigh warning... I like them. Extra leg options (with rubber feet) are available on their website. Got it from ATRS.
