LSS-22 Chassis for Rimfire Bolt Action Rifles
- Thread starter .30/06 FTW
- Start date
Talley makes a rail for the 64/54 action that you can get through Nordic marksman 
The new LSS-22 stocks are very nice. I have been trying to re-inlet one to fit a 1727F action and its causing me grief to take a tool to something so nicely finished! I think I will need to get another for the 64 so I have one that has not been messed with!

@Mike112288 Having another rifle in LSS chassis, it would be ideal if one of my 22s was a "trainer" setup.
My MPR sports a pic rail, EGW is memory servers, and I mount various scopes on QD mounts. I am tempted to move the MPR to using Anschutz 6834 sites, which could also spell some trouble with the LSS.
It all feels like I'll need another 22 just for LSS setup and the "22 cabinet" will grow.

We had someone try that, but ended up doing a lot of cutting into it to make it work!
We may do a version for it!
I want to put my name on one if you do! Lol The 1727F trigger is too wide to fit a 54 action chassis! Visa is on standby!!!!!
@tac21. You will make a number of men very very happy. I mean very very happy dang I think I would fly to b.c just to pick it up!! Lol I seriously want my name and info taken down by you guys so that you can notify me. If you do make a 1727 stock I hope it's real soon!! Lol
1712 and LSS-22, I've got a winner.
This morning I was in a hurry and weather was colder,
Despite of this. 110yards, 30 shots group. It began to shine.
I've received my stock for "1416" aka Match 64. The 64MPR is fitted (nicely), I hope to be able to try it tomorrow.

Thank you Pascal for all this information.
I see you are using an older box of SK Rifle Match and it made a lovely group. From the title, I suppose this 54 setup in LSS-22 shoots better then before ?
I mostly run the waxy SK Magazine in my 64.
@TAC21 BTW, does the LSS-22 come ready to mount the night vision mount?

@pascalp. I thought the 54 action u have in the mdt chassis was a 1710 heavy barrel! It looks like a heavy barrel to me. I had a 1712 once and it was a thinner looking barrel. Do your u know if a heavy barrel 54 would fit properly and free float proper in that mdt chassis?
A Heavy Barrel is no problem and will free float. As long as it is no larger than 1" in diameter at the front of the fore-end of the chassis.
MDT LSS-22 and 64MPR tested. Assembling action and LSS is no problem, it fit tight and nicely.
Weather is colder every day, -3°C 27°F. I was obliged to keep gloves, and 2 stage trigger 250g 9oz with gloves is touchy.
A nice piece of work.
The scope is an old Tasco 24x44 with hair-dot 1/8 reticule.
The heavy match barrel, free floating.
100m 110y, SK Rifle Match.
Not bad for a first day. Not as good as the 54 but weather was colder and gloves didn't help.
To be honest, it's to soon to say how they shoot better than before LSS-22.
The benefit on comfort is great, it tend to make shooting easier. Good hold, positive let off, if the shooter is at work, results follows.
I've a good feeling about the mount quality and obviously it will improve overall performance.
The 1712 barrel wasn't free, now it is.
I had already upgraded the stock of the 64MPR, so difference is lesser than with factory stock.
Side by side 64MPR and 1712. The 1712 have thinner barrel than 1710, but it shoot so good while being light to carry.
A closer view of channels and barrels
64MPR and my old 1607 (match grade 54) have the same kind of barrel. Maybe modern 54 have a beefier barrel.
Problem with "real" Match 54 is the bulky 5071 or 5018 trigger.

I am just going to leave this as a teaser till I can get some paint on my grinder marks, lol ...
I really hope MDT will do a proper inlet for the 1727F, 1827F and new 1927F when it comes out (one size fits all). That would be a cool way to re-purpose the biathlon rifles too

Again, much obliged Pascal for the pictures and commentary.
Speaking of the light to carry 1712, tonight I showed myself how much the MPR is a beast to handle off-hand with a 4-14 30mm heavy glass atop. I need to train my arms if I intend to shoot this way.
I may need a lighter solution for offhand.
Pascal, how balanced is the MPR in the LSS-22 ? Is the PRS buttstock (I presume that is what you have) enough to offset the heavy barrel and gain equilibrium?

I did! My apologizes to MDT for treating a wickedly nice chassis in such a bad way but I did "almost" make it fit. It works perfect but requires too much material off the inside just over the trigger guard to fit the 5020 trigger. Will post more pics when the paint dries and I have it all together. I am rocking a 1727F in a folding chassis
