Just got off the phone with Walter. I feel much better. Cannot wait for my new rifle in a few weeks. This is my planned build (crude photoshop)

Care to fill us in on what was said to make you feel better?
 
Ordered. 22” 6.5 package with Geissele SSA-E and Geissele charging handle. Nightforce waiting to be mounted. I will definitely be building some more uppers in the future.
 
I'm curious as to which 2 stage trigger these come with.
If there's a demo model around has anyone played with it yet?
I'm not sure if I should order a geissele now or wait to see what it's like
 
I can't waite for my 22 inch boat anchor to arrive! I have a Nightfoerce nxs 5 4-22 to put on it! Would you guy's be confident with just an aero precision ultralight mount?

No news?

I wonder how many people will say #### it and spend their money somewhere else this long weekend.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people end up doing just that. I have a hard time believing that there isn't already a price worked out, and understand a business wants to profit as much as possible, but losing customers is never profitable.

This, I look already for an alternative.

What kind of velocity can you get with the 6.5 in 18.5" - 19" barrels?
Some folks are considering these rifles for semi auto PRS?

I’m not sure about the 6.5.
But here’s a test I did, few months ago.
Savage 10 TR 308/ magneto chrony.

Sorry but I can’t post pics here.

Anyway, the loss was 93 FPS ,going from 24 down to 19.

There is good data for bolt guns on this at https://rifleshooter.com/category/barrel-length-and-velocity/

Presumably the velocity loss in a gas gun would be roughly proportional to a that of a bolt gun? In any event, the 142 gr bullet maxed out at 24" and lost about 3.5% of the velocity (2683 to 2590). This amounts to a drop difference at 1000m of 438" vs 477" or an increase of 9%. Not insignificant, but it's not clear if a gas gun will make that worse.

All else equal I would imagine most serious PRS gas gun competitors would emphasize balance and smoother recoiling over a little bit of speed. All I've read on large frame gassers is that they are tricky to tune and troubleshoot. I'm tempted to jump on board the train, but I would bet a full JP (+2) barrel, BCG and buffer system will outperform just about any cobbled together solutions out there.

Then again, I jumped on the Dasher train this year and am enjoying the hell out of it, so I need another project like I need a hole in my head...
