Rimx Rifles

[Shooter1971]

I placed an order for one with a benchmark pre-chamber. I will be stocking it in an MDT ACC. Wondering how people are liking them so far and curious about different setups. I went with a 22" mtu.

I have a 457 with an ibi bbl that is unbelievably accurate, I wanted the rimx just because life is too short not to get what I want lol. It will be used for prs rimfire type matches.

Please post your specs and pics if you can and thoughts on these vs some of the other offerings out there.

Cheers

I seen one run very by a proper operator, it was nice to watch! Great setup you have planned. Please post pictures and results.

Definitely keep us posted with your range reports .
I have 2 x 457 MTR's that are fantastic , just as you wrote ''Life is Too Short''

Looks like another nice 700-footprint 22lr action!

$125 US for the magazine... Ouch

It is all machined aluminum but ya...ouch. translates to 175 CDN. Thankfully one is included. I never shot a match requiring more the 30 shots in a stage so 2 mags with extensions and ill be gtg.

Maybe they will release a polymer mag at some point

Just thinking out-loud
- The OCD in me likes to have at least 5 magazines
- Even more so if it's a proprietary design

--*-*--

Let us know how it shoots, it ought to be one interesting build.
What kind of glass have you got planned for it?

 

[Shooter1971]

Ya...I hear ya. Good point on the proprietary design too.

I have a bushnell lrts 4.5-18 with a g3 reticle. Bought it on sale plus the 30% bushnell rebate, was an easy sell at 800$ or so. Its a spare right now so likely to use it and see how i like it. Parallax only goes to 50 yards so not sure how it will do on the outlaw matches that have 25 yard stages

Silly question: Would a magazine for a Bergara/Vudoo work in it?

 

[Shooter1971]

No, unfortunately
