    Rim fire vs LW poly smooth

    Got a friend that builds 1000 yard competition rifles. He and I are getting a bit excited at the possibilities. Hopefully with his expertise and the help of a few barrel manufacturers we will get what we think is a good starting point With the barrel. Slugs are a little different story. we will...

    Rim fire vs LW poly smooth

    I just watched Patriot YouTube video on how they developed the Javelin slug in 30 and 40 gr. Change of plan. Think Imwill follow vudoo philosophy. I will get 30 and 40 grain javelin and ATP slugs. We will measure them. Then we will make a barrel to the slug. .217 or .218 we will choke it...

    Rim fire vs LW poly smooth

    My fx m3 was shooting 24 gr slug at 1040. So it will produce the power. At 40 Gr Ken Hicks says no problem at 900-960. So we will see. LW says they can make the inside diameter whatever I want so now trying to see what ID land and groove combo will be best for standard ATP 40 gr slugs at .217!

    I was wondering about bore differences for slugs in a 22 or barrel. Thank you for the tip! agree about speed..I will start out at what they say works 900-940 and go from there. I think I will get LW to,make,the barrel here in cumming,ga. As that is about 15 mi from me! Maybe they will allow me...

    Rim fire vs LW poly smooth

    Yes Ken helped me build my Fx. Worked well with pellets. Then went to 700 mm barrel heavy liner. He had it shooting pretty well at 50 yards. i want to go out to 200 with the consistency of my vudoo. Slugs seemed to be the answer for that. But lighter ones in the 24 gr vein were all over the...

    Rim fire vs LW poly smooth

    Robson..... that's what I was wondering. My vudoo shoots the super long-range Lapua lights out as well ! My FX has a 700mm barrel. I was thinking of duplicating the bartlein on the vudoo and turning one down to fit the FX. then use the Altrus 40 gr. or 30 gr. ( thinking they closely match...

    Fx m3 impact 700 mm barrel

    Shoot 22 gr FX hybrid slugs at 100 today. Did very well. Slight wind but all in a horizontal line. That’s the slug it likes. Like to go up in weight in same slug config. Think the hybrid skirt works to seal and stabilize. Any suggestions on similar slugs?? Say in 30 gr to 32?

    Fx m3 impact 700 mm barrel

    Oh, I have understood that some have used silicone. It would hold in place maybe but still transmits vibration. Thinking solid is more preferred.

    Of course, no return if you use JB Weld! Not recommending just thinking out loud!

    Fx m3 impact 700 mm barrel

    How about a thin layer of JB Weld between the barrel and tensioning kit. Brake cleaner use to clean the surfaces. Spread a thin layer to fill gap and install. Wipe off any excess and tighten up tensioning screw. Let it set up evenly. This may well stiffen it to max in place of metal. Fx could...

    Fx m3 impact 700 mm barrel

    A tuner would be more effective if the barrel had NO Movement Or as little as possible. Hence the stainless theory. I have them on all my powder rifles and they do work. However following some of the best say they are a little finicky tells me the barrel flexes .

    Fx m3 impact 700 mm barrel

    I discussed these with SPAW in Euler Fla. Ken has helped me build this FXM3. He stated that when you fill your bottle it expands and contracts and it could change poi. Anyone else had that experience?
