I have been shooting some prone .22 at 25 yards with my Tikka T1x in a set up basically mimicking my FTR rifles the last couple of months now and have been getting some pretty good results. However I am feeling it might be good to have some competition to it. I am aware of the NSRA's not really.22 benchrest which is too handicapped for my liking, and also the UK22BR ones. I am wondering if any of you shoot any of the UK .22 benchrest postal comps and can maybe give any input what is out there and what I could maybe enter. I am currently shooting prone at 25y indoors with the factory barreled action in an MDT Oryx chassis, Moderator (acting as a barrel dampener) and my F-Class rear bag and Joypod. I am also looking to start doing some outdoor 200y shoots at my club as a training tool for newer members and bit of fun for us all.

Yeah... that is the polite way of putting it! 😂🙄

I'll second @Popsbengo's comment, I use an RCBS bench primer, and while I am sure the primal rights one is amazing, I think for me it is a better value proposition, and certainly speeds up priming and offers a good amount of feel when seating, without killing your hand either.

A long shot I know - but asking for a friend who may be interested - is this rifle still available?

I can only agree with Gungrinner - If I get my front board settled well (how well depends on if the grass needs cut) and the butt settled well in the ears of my rear bag (but not actually on the stitching) and I start with the joystick (elevation) fully up I usually have enough elevation adjustment for a 20 shot string - if not at most I will need to lower one leg my one notch to compensate for things settling in - but this just tells me I did not have the butt settled quite enough to start.

Although RE 16 is made by Nitrocheme (RS) for Alliant I don't think they have launched it in their own right yet.

Sorry, already sold the unused brass I had.

You just need to do your legwork and measure to see what fits - the specs are on the manufacturers websites!

The WSM mags are short action as you would use for RSAUM or PRC assuming it is loaded to under about 3.000" You can use it in a long action may the same as you mention assuming your chassis and action is designed for that too, but it might not be ideal.
