Thanks guys!
Appreciate the comments on the photography, another hobby though I've sold a lot of camera stuff lately to pay for gun stuff. Yes, expensive glass used in the photo... (5D III, 85 f/1.2 L II, 135 f/2 L). The Kahles 624i still costs more though.
The action is DLC coated. The bolt, bolt knob and top rail are untouched and same as they came from the factory.
Yes, AICS mags used in the photo with the spacer kit for the Dasher case. The action is cut for AW mags so I could run those if I wanted as well. I also have one of the new ARC 10 round double stack magazines on preorder that should be released in a month or two.
The bubble level is from MK Machining, as is the scope throw lever. The scope throw lever is plastic, the bubble level is their machined aluminum model.
Yep, single feeds just fine. Just need to close the bolt to clip the extractor over the case head, same as with a push feed action.
On bolt binding, my DLC coated action seems resistant to binding. The bolt is very forgiving for off axis pressure. I have to try hard to get it to bind, strong upward pressure on the bolt will do it or really strong left/right pressure. As it breaks in I'm sure it will improve further, but even right now in normal bolt operation it's almost zero effort to push the bolt forward with no catching or dragging. Bolt cycles very fast!
