MPA Matrix Pro II

I've had mine for about 6 months. Love it. Adjustable bag rider comes in very handy. Internal weight system is great and easy to install without removing the action. The fore-end is a little wide, if I could do it over again I'd go Vanquish.
What I would change is, sell it and replace with an ACC elite. Better in every single way. In fact, That's exactly what I did. Sold my Matrix Pro 2's and bought a bunch of elites.
I have 2 Matrix Pro IIs. One in long action chambered in 7PRC and a short action in 6.5CM my wive runs. I love the bag rider and the balance. Mine are both balanced without any weights right in front of the Maxwell. I would add a mag blocker to it and call it a day. The ACC Elite is pretty sweet too, and I will have one on my next build if I don't go KRG, but I would not get rid of my Matrix PRO IIs. I really like the wide base, some people with smaller hands don't like it as much due to being more difficult to move around. Don't have that issue.
There is nothing wrong with the MPA Matrix Pro, Pro 2 or Vanquish.
Pros for me is the WIDE forearm for setting on a bag. It rides like a dream. The built in mag blocker is awesome. It does need about 1/2" chopped off on it to stay out of the way on some props positionally. I run the full set on internal weights as 1 solid piece of steel not the Gray Ops weights. I do run 1 set of the XL Gray Ops weights about the balance point for a thumb shelf and it is great. I do use the Bison Tactical Scalloped cheek rest to keep me in place behind the optic and I swapped out the standard height pins for the Tall ones.
