Thanks for the information, I suppose if I want to play big boy games I’ll need big boy Ammo. I can always burn up my SV inventory in other toys.

Padom,
What barrel is up next? And when do you think it will be?
Bartlein is up next. I am pulling the Green Mountain now that Ive shown its capabilities at 50 and 100yd. Will get the Bartlein out at 50yd hopefully tomorrow.
I assume all will have the same chamber cut in them? Do you expect any performance increases from the other barrels? Will they be cut with the same reamer and by KA?
@Zermatt Arms has really hit it out of the park with this one! I cant get over the accuracy and consistency of this RimX. Every barrel I screw on shoots insanely accurate taking top spots on the 6x5 Challenge @ 50 and 100yds and they keep getting better.
See my full review thread for more pictures and details but screwed the Bartlein on this morning and shot this at 50yds. 6x5's in the 0.1's with 3 different types of ammo!! 10x5 in the .1's with CenterX?!?! Talk about consitency.
So this is shooting better than Vudoo?
I mean you can make those final determinations but mine is for sure.
What contours make sense here with a 20" barrel? I'm thinking of something slightly lighter than an MTU, but there is such an abundance of contour types not sure which way to go.
Jeff
Sorry I should have been more specific. NRL 22 and 22 PRS Matches.Make sense for what? For you? for NRL22? Competition? Hunting? Truck Gun? Only you can answer that question as you have provided no info on what youre doing with the rifle.

Without reading this entire thread, is anyone selling complete rifles with the RimX action? Thanks,

I'm pretty happy with a heavy Palma but I don't think that's offered in any prefits. Your options are Proof Steel heavy sporter (very similar to a HP, Keystones M24(same as a heavy Palma but with a straight taper vs a sporter taper), Proofs competition contour. Fatter than a MTU and a pig
Keystone Accuracy is offering any barrel contour you want for their RimX prefits. Including all the RimX sale barrels.
On there website it states "Padoms Choice," is that your chamber profile you supplied to them? I am looking at that benchmark 3 groove. Don't know which one would be better?
I just ordered a barreled action w/the green mountain barrel in a 20” heavy Palma contour.Keystone Accuracy is offering any barrel contour you want for their RimX prefits. Including all the RimX sale barrels.
Well Bartlein just started doing carbon wrapped barrels so maybe someone can convince them to do a rim fire one.It would be cool if someone carbon wraps them

I ordered a GM with a Heavy Palma, so it's not for me, but some people like to have a carbon wrapped option. Just want to say thanks for all your work, this really taught me the importance of chamber in a rimfire.Why? They dont heat up and if weight is a concern get lighter profile contour...

Carbon wrapped barrels just look cool.#3 isn't exactly pencil thin. In fact most barrel manufacturer list #3's as heavy sporter or magnum Sporter.

Got my 3 new billet 15rd mag extensions on the way from Zermatt! Will be nice to shoot a full 6x5 now without reloading my 3 mags
I just ordered Extensions from Zermatt and Mags from ALTUS, Other than ALTUS, mags were a bit scarce. Though I have to admit I didn't ask Keystone if they had them.
Jeff
Just looked, Zermatt says out of stock.Zermatt was out of mags? They told me they had a ton a week or two ago when I grabbed some more from them.
Had a nice long conversation with @Frank Green over at Bartlein barrels today. Those of you looking for Bartlein RimX prefits like mine tested above can place orders with Keystone Accuracy. The will have some blanks coming from Bartlein. Pricing and timeframe will be available in the next day or two.
I also talked to Frank about your guys requests for Bartlein carbon wrapped 22lr RimX prefits. We can do that too. Need 10 preorders and I can get Bartlein carbon fiber RimX prefits to you guys. These would be 20" finish length M24 barrels. If there is another contour everyone really really wants, I can probably do 5 of one contour and 5 of the other. These would be finished by Keystone Accuracy and chambered with my 22LR Match Eachus chamber just like my Bartlein posted yesterday.
PM me if your interested in a Bartlein carbon 22LR barrel.
