New Sig CROSS

For anyone like me that really disliked the tiny bolt knob, I just replaced mine with a badger bolt knob and it makes a world of difference. It also does not interfere with folding the buttstock.
Yep just unscrew the factory bolt knob and screw the badger on. I cleaned the threads and put some blue loctite on.

Second season for me hunting with the Cross. It packs small, is easy to carry and shoots well, but there are many better choices for precision rifle.

If you have not seen one mostly taken apart here you go. About the only thing left would be taking the stock, grip amd trigger out.
I'd agree, it's a good hunting rifle with some adjustability and features that make it a good generalist as well, but hopefully no one was thinking a 6.5lb shorter barreled rifle was going to be equivalent to 23lb, long barreled PRS rigs for that kind of gaming.
The VG 6 is...okay. I dont really care for the impulse of the brake on this rifle, the Grendel before it, or the Ruger before that one. I will be replacing it sooner or later. The recoil is ok. It is just the feeling of the brake that I dont like.
I run a hellfire when not running a suppressor and it’s easy shooting.
Anyone know of a way to mount the Sig Cross stock to a chassis like an MDT with. KNS buffetube to picatinny adapter?
Took my Cross out for elk and deer in CO's 2nd rifle season. Connected with both! Muley at 307, elk at approximately 275. I forgot to grab the rifle for the deer pic. He was quartering away pretty hard so while the entry was spot on, that is the exit you can see in front of his shoulder. Also did a photo shoot because it's just a damn good looking gun.
edit: Thought it was worth adding that the little buck was shot through his rear left ankle when he approached me so I put him out of his misery. The leg injury was not Cross related lol.

Let’s see some pics. Want to see what it looks like with a 22in
Well, they fixed the trigger and I believe they come with a 20moa rail now.
As well as a Magnum bolt head. The bolt heads swap so easy. No idea why they aren't jumping all over this 6.5 PRC Hype Train
Anyone with a 6.5 have some rough CBTO measurements? Doing some quick loads with a 123gr SST so I can hunt with it this next week while I'm off. I usually do the wheeler method but couldn't find anything on getting the ejector out of the bolt head and I don't want to be the first to try it 
Someone here had mentioned that the cross won't support a magnum bolt face as the barrel wall would be too thin around the chamber. I don't personally know, but I remember it mentioned way earlier in the thread.
Dave Tooley said it wasn’t strong enough for a magnums earlier in this thread. I would love one in PRC also, but probably not in the cards. Looking at the bolt, I am sure he’s right, there isn’t a lot of room to grow the bolt face.
Has anyone had issues with light strikes in the primer? I've had two now in about 30 rounds, but maybe they're bad primers? They're cci200 primers.
No, I have not had that issue. I use either Starline or Lapua SR brass with CCI BR4 primers. If that just started for you, you might want to check the firing pin.
Remove the striker assembly from the bolt carrier and make sure it’s clean. Just follow the steps in the manual.
Looks great. What barrel did mile high use? Your extension? How does it handle with the longer barrel
That looks nice. I bought my 308 specifically to be a 308 since I had a bunch of unused 308 ammo and components. Now I'm going to start wishing for a 6cm barrel.
They used my extension. Handles the same, the flutes kept the weight down.

Barrel looks nice, did you send in the original one so they could remove the extension?
