Are they hitting below the feed ramp? I think I had some doing it and just opened the lips up a little.Does anyone have feeding issues with the SRSA2 short action 10 round mags? The mags themselves feel very loose in the rifle itself and I have to shift the mag to get rounds to feed on the .308 Winchester. I purchased the magazines brande new about a year ago. Anyone have any tips to fix this or is this just par for the course?
May not be the same issue, but I have 2 srsa1 chassis and one them would not hold the mag correctly, but I could put the mag in the other chassis and it worked fine, what I ended up finding was the geometry on the mag release button ( the one you push to drop the mag) was not even close, I ordered a new one and it fixed my problem.Does anyone have feeding issues with the SRSA2 short action 10 round mags?

It’s proprietary to their bolt head.Does anyone know if the SAC .223 uses the same barrel extension as DT or if its custom for there bolt head.
Imagine if you eliminated the front 2nd row of locking lugs from a DT bolt head so you just have a 3-lug head. That's what the .223 bolt looks like. Same basic lug pattern not as many lugs and it doesn't fit into any other extension that I have so there's no mistaking that you've got the wrong bolt when you try to close your .223Rem bolt on a .308Win chamber.Does anyone know if the SAC .223 uses the same barrel extension as DT or if its custom for there bolt head.
I don’t think there’s a more fun conversion than the 223. There’s days I question why I have my 308 conversion still.Man…. an SRS Covert, SAC 223 conversion, and a TBAC 338 Ultra is just a stupid fun setup.

This is what you seek: https://talongungrips.com/gun-grips/rifle-grips/desert-tech/Just got my first SRS A1 setup. Havnt even shot it yet. Im wondering, has anyone ever stippled the grip? It seems kind of slippery.

I had what sounds like a similar problem. Go check out page 288 on this thread. I have some posts about "fixing" the mag. From March 2 and 3 of 2022.Does anyone have feeding issues with the SRSA2 short action 10 round mags?

The only thing that looks better than a Desert Tech is a custom painted one......Man…. an SRS Covert, SAC 223 conversion, and a TBAC 338 Ultra is just a stupid fun setup.

Old photo but I stippled the inner panels of the grip on both of mine. I’d just done a Bennelli and thought why not …..Just got my first SRS A1 setup. Havnt even shot it yet. Im wondering, has anyone ever stippled the grip? It seems kind of slippery.
Thank ya!!!The only thing that looks better than a Desert Tech is a custom painted one......
This looks good!Old photo but I stippled the inner panels of the grip on both of mine. I’d just done a Bennelli and thought why not …..

Anybody know how to make the bolt on a SRS A1 harder to lift? Mine gets bumped by my forearm from time to time and I get the dreaded click at the moment of truth. Measured mine with a trigger gauge and it only takes just under 2 lbs of force upward and 1/4 inch of movement to take the bolt out of battery.
Changing the cocking ramp profile wouldn’t do anything for the bolt lift when the striker is cocked.
have you tried changing your approach to pivoting the rifle? I grab mine by the forend with my left hand rather than only using the pistol grip and I’ve never had that issue. The sad reality is, that’s the nature of the bullpup bolt gun. If you add anything to keep the bolt more rigid in the locked position, that may cost you a follow up shot on a double and you’d still have issues with the platform.I know how to run a rifle. Im not out bumbling around in the brush. The situation is coyote hunting. I'm sitting with the gun on a tall Harris bipod pointed in one direction. Then a coyote appears in another direction. I then need to lift the gun slightly and pivot it over toward the approaching coyote. My right hand is on the pistol grip and my right forearm can bump the bolt handle up slightly as I make this transfer. Then, no bang. This whole sequence can happen in seconds. I find it unacceptable to have to check my bolt handle every time I reach for my safety.
I have a 24" 22 creed barrel on my SRS and it would be the ultimate coyote rifle if not for this problem. Other coyote hunters have had this same problem BTW.
Why are you looking down? You should be able to keep your eyes up and push down on the boltI have had the same problem happen when calling coyotes with mine, i do the check of making sure the bolt is down all the way, but when you look up and suddenly you have 3 coyotes running in at 100 yards and have to reposition to get on them seconds count and its hard to remember to make sure the bolt didnt raise a 1/4 inch in all the chaos only to hear a click.
Try it with live ammo.I just tried to recreate this (unloaded). I used my wrist to move the bolt handle up over an inch (as high as it will let me), then I pull the trigger and the bolt handle slams down into position. I assume the firing pin would have done its normal thing and “gun go bang”, but I'm not in a position to test and confirm this with live ammo. Does your bolt do this? This is the newer A2 bolt, just for reference.
What I said is correct. You are talking two different things. Sounds like you prefer a safety that locks the bolt. Get one of those to hunt with and be happy.Nope. Many are designed in which when the safety is on, the bolt is locked.
I've done this before. It actually works. Just looks stupid and the rubber bands don't last long.What I said is correct. You are talking two different things. Sounds like you prefer a safety that locks the bolt. Get one of those to hunt with and be happy.
Maybe you can run a rubber band around the mag and across the bolt handle. Could possibly hold the bolt down and still let you cycle the action if need be. Just a quick thought.
