Not sure but just got my new Gen 2 V22 and it has it like that also.
Got my 360 in March and it has the bolt stop in the "normal?" spot.
Nice set up! How do you like your ZCO840? I‘m currently running a Nightforce BEAST on my Vudoo. I run a ZCO 527 on my 6CM and 223 rigs, and I love the ZCO’s.Finally got my ZCO840 on Friday to go with my Vudoo360.
8-month wait on the rifle and a 4-month wait on the scope.
I'm getting too old for waiting like this, Never Again!
I like it really well and have no regrets buying it.
Thank you. I really like the MDT Elite grip. I was going to buy another ZCO, but I had a brand new NF BEAST just sitting in the safe and thought it would work great on the Vudoo. I’m going to use the NF for now, but I might end up selling it to fund another ZCO.I like it really well and have no regrets buying it.
Great glass, precise controls, and great tracking like I've always heard about ZCO.
I also find it very attractive for what that's worth.
Your rifle and Nightforce Beast are really nice too!
I recently purchased an MDT Elite grip like yours for my ARS chassis and like it very much.
That's how I used to do it on other rifles that didn't have a swivel stud when/where I ran the Sinclair bipod.
I have an ARCA rail attached to my chassis. I used this Warne adapter to work with the bipod’s sling stud mount.

I am a big fan of Warne products, but going from ARCA to sling stud so a Harris (or cheaper) bipod, seems like a down grade in potential performance.I have an ARCA rail attached to my chassis. I used this Warne adapter to work with the bipod’s sling stud mount.

Beautiful rifles. I love the old school target rifles. I've got a couple Schultz and Larsen single shot 22's with diopter sights that I should take some nice photos of. The one closest to the camera is a 22, and probably has the nicest beech stock I've ever seen.
What is the centerfire on the bipod? That is a very interesting action.Beautiful rifles. I love the old school target rifles.

Then there's this one, it's got a 1.5 oz set trigger and the rifle weighs almost 16 lbs. I keep thinking I should make a scope mount that replaces the rear sight so I can see what I'm shooting at, but if I've got the right targets, I can do reasonably good with it, about 3/16" to 1/4" groups at 25 yards with good ammo and a rest or prone.
It took a fair bit of work to get 50+ years of dirt and grime out of the stippling, but it was worth it. When I got it, you could barely tell the wood had any amount of figure to it.

That rifle is a Norwegian made Kongsberg 393, chambered in 308. It's a 3 lug bolt action based on the Finnish Lakelander. The weaver bases are machined as part of the action, and it's got an internal rotary magazine that can be unloaded by pressing the lever beside the ejection port. Not exactly a common rifle, and I've only ever seen pictures on the internet of one other target rifle like it. Hunting rifles with this action are relatively common though, and I've got a Finnish made 30-06 with the original version of it, while my brother has a Swedish made 6.5x55 hunting rifle based on the same action. The Finnish made one has a 9 lug bolt rather than a 3 lug, but is very similar. Turns out I tried to buy this one in 308 twice before finally getting it, without realizing it was the same rifle I had tried to buy several years before.
Good luck, they're cool old rifles. Not a ton of info out there, but there's some. I don't know how easy they'll be to find in the US, but here in Canada, we had a really cool import company that used to bring in all sorts of interesting European guns. They're still in business, but have scaled way back unfortunately, and their inventory isn't nearly as interesting as it once was. I've bought at least 7 rifles from them over the years, and have never been disappointed with what I got.
Thanks for the kind words. The range is in central BC, Canada, and about 10 minutes from my house. Steel targets out to 945 yards on the rifle range, and 364 yards on the pistol/ rimfire range. It's pretty awesome, if I'm there during the week, I've quite often got the place to myself. It's cheap too, $80 a year for the membership. We recently had the western finals for the Canadian rimfire precision series there, which was a lot of fun. There's a lot of room to spread out for a match like that when we can use the whole range, but for club matches we just use the pistol range. Here's a couple videos one of the guys did from the big match, and you can see some of the area we have to play with.
It seems like it's the same everywhere, were just further along in the process than you guys are. Between machine tools and 3d printers, they'll never disarm us all though. But then I'm probably some kind of extremist, the Canadian way seems to be to roll over and let the government do whatever they want to us. The crazy part is how many gun owners are ok with it, seeing how their guns aren't the ones being banned, yet. So many miss that last part though.
