Tac Ops Rifles

[clonebuilder]

For Xray 66 owners, how does the Federal 215gr FGMM shoot out of the 24-26 inch barrels?

Two Delta 51's inbound to San Diego Cali ...
Just put on the Fed Ex truck

Mike R.

You spelled "Scottsdale" wrong.

 

[HenryTheAce]

@HenryTheAce do it the rifles are amazing. I was indifferent until I talked to Mike now its the only rifle I use.

Well I did it! Stoked to receive it

 

[MikeRTacOps]

You spelled "Scottsdale" wrong.

I was just thinking about you had your rifle in my hands today getting very close to going to Birdsong

"The TacOps isn't done until the Birdsong sings."

When I'm done with this day-job shit, poetry is my next gig.

Deposit sent to Mike today for an X-Ray 51. If anyone is seriously thinking about ordering a Tac Ops rifle, in the name of all that is good, please don't think as much and as long as I did. Call Mike, listen to what he says then do it.

Mike, thanks for your expertise, professionalism and patience.

Agreed, i was gonna go with 300 PRC and im glad i was talked out of it before I sent the check and stuck to the tried and true Xray 66 configuration. Cant wait!

Probably will end up picking up the suppressor too.

I sent Mike a lengthy PM and when we spoke I laid out all these ideas. Mike came back with - “You should do a Delta-51 and let me do it my way.” I thought about it for a couple seconds and concluded that as Mike was probably right - the man’s been doing this since I was a lad and his reputation and expertise are the reason I called him in the first place.

I did a very similar thing, told Mike what I had in mind and he said, "No you don't want that, this will work much better for what you want to do"... after a great discussion I'm going to end up with a much better rifle!
I encourage anyone on the fence about ordering one of these rifles to reach out to Mike and get one ordered, you won't be disappointed, and I'm sure he won't be making these things forever!

I selected this X-Ray 51 photo from this thread to remind me of what's coming. I smile every time I look at it.

Are those the test targets that come with the rifles?

 

[deltawiskey]

Are those the test targets that come with the rifles?

Yes... and I'm not sure that I have seen a test target that doesn't start out with .0

Does Mike do any builds off a chassis?

I don't think that I have ever seen one, but that would be a question best asked of Mike.

Hell, he told me mine wouldn't leave the shop if it wasn't shooting in the 0s on the test target. I imagine that's a reflection of Mike and the way he likes to do business.

 

[bbpatriot]

3 shot 1 hole group! Shot it today off a Harris bipod prone @ 110yds. Mike R. builds an outstanding work of art that some people call a rifle. Believe me it’s much more than that! Mike R. was the first one to call, congratulate me and to share the moment!

 

[Lowlight]

I sent Mike 3 chassis and he mailed them all back, LOL

 

[ryu_sekai]

Im feeling a certain group of goofballs famous for bombarding people might have some fun with this….

Ask Frank about the gifts he received last year!

 

[Lowlight]

I consider it a win we got a magazine in the bottom of the rifle now,

Eventually, a chassis will happen, sure, it will be the day after I am diagnosed terminal, but eventually a chassis will happen.

Until then, Bottom metal for the win

[HenryTheAce]

Delta-51 in 6.5creedmoor arrived today!!! So glad I scooped this thing up in the PX. What a beauty, thanks again @EazyID!

Also thanks @MikeRTacOps for taking the time to talk and checking in to talk about the rifle even though I’m not the OG owner! Sorry I missed your call earlier, still trying to knock down this erection by fondling it.

Hitting the range next week!

 

[tlg308]

@HenryTheAce that things bad. If you have the opportunity to shoot it at some distance do that and not waste your time at 100. 300 and farther these things are truly impressive.

No doubt! Luckily I have access to range out to 1k yards

 

[MikeRTacOps]

[MikeRTacOps]

Two Delta 51's left to NM and two Tango 51's on the way to Chi Town. I just left Santa Claus work shop we did a few shots because its cocktail hour and he's a big Tac Ops fan I couldn't say no lol. He assured me they will make it on the sleigh tonight and that he didn't want to wake up with Rudolph's head in his bed tomorrow morning I told him to chill it was all good LOL

@MikeRTacOps would you build on a Foundation Centurion or KMW sentinel stock?

I have short fingers.

I'd build you a Howitzer with a Tac Ops Can if you had the money Of course, I'll be building a platform soon on a KMW stock as soon as Terry sends it to me...
PM me your number and let me know the window of Op to contact you...

I think a TacOps would look at home in the new KMW Zealot chassis

If I had the funds, I would totally try to convince you to build me an x-ray in one of those...

[BDunn]

Hmmmm…. That rifle looks familiar !

[BDunn]

My wife told me to pick out a scope for my in coming Delta 51 in .308...
I'm thinking a Steiner M7Xi 2.9-20 MSR2 reticle, maybe the new Zeiss LRP in 3-18???
What optics are you guys running?

[BuLLet]

Took my X-Ray 51 out today.. I think it's the 3rd time shooting it.
Tried a new loading from Thanksgiving with it.

SMK 168, 41 grains Reloder 15
New Winchester Brass, WLR Primers

Just a generic load to have fun and use up some old powder I had laying around.

200 Yards, crappy table and off a Harris Bipod!

 

[J Scott]

Always good to see some actual groups. Thank you for posting and good shooting.

 

[JakeM]

Have you seen any issues with the FGMM 175gr smk?
I shot three boxes through my tikka, and one of the tree boxes had two rounds that could not be chambered, due to the bullets being to big.
