How did you guys get on the Mini Fix band wagon? I've been pestering KB for months.

We were on the pre-order for the minifix back in Jan 2018. We put 1/2 down and made a donation to the soldier foundation.

Well that’s not a nice assumptionI think it was a super secret, suck KBs cock, pay 100% ,up front, pre-order.
It was a nice trade off. I communicated with him through IG and other forms of social media, gave him feedback and photos of all the Q rifles I have purchased and showed much interest in the mini fix. Kb invited me out to build it and I was able to get him an autographed skateboard from a buddy of mine. Very nice crew up in NH at the Q headquarters. I plan on going back and bringing the family with me. Attached is a photo of my son and his new mini fix. Although I don’t expect him to be using it any time soon so I’ll do the honors for him. Merry Christmas everyone! Hold your loved ones and remind them of how much you love and care for them. It is a mean and crazy world out there and we sometimes need to remind each other that love still does exist. Hopefully this photo makes some of you smile or laugh.How the hell did you get one of these?? Ive been watching for them religiously. And #27? Damn thats my number. Im jealous.
ahhh...just saw your above post....
On another note. This here is a 10 round group with my 6.5 cm fix with proof barrel. Ammo of choice this day was some Hornady match 147 grain.
Badass man! I just ordered a Fix in 6.5. I had an early version 308 for a while, but I sure couldn't make it do that! Hopefully I have better luck with the 6.5.
What are you guys doing for a 16" proof carbon 6.5?
I see Tag has them for crazy money, but @Supersubes 16" 6.5x47 is looking super sexy, and I think he did something different. Shed some light for me?
I did my own. Tooley could do one for you I believe. Digging the 6.5x47. Functions beautifully from the standard mags, and I’m happy with the speed.
Mine is running a 24 inch 6.5 carbon proof. Although I’d like to get my hands on a 16 inches. Mine too originally was a 308Badass man! I just ordered a Fix in 6.5. I had an early version 308 for a while, but I sure couldn't make it do that! Hopefully I have better luck with the 6.5.

Does The Fix ship with any Q-Sert picatinny rail sections to mount a bipod? My fix is en route.

Anyone going to consider the new Sig Cross? It would be interesting to see comparison data since the Sig is half the price of the Fix.
Well this is disappointing. I was out tonight looking for pigs. Had an opportunity for a shot but had a light strike. Thinking I probably bumped the bolt handle up since I was wearing gloves I cycled it, waited for another opportunity, mindful not to bump the bolt and had another light strike. 3rd round finally went off. Connected at 450yds but it looked like a larger boar and he went into the treeline which was only a few yards away.
I've had some #34 not want to fire but these were br-2's.
Low 40s to high 30s tonight so maybe grease got in where it shouldn't and slowed the firing pin down?
I'll have to take a look at it tomorrow.
I assume you’re reloading. A possibility could be you are bumping your shoulders back too far when resizing you’re brass. Hornady make a gauge for measuring shoulder bump. Same thing happened to me in a match. .002 too much can make it do exactly what you’re describing.

Possible but I kinda doubt it. Both my barrels are b/t and they have the tightest chambers of any of my rifles. 308 factory brass measures about 1.620" usually and my fired brass is 1.622-3". I actually had another one Saturday so 3 in the last 10 rounds. The ones that didn't go off measure about 1.618".
Either way it's on its way back to q now.
That's my thinking. I've had quite a few rifles with fired brass that measure out at 1.625 to 1.628 and have never had issues. I tried a few rounds with #34 primers and those took two tries to light but kind of understandable. Not setting off br-2's was the last straw for me. The feeding issues I've been putting up with for a while but haven't felt like sending it in. Traded off one scope and illumination crapped in another so I would be down a rifle anyway this time. I'm not sure when or where the brass that's oversized came from. I just know I had it marked once fired and it's FC so no big loss if I lose some hunting.Ill be curious what they say. With correct FP protrusion this shouldn't happen. Even with the cartridge able to move forward .004" more then normal it should have plenty of depth to strike an ignition
Ya, BR2s are very soft. You aren't dreaming the primer pocket ? I messed up that and went deep enough an AI AW had problems igniting BR2s and that rifle had a very aggressive firing pin.That's my thinking.

Welp, that's a bummer. Hope it's back in your hands soon and good to go. My original barrel (bartlien tooley) was shooting at best a little over 1 moa, it went in and when it came back with a new tube it was much better then half with factory ELDMs. So I've got faith in their CS deptNope
I haven't followed the thread for a while. Has Q acknowledged and fixed the feeding problems for 6.5 Creedmoor? I just shot with a friend and was able to contrast his buttery smooth Tikka T3 action with my own shitty feeding for the Fix.
