Vudoo Gun Works V-22 Rimfire Bolt Action

[Gros21]

Just ordered the vudoo
Black 20" mtu action
Tt diamond trigger
Black mdt acc chassis
Mdt vertical grip
3 extra mags
5-50 delta Stryker scope
Burris xtr sig rings


Now just have a 6 month wait may change the stock out for a blue acc chassis
Will start to stock up on some ammo 500~1000 of each of the known good shooters. Prolly 5000 rounds total. I already have 15000 Cci and other non ideal v22 22lr.

Misses even approved it as she was happy with the price she heard over the phone but it was only the 10% deposit

With a 20" barrel and a full ACC chassis it's going to look like this - with respect to the barrel length. For my Vudoo I had my chassis cut down to fit in an 18" and look good

Think it's threaded by standard.
I'm in Australia.
Customs will take there time demand a demand a ransom be paid, then think every serial has to be recored against the gunshop who will need to organise a direct pick up from customs 500miles away (customs will not send firearms or parts via auspost even though its 100% legal)
Then I need (permission to aquire (PTA)) to pick the gun up which cost me $40 and anyware from 2 days to 2 months depending on there work load.

Plus our state govt has put harsh restrictions on gunshops (with covid) , can only purchase guns/ammo if you are a farmer, security, profession pest controller ect ect and your license reflects that. You are screwed if you own 100~ acres and your license does not reflect that and need ammo to put down a injured animal.

My licences have RE1, sc1, sc2, pc1, pcm condtions on them so it's not easy to tell exactly what they are. I just joined a club and license. But then they just guess if you want RE1 or not which is recrational shooter which means I can shoot on a rural property. Which means I can shoot pest animals or injured stock ect ect. I never asked for this just was lucky I guess. So it means if I show proof (letter from farmer or land rates notice or rural property) I can still purchase ammo/firearms

They said gunshops are not esstional and are worried about gun violence. However can still go to the bottleshop and get into a drunken rage with partner, can still go to sex shop and buy a rubber fist, can still go to dusk candles and buy candles. Every other sport/camping shop business as normal (or as normal can be) gun shops noooooope don't want people to shoot themself or partners. Mind you we all have police checks, can't have any violent history ect ect.
Hell even if a ex puts dvo or withstraining order on you there goes your guns tills it's sorted.

Rant over. Moral of story I'm in Australia and they make everything hard.

Ok trying to decide..ax or the JP. On the pictures it looks like the barrel on the JP is not centered floating with the hand guards? Anyone confirm if that is correct or not. Planning to put a larger can on rifle (9mm) for the looks, but if it isn’t centered that would make my OCD tick off forever...

I'm partial to the can partially recessed in hand guard look myself.

Correct but I want to run my 9mm can 1-1/4 dia? And would need it to be centered. Going to just go with the AX - just have to decide if I want the flush look or a little length....

Got mine out of CA purgatory this afternoon. Waiting on a Spuhr mount and Razor Gen 2, and oh yeah an open range!

Has anyone mucked with torque settings on their Vudoos? I finally got out to shoot for the first time yesterday in 2 months. First shots through the Vudoo that I've dry fired a few thousand times at home.

I had 1 mag that I bought used that cycled very cleanly and smoothly. I had one brand new mag that had a few hitches where it took a bit more effort to get the round out of the mag and cycle. I am guessing that'll break-in over time.

I am running my Vudoo in an MDT ACC at 55 in/lbs. Is the Vudoo susceptible to torque changes kind of like the CZ's and Tikka's where people do torque testing from 20-60in/lbs? Just curious. I didn't have much time to shoot and don't know when I'll get out again. Got 100 rounds down it at 25, 65, 100, and 200 with my tested lot of SK+.

FWIW I shoot mine with whatever the chassis manufacturer recommends. My bravo was 65in/lb and my AIAX is 53in/lbs. accuracy remained the same between the two chassis’s

 

[Rob01]

I shoot mine at the Manners mini chassis spec of 65 in/lbs in the front and 45 in/lbs in the rear. Has worked in 3 different stocks I have used it in.

 

[Pocket]

Sad time
Called for info on the A.I. AX as the link has been broken for 2ish weeks, was ready to pull the trigger and apparently that set up is no longer in production. Hope maybe the AXSR? Will be but the butt sock looks like crap to me.

@vudoogunworks TAKE MY MONEY!!!

In the Lapua Test Center video, he states they use 23 inch lbs. as that's what they like. So, I use 25.

If anyone has a better recommendation for a Bravo chassis, I'm listening. But honestly I can't complain and that's the most tested data available.

 

[Rob01]

That's pretty light. Bravo says 65/45 on their site. Have you tried that?

Well I guess I'm fucking stupid. I just rewatched the video and it's 7.14 newton/meters which is 63.19 inch/lbs.

One minute in.

I have a who knows how accurate torque wrench for my bike that goes in 2,4,6,8 nm. So I just put it to 6nm and ran it. I did buy a new FAT torque screw driver so I'll use that next time and adjust it. Thanks everyone.

@RAVAGE88

Beautiful.

 

[littlepod]

That's a huge bitch!

Yeh I have to significantly lift my rifle to swap mags while in prone position... but hey no more reloading in those 12 round stages Also for NRL22's offhand shooting, it feels great resting that magazine in my palm. Finally I feel stable with my elbow to hip connection.

I think it's more dependant on the bedding surface. If you're action sits in the chassis or bedding without stress I think it doesn't matter or doesn't matter nearly as much. Back in the day of wood stocks without bedding I think is where the tuning comes from. Manners is different because of the v block bedding and the way the tang is supported which is why the rear gets a lighter torque. I think if you bed your stock or chassis it will be a lot less sensitive to torque values and you're using an abundance of torque to keep the screws from loosening and falling out. My Vudoo had just a little bit of stress in the inlet of the MPA it was in and consequently I put a little less torque on the rear screw. But the RimX doesn't have any stress in the same chassis. And they both shoot the same out of the same chassis with the same scope, trigger, and ammo. Maybe just a little bit of edge goes to the second barreled action.

The best way I have found to see if you're action has any stress is to stand the rifle up vertically on the butt. Loosen both action screws. Then tighten the rear screw. Then, while watching the barrel in relation to the forend, tighten the front action screw and watch for any movement. If tightening the screw sucks the action into the chassis or stock it's torquing the action to do so. You can find the engagement point in the screw where within half a turn it's releasing or pulling the action in that torque. And then you can rotate your wrench back and forth and watch your barrel telegraph the movement of the action torquing. If there's no stress or torquing/ flexing of the action Id just tighten them both to 60'ish.

sounds rite to me, thanks for info

Ive shot my V22 in both a MDT XRS and XLR Envy and while I own all the fancy torque wrenches Ive found it makes no different on accuracy for me. I drop my V22 into both of them, hand tighten it with my handled allen T wrench and go shoot. It obviously hasnt made a difference as I just shot a 6x5 measuring .206". As mentioned above, its a LOT less important these days with new chassis and aluminum bedding blocks in them.

^^^^THIS. I don’t give torque settings much thought as long as the stock/chassis is of higher quality.

Hi, sorry if this was recently covered and I missed it, things have been a little hectic. Have a new Vudoo that should be here soon, trying to make sure I have all my gear ahead of time. Any idea when the new Vudoo bore guide will be available? Also, I was planning on getting a Bore Tech rod, wondering what caliber rod for the V22?
Thanks for the help

the bore guide on Vudoos website works great! I bought the Dewy 20cal Coated rod and it works perfect with the bore guide.

I completed the design of the new Bore Guide and approved manufacturing for BoreTech to get started. I'm really close to receiving the first articles and once I've signed off, they'll be punching them out. We'll stock them here at Vudoo and BoreTech will be offering them as part of the necessary cleaning supplies for your Vudoo.

The new Vudoo/BoreTech guide will be compatible with Gens 1, 2 and 3, right and left hand versions. They'll also work if you have a single shot adapter in place, but you'll need a smaller diameter rod to clear the adapter.

The one with length Tbh I don’t know but can let you know via pm this evening after I get home lol

 

[NWnewguy]

I'll admit to not reading all 116 pages of posts on this, so if it's already been put out there, my apologies.

Anyway, I tried my Vudoo in the Xylo chassis today and it was probably the best magazine fit of any that I have tried and I've tried a bunch. Feeding felt flawless and smooth. I had a tricky time getting the wedge lock to engage correctly the first time so I just pulled it out because I was in a hurry. It may very well work, or it could be the recoil lug is a bit short to initially engage. Not sure on that. I removed it and carried on. It was also very nice to be able to change length of pull so significantly in different positions. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask, but really I'm just reporting that it works and works well.

[m6z]

So there's an updated v-22 in the works? Have the details been released?

 

[littlepod]

RANGE OPENED! Yay, broke in the Vudoo and the Vudoo mags... my polymer mag that came with the rifle had a lot of FTF, but it broke in after about 5 magazines worth loading. I would have some of the rounds not angle up so they wouldn't push out of the mag, and then some were too high up, probably from the previous misfeed.

The 15 rounders, the first few rounds are super duper tight. That spring tension on there must be ultra high, but it'd take a good amount of force to feed the round. The last 5 in the magazine fed like I didn't even know there was a round in the magazine or chamber when I pulled the trigger.

Windy day, then some interesting switches in wind on some of the groups. Nothing special, but it performed exactly as I expected. I knew when I pulled the trigger, or when I noticed the mirage shift and my bullet would go accordingly.

Then drills!

 

[45ACP223]

Nice! I'd like to find a lot of SK Std. + that shoots like that! I'd buy all I could find.

 

[Krob95]

Shot my Vudoo indoors today for the first time since this bullshit rona virus shut down the range and it was splendid! Shot two practice groups at 50yd to warm up (not pictured) and then shot at the little Instagram logo for a 0.3” group at 50yds (Ballistic-X doesn’t give you the option for 50yd yet). Took it out to 100yds after that and shot the middle square 10times for a 0.67” group. All shot with Center X. This Proof carbon barrel has exceeded my expectations fully!

 

[Scampo]

Decided to change things up. I recently sold the 223 barreled action that was sitting in this manner MCS-T stock with gen 1 mini chasis. I dropped the vudoo right in, torqued the action screws and all is GTG. The ten round plastic and five round aluminum mags engaged and fed flawlessly and shot just great. I love the flexibility of this action.

0.67 at 100 yards is awesome. Nice shooting. Even better when you shot a 10 shot group.

 

[Krob95]

That 10 round group in the 0.3 has got to be the best 22LR group that I've ever seen! You have got to be psyched with that! Congratulations!

Thanks man!!! I couldn’t believe it when I shot it to be honest haha

0.67 at 100 yards is awesome. Nice shooting. Even better when you shot a 10 shot group.

I prefer the 10rd groups for 22 as it’s a hell of a challenge to get a good 10rd group. I was extremely surprised I managed to pull it off! Thank you!

I have been thinking about starting this up for a while, so I decided to give it a go today to see if it draws any interest. If so maybe we can make it a sticky. Not to take the place of the 6X5 thread which I will keep going as long as there are people who want to shoot it, but rather another...

Hey guys, for anyone who is interested I just dropped Dedicatedshooter a Vudoo magazine in the mail so he can make some Kydex mag carriers for it. He has an ad up down in the PX. I have been looking for one made for the Vudoo mag instead of just the AICS version. SAP has them but I like his a little more based on what I’m seeing. He has some great prices so you may want to take a look if you need one.
