Vudoo Gun Works V-22 Rimfire Bolt Action

#6,108
50 and 100yd 6x5’s from tonight both suppressed and unsuppressed. Unsuppressed definitely did better over all, but suppressed is still good enough for the girls I go with 😁 Didn’t help I had AR’s blasting next to me in an indoor range

AVG group size unsuppressed 50yd target: 0.74moa with the smallest being 0.27moa

AVG group size unsuppressed 100yd target: 0.78moa with the smallest being 0.48moa

AVG group size suppressed 50yd target: 0.85moa with the smallest being 0.65moa

AVG group size suppressed 100yd target: 1.05moa with the smallest group being 0.71moa.

Shooters, I need your help. I purchased a bag of Pro-Shot patches for cleaning my Anschutz 22 and there is a lot of loose fibers and the patch edges are easily pulled apart. I suspect this may be the case for any brand of cotton/flannel patches, but wanted to ask this Forum for your experience.

Is there a brand of patches you would recommend based on your experience?

Thanks!

I use VFG pellets or Southern Bloomer patches. Typically at the range after a session I run 3 dry VFG's down the bore and the 3rd one is clean. For deeper cleaning I'll use the patches to distribute chemicals to soak followed with brushing and pellets for final clean. Based on bore scope images it works.

I pay more attention to keeping the chamber carbon ring free. Typically I'll use Bore Tech carbon remover in the chamber after 100-150 sessions and just dry pellet the bore. I leave a wet patch in the chamber for 10 minutes, then use a bronze or nylon brush (depending on my mood) bronze by hand, nylon spun slowly with a variable speed drill motor. When the accuracy starts to drop off I'll deep clean the bore with Bore Tech Rimfire blend soak/brush/dry pellet method.

Seems to be working well after 12K plus rounds on a 1st Gen 18" Ace barrel.

I got the shipping notification on my barreled action today as well but my expected delivery date isn’t until Monday :(

I would have paid for faster shipping if I would have thought about it lol

Yeah. Not sure which is harder, waiting the 8+ weeks for the build, or the 3 days for it to ship across the country. Kind of like having a kid. Lol. And don't think for a minute there won't be lots of baby pics of my firstborn Vudoo.

I think the shipping wait is going to hurt worse knowing it’s so close but still out of reach. At least you’ll have the weekend to get acquainted with your new addition.

I have been lurking here for about a month now and joined on 6/8 and have been reading this thread from the beginning. I have never heard or read such glowing comments about a Company it's People it's Product and Service as I have about Vudoo Gun Works. Been shooting 22 rimfire for 65 years and have been chasing small hole groups for the last 8 years since I retired. Shot Rugers, CZ's, Anschutz's, and a Kidd Supergrade. Couldn't hold off any longer so I called on 6/10 and ordered a V-22 complete rifle from Jill. It could not have gone any smoother. Then I called back a couple of days later for an add on to my order and spoke to Lisa and again it went great also. Now comes the hard part after cogitating about the rifle build. The WAIT! I also got some great recommendations about some fine products that seem to meet everybody's approval. 1. Bore Tech's Carbon Remover and Rimfire Blend. 2.20/20 Concepts Patch Worm. 3. Bore Tech's new V-22 Bore Guide. Now I would like to add one for all of you to try. Have always wanted to have a Bore Scope to see how clean my guns are after I clean them but didn't want to spring for the money. A YouTube video on Bore Scopes I watched feature a USB 26" plug and play Bore Scope camera by Teslong on Amazon for $80. I'll add a link below. It works GREAT! I was able to actually see how well the Bore Tech Carbon Remover really worked in my Kidd barrel chamber. I have ordered a scope and ammo now just waiting.

I stopped in at my local shop, brotherhood arms and picked up a barreled action today. They had a few others left on the shelf yet, so no wait time for em. Threw some random parts at it that I had laying around so I can clean up on some critters over the weekend.

I ordered mine in april and it took about 7 weeks. Of course all that time seems like a eternity. To top it off, I'm fixing to put it up for sale since I acquired another during the wait time.

Looks good. Can I ask what the objective diameter is on that scope and what height M10 rings you are using? Trying to figure out what ring height I need.

It’s a 56mm objective and either low or medium rings. Better chance of being lows but I can’t say for certain. Sorry I spend a lot of time just shooting and not on notes

Thank you. I have a set of the M10's mediums laying around that I would guess should work with the ATAC-R I plan putting on whenever it decides to arrive. The NF 56 mm objective has an outside diameter of 65 mm. If you get a chance and would like to help me out I would appreciate the outside diameter of your scope objective. Is that a 30 moa rail?

Thanks again,
Gjmen22

I'm using the M-10 mediums, 60 MOA rail, with my ATACR. No problems. There's about 1/8" of space left between the bell and the barrel.

Lows would be really close. I run 1" rings and there's a small amount of clearance, which can vary based on what sort of caps you're running or if you want to run a bikini, etc.

I was considering the ARC Low's but they're .94" and I felt they were too low, so I went with Seekins 1". I run ARC mediums on my other rifle.

30MOA rail.

What barrel profile? MTU or Kukri?

For those who shipped their V22's to Lapua testing center, did you just use the original cardboard box that the Vudoo came in or did you buy a larger hard case box? I'm just shipping my barreled action.

It's been about 2yrs; best I remember, I sent mine out to Lapua in Mesa in the original foam padded cardboard box that VGW shipped it to me in.

The box the barreled action comes in is pretty good. The foam is pretty dense too. I wouldn't worry about it getting damaged. Besides, it was already shipped to your dealer in that same box and it is still in one piece, correct? Now if you were sending a scope with it, which isn't necessary, I might want a little more protection. You can always contact them and see what they recommend. Personally, I'm going to make the trip, it looks like it could be a fun day. However, I'm only about and hour and a half away from the Marengo test center. I hope you post your data sheets afterwards so we can see the data.

I would've saved a good 30$ shipping the original foam packaging versus a hard case. Lapua told me not to send it in the cardboard as they have seen some get damaged. Oh well. Rather safe than sorry.

Gjmen22, I drove to the Marengo facility too. I live in Wisconsin, so I stayed the night in a hotel and then drove over the short distance to the facility early in the morning, to meet Luke. I learned a few things from him and we tested my Anchutz 1903 BA. I think you'll like spending the day with him and testing the various lots of ammo. I plan to make the trip again in the fall, after I receive my Vudoo (on order).

Nice shot, dumb question but how did you use Ballistic-X to go multiple group on the same target like that? I have been wondering how for a while.
