I had one of those Jewell BR models on a Stolle Panda LV BR rig years ago - a 2oz trigger takes some getting used to, and I'd never consider using one on a 22RF repeater that's going to be shot in anything but benchrest.
You don't have to set it on 2 oz. you can go up to 3 you know.
On a more serious note, why wouldn't you use if for anything else? Afraid of an AD?
Have seen several V-22 owners using TriggerTech Diamond triggers - wondering if any of you Diamond owners also have experience with Jewell HVRs. If so, would like to hear your opinions of how the two compare.
Question for those of you that have had your actions for a while now, was the bolt smooth to work or did it get better with use? The one I have is new and just feels sticky in some spots and doesn't run smooth. I assumed since it was new, and do you guys lube your bolt and if so with what.

Which Bix'nAndy?I've got a Timney Elite, Trigger Tech Diamond, Jewel BR, Flávio Fare, Anschutz 5018, Bix n Andy, and Suhl 150 triggers in my 22's. Though it's really hard to beat a nicely tuned 5018 or Suhl trigger, the Bix n Andy in my Vudoo is my favorite.
I am using a Thunderbeast TD and am very happy. Accuracy and sound suppression are tops.What surpressors are working good on the Vudoos? I have a couple tax stamps to spin my own up, but no time in the near future. I keep thinking about a TBAC Takedown or a AMTAC fireant.
I have a magazine release question. I usually have to give the magazine a little push forward when pressing the magazine release to have the magazine drop. Is this normal or should the magazine just drop when the release is pushed?
You may have to remove a little material to get the magazines to drop freely. Look for the shiny spots where the magazine rubs and take a little off with a smooth file. I had to "adjust" three of my four magazines.I have a magazine release question.

What DBM or Chassis are you using?

Grayboe Renegade stock. I just switched the release lever that came with the Vudoo to the lever with the extension that goes below the trigger guard. I think I figured it out. The new lever had a sharp/rough edge on the part that locked the magazine in place. That rough edge seemed to catch the magazine and wouldn't let it drop. I just took a small diamond to smooth that edge out and it seems to work OK now.

I ordered a Vudoo barreled-action because I already had a MPA Hybrid Chassis. Would the barreled action just drop into a Grayboe Ridgeback stock?

Thanks for the intel. New mantra is torque, lock and load.
Run is a colloquial term. Has same number of letters as use.Perfectly said Mike. The guy is "USING" the chassis. NOT RUNNING IT! You can't run these things, it doesn't have legs. It just drives me insane.
Does anyone see the word "RUN" in this photo?

Kiss of Death- maybe you could start a shooting grammar thread. I'd run to follow that.
Ouch. Guess that grammar comes from my car and motorcycle back ground. Very common phrase when discussing components on motorsport equipment.I use a Silencerco Sparrow and an AAC Ti-Rant 45M. I bought the Sparrow first and if I knew then what I do now I wouldn't have bought it. The Ti-Rant is much more versatile and to my ears just as quite.
A side note, I am still trying to figure out how people are "running" their suppressors. I can't get mine to "run" anywhere.

Many, most, people use terms that are technically incorrect. For example, the term muzzle velocity when the correct term is muzzle speed. Velocity is a vector so has both magnitude and direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity. I have never seen a traffic sign with VELOCITY LIMIT. Another is the term pressure when the correct term is traction. Pressure is a particular state of stress in the interior or a material. Traction exists at the interface between materials.
However, do people appreciate being told the correct technical term or the correct use of English language itself? Quite the opposite in my experience. Hostility with a capital H. Must be using the same words gives people the in-group feeling, just as using the same equipment. You are automatically an outsider if you use differ words or propound different equipment and therefore suspect, particularly if it or they go against the wisdom of the gurus.

You should be going to the range anyway. I consider it an honor to help you go more often.If this thread has devolved to the point of the grammar being more important than the content then I'm out. I'll spend my extra time on the range instead of the forum.

Ok, the walnut thing is off the hook—Here's a recent one I fitted up.
No bedding. 100% surface machine inlet. Took a perfectly good McMillan and stuck a Walnut bedding block in it, then 3D machined the receiver inlet, floor metal, etc.
Fun project.

Now I don't car who u r, that's some good shootin aite tar.Ok, the walnut thing is off the hook—
A few years ago, you did a the same kinda thing on an aluminum mini-chassis for me on a mag. It was a already tuned action and Krieger barrel but it was moving around in the stock and only shooting 1/2- 3/4 min.
I got it back and after you guys worked it and now it is a legit gun.

Anyway— thanks —
It is now up there with my Voduu as one of my all time favorite guns.
