I have the PST Gen II, a kukri barrel, large bolt knob, the Vortex precision matched medium rings, and a 30 MOA rail. Everything clears just fine. I also have the Vortex wrap around throw lever on it. With that lever on, I can't get the full magnification ring, because it hits the receiver on one side, so I have about 8-25x.What ring height is everyone using for the vortex viper pst 5-25? Wanna hear is any one has issues with the bolt knob hitting with that scope..
Question for you. I have the same set up but with 20 MOA base. I did a mechanical zero then went to the range. I expected to dial down for 50yard zero however ended up raising up about 6MOA to zero. Curious what you did.I have the PST Gen II, a kukri barrel, large bolt knob, the Vortex precision matched medium rings, and a 30 MOA rail. Everything clears just fine.

Very nice. Mine is pictured a few photos up. I have the green MPA chassis with SS barrel. Pic taken outside on my matt.
Here are shots 11-20. The first magazine was sighters. Pretty sure the two to the right were me. Eight of the ten shots measured .375 outside to outside. The entire group measured .562 out side to outside. I'm sure it will do better. One group may not mean much but it's off to a good start! Dark set in and I was losing my cross hairs, maybe more shooting this weekend. Rain is suppose to set in tomorrow through Friday.

That’s a nice collection. I don’t know if the wife would appreciate me having more then one Vudoo lol..I wanted to go with a light carbine, something much handier for shooting out of my truck and easier to get out with in a hurry when a shot at a varmint presents itself unexpectedly. I ordered in a V-22 bbl'd action w/18" Ranch profile bbl, which is the lightest one VGW lists. Wanted it finished at 22", but 18" was as long as they could go with the light contour bbls. It's as handy as I could've asked for, even with a 22TD mounted, and the ACE bbl is as accurate as any of the other custom bbls I've got on heavier .22s - it's just a bit harder to hold it steady as the shot breaks when shooting off a bench. I've got a Krieger #4 sporter contour .22RF blank ordered, with the intention of fitting & chambering it for the Ranch carbine, but finishing it at 22". It'd be just a tad heavier than the ACE Ranch, even if left at the same 18".
But I've just finished a Shilen select match ratchet rifled #5 contour bbl for a CZ457 American that didn't shoot well for me with its OEM bbl - and this bbl is shooting really well in initial testing. Because of how well it's shot so far, I'm considering getting another one in the same contour for the V-22 Ranch. With some minor contour adjustments, it'll fit nicely in the Manners EH2 I have the Ranch carbine in, and at 22", will balance better than the little 18" Ranch bbl (bottom rifle in the attached photo). Anyone else here have any experience with Shilen .22RF bbls on their V-22s (or any other .22RF rifle)?

Nice rifle and shooting....have you had a chance to weight your rifle? What do you think about the rifle case...worth the $$$?
How does the Shilen shoot compared to your kukri profile barrels (ace, Bart, or Krieger)? Very curious as I spoke with someone that said Shilen is designed for bench and does great at those distances. Once you go to 150-300 yd they can't match the performance of the other barrels.
18" specter. Someday, perhaps, my form 4 will be approved for the El Camino.What contour barrel?
30338 - Is that the Specter contour? Looks just a little heavier than my Ranch.
I put a 22" Kukri bbl'd action into a McMillan adj A5 stock for a customer, but didn't take any photos of it before I let him leave with his new toy. Will try to find a photo of the M700 in 6x47 I sold him, as it has a stock he wanted to duplicate for the V-22.
Nice bunch of rifles!

Did you bed that stock?
EddieE - I had him take the rifle home without bedding it. Told him to shoot it the way it was for as long as he wanted, and if he decided he wanted it bedded, I'd do it whenever. He's called a couple of times since then, and has been very pleased with the accuracy w/o bedding. I ordered the McM A5 with machined-in pillars, and as the V-22 is a M700 clone when it comes to the inlet, I guess the guys who've written & refined the inlet program have had plenty of time to 'get it right'. I bedded the Manners T4A on my V-22, but only after doing quite a bit of shooting with it. Can't say that it had any effect on the rifle's accuracy, though it probably did give me more confidence in the rifle's accuracy potential. I have yet to bed the Manners PRS1T on my newer Kukri, and am not seeing any difference in the accuracy relative to the first rifle. So why take the time & effort to bed? - other than the difference knowledge that you're shooting a bedded rifle might make in your confidence level - when going into a stock with the inlet as accurately done as McM & Manners stocks are, it's not really logical to expect such difference.
I like that rifle, how do you like that stock, it looks like it would be very handy.Here are shots 11-20. The first magazine was sighters. Pretty sure the two to the right were me. Eight of the ten shots measured .375 outside to outside. The entire group measured .562 out side to outside. I'm sure it will do better. One group may not mean much but it's off to a good start!

How does one chose a coating color for the barrel without seeing the colors on guns in person? The images on the screen can be off vs. in person.
Looks like you did a nice job, good colors.took my son to lowes and picked up some rattle-can spray paint.
he wanted (8 years old) what i took as urban winter camo...i think
pics look slightly "greener", actual is a touch more gray tone
started out:
black AX chassis
black vudoo kukri 16"
black atlas
black march 10-60 x x56 high master (prob the first high master ever to be spray painted)
took about 15 min in the garage

I'll also throw in my vote for the Huber 2-stage. I started with the Timney CE... and maybe I got a lemon, but it broke like a cooked carrot. I'm likely more sensitive to creep than some/most.What trigger is most common on these rifles? Two stage or single stage? I like my single stage trigger I have on my 22 now, but trying to determine which would be better for my needs. I don't compete, and most of my shooting is done from the bench.

Huber is nice and crisp. I had narrowed it down to Huber and Bix...but the Bix was untested in the Vudoo at that point.
Looks great! I would have a stroke painting that $$$$ combotook my son to lowes and picked up some rattle-can spray paint.

I have a bix going in mine but won’t get it for another 2 weeks, good ole Cali waiting period. JoyThanks. Was the timney 2 stage also?
Is the bix now tested in vudoo?
I was always the same way.Looks great! I would have a stroke painting that $$$$ combo
I was always the same way.
One day I said screw it...
Surprisingly my riches still work. Lol
Yes, CE was a 2-stage. I could feel the second stage moving before it broke. As 10ring1 stated, some are happy with it. Unknown if theirs doesn't creep (i.e., mine was a lemon), or if they don't mind. I find any creep unacceptable in a rifle. I have a 40yo Marlin 60 with a better trigger. Again, not throwing stones, but another data point. I changed to Huber, and haven't looked back.Thanks. Was the timney 2 stage also?
