Create a channel Learn moreSour grapes is right. MHSA had some when I called the other day. Altus may or may not be out. VGW may have some lefties in stock from what I sounded like when I called them earlier today.
They may not have had that barreled action in stock. Couldn’t tell ya man lolHmm, interesting....i put my order in for an 20" MTU LH and it was 14 weeks out...

the difference is a 25y-200y stage is like going from 100-1000Thanks for doing this looking forward to reading it.
How do you decide to dial or holdover in competitions. Is it different in a NRL22 match vs a PRS Centerfire match?

I have tried dialing first distance or sometimes middle and holding but I’m still new to this so interested to see what an expert says.That's my achieles heel. I started off with NRL22 and PRS just using hold overs, no dialing - it was going great.
I then started to practice dialing and it seems i get sloppy and flustered by navigating the elevation and parallax turrets sometimes. So need to work one that but I feel it's more precise.
One thing I haven't tried is when you know the COF distances, dial in first distance and hold over other targets.

General rule of thumb for deciding on dial vs hold
Always dial unless:
A: cof mandates holdover
B: time doesn’t allow for it
B is 90% based on the individual shooter. It’s a total sum of the time given + targets/shots + shooter efficiency (how fast they can build positions and how efficient they are at dialing). The other 10% is when the cof doesn’t allow even the most efficient enough time.
Altus is getting a shipment of voodoo barreled actions around Jan.15. I just snagged the last 22 inch mtu that is coming in but they may have some 20 inch not yet spoken forI’ve been looking to move from my T1x to a Vudoo for some time. Seems I’m always late to the for sale ads here as well as Altus and other vendors. My plan was a 20” but see Mile High has a 16.5”. I’m seriously considering going with that. Purpose of the rifle is a trainer to my center fire rifle and to compete in a few NRL matches. Any down side to the 16.5”? I figure balance would be one but plan to weight the forend.
If anyone has a pic of a 16.5 in a manners stock, could you post it? I am somewhat concerned with aesthetics as well. Thx

not sure a PRS1 would be any betterVery nice rifle @littlepod Appreciate you sharing! That definitely helps. So PRS1 would probably be best. 18” looks to be the smallest that still maintains good aesthetics. Decisions..... decisions.....
Yes I preordered and paid for it this morning.Thanks. Yea I called them earlier and they were out. They had a 18” I was going to grab over the weekend but someone bought it in person.
So they pre sold it to you? Didn’t offer me that option.

patiently waiting for A419 to do the steel version of their weighted arca or even just a steel regular arcalokIf you do a PRS1, have Manners do a custom *steel* weighted arca rail. It'll balance it out. The default one is aluminum with brass weights, but Manners can do a custom steel one. I still think a 20-22" MTU is the way to go. Barrels all cost the same, save money on weights.
That's good to hear because that is the stock I want and have a 20" MTU on the way (March).Manners TCS is too back heavy, even with all the weights up front on the arca rail. You would need to get a 20" MTU to be able to get it to work perfect.
Running all 7 weights in their rail.

Did all 7 weights come with the TCS or did you have to get separate?
it'll look just fine like pretty much all cerekote riflesWell I’ve found a new 20” MTU barreled action. However, it’s cerakoted in FDE. Haven’t found many of pics of the VGWs FDE online, the board here or social media. I’m a Manners guys and not really sure how it would look with Manners color options.

Started my background check yesterday for my new vudoo. That 20” MTU barrel is stout lol should have it early next week.
Finally took my two new Vudoos (righty and lefty) to sight in the Athlon Cronuses I put on them. It is so unbelievable to literally see the bullets go exactly right where you are aiming through the same hole as the shot before over and over.

Ugh I want! If some one takes my AI chassis this will be my exact setup but with a 20” MTU barrel
Tomorrow? I don't think I could wait that long. You have plenty of daylight left.View attachment 7511426
Finally unwrapped and put together my Christmas gift this morning. Gonna hit the range tomorrow.
Good morning and Merry Xmas! I hope all is well in your hood, and hopefully you get some trigger time in this holiday season!
After selling some watches and other crap laying around my house on ebay, I've decided what better investment to return my funds other than a vudoo? I think I'm going to call them up when they return from the Holiday to get the ball rolling, since it looks like it's going to be 3-4 months.
I have a few questions I'm hoping maybe some of you can answer. I currently have a RimX in a XLR chassis. Im thinking of going Foundation Gensis on the vudoo. I'd like to swap the BA's back and forth if I want, but the Vudoo appears to have a straight pull on the bolt, where the RimX is swept back a bit. Will I have to have special in letting done on the Foundation? Can someone who owns one chime in?
My RimX build has a 24" M24 Bartlien. Would a 20" MTU be comparable weight wise? Would they do a 22" MTU?
Last but not least, I'm wondering if anyone has done a bronze/copper BA on a dark distressed Genesis. If so, could I see a pic? All I could find online was black and stainless in those stocks.
Thanks for any and all input!
I know that Foundation inlets for Vudoo and RimX... I'm just wondering if I can get a happy medium or if I'm stuck inletting it for one or the otherI have a Vudoo in a Genesis that has a 700 inlet. The bolt will hit the stock, slightly, right at the end of the close. It’s not enough to prevent it from firing, but it will mark the stock.
