XLR Element Chassis - Thoughts

[Deltagunner00]

Really enjoying this chassis so far. Took an older barreled action that I used to shoot F Class comps with and put it in this chassis. This is a 308 Savage action with a 24" Criterion barrel! It used to live it's life in a heavy stock for those competitions, which I much enjoyed, but it is just cool to see it setup like this now...to me anyway. Looking forward to killing some coyotes with it this winter. Just wanted to share my thoughts on it thus far, as I think it's a great chassis, at it's price point.

I have two of two of them.
Absolutely no complaints nor any real wanting to replace them.

Have the 3.0 Mg and ordered a 4.0 Mg. Big fan of XLR.

I have a Gen 1 and 2 Gen 3. Great chassis for the money.

Planning to get the 4.0 Mag in the future for my Savage 308 when I can save enough money.
Wanted to pull the trigger when they were on sale but just could not justify it yet.

I really enjoyed my time with one.

How would one of these work for a youth hunting rifle? Thinking of the Magnesium with the shorter tube to make it a shorter LOP primarily for my 9yo.

I imagine it would be just fine. It’s got the ar grip so it’s not the closest reach to the trigger but plenty of kids use ars alright.

The LOP goes way down. It’s a great setup for growing kids

My 3.0 Mg, folder, 24" Bartlein cf barrel, Terminus Apollo Lite Ti, Arca rail, ZC420, Zeiss rings is 10 lbs 5 oz. Not exactly featherweight.

I was thinking about throwing my 16" 300 Blackout into it.

@jbuck88 The short buffer tube in the TR-2 Buttstock is a great way to get the length of pull even shorter than the standard 12" which is the shortest it will go with our contoured buffer tube. The adjustability and our different options allow for 99% of people to have the proper LOP and cheek weld!
