Very nice. Always like seeing some different and interesting rigs. Speaking of which, I used to always enjoy seeing the various cool rifles posted by AJViera. Haven’t seen his posts in a year or two, is he still around?View attachment 456703

Never met aj out in meatspace. Liked looking at the rigs, too, because I'm a rifle junkie. Don't think he got banned, at least nobody said anything about it. If you like drooling on rifles, you need to start shooting some precision rifle matches. Or at least hitting some classes/practice days. It's a blast. Pun intended.Very nice.

Just for you, this is a Tikka (started life as a T3 tactical) in 308 with a krieger barrel. Sits in an xlr element chassis.Hell yes!

Gotta force myself back out to Peacemaker thus summer for some Long Range Challenges. I haven’t been since July 2022. Been hard finding time, plus it’s 2-1/2 hrs from home. Last one I shot there was way too many people and it was not much fun (other than the two guys that finished 1 & 2 shot in my squad - great guys and great shooters), that and it was unbelievably hot and humid. I've been wanting to attend some of the Frontier practice Days but that just seems like it would be even more crowded and hectic. I’ll definitely get out this summer sometime though, it’s too much fun not to.Never met aj out in meatspace. Liked looking at the rigs, too, because I'm a rifle junkie.

If you think that's busy, you should see a pro series prs match. That's packed. I actually like shooting in the cold better. Usually fewer people and my gun stays cooler.Gotta force myself back out to Peacemaker thus summer for some Long Range Challenges. I haven’t been since July 2022.

Custom rifle Kool aid is the best Kool aid.Those are sexy post you guys made .... I gotta stop looking at it for a good reason
OK, now I have morning wood.
Sweet. My buddy got one of the first production units after we both shot the pre production one. I already have a Nuke 2 and a few other actions so I will wait to get a CDG for a bit. Need to sell off some other stuff to make space in the locker and money in the budget.It’s a smooth action. Trigger hanger is brilliant. 2 stage Huber in this one @1.8lb total.
Serial #308 & it wears a PVA Osprey 26” 308 10T Proof Comp contour.
Pic was at Liberty Bell stage Major Land this past Oct. Didn’t hit the bell, but scarred the hell out of it with 9 shots. 1776 meters.
20moa rail + 6 Mil mount, 25 mil on dial & 10 mil hold to get there with 177SMK @ 27
4g64 - FYI if you have an older Zylo (pre 2021) it will require some machine work to fit the CDG.Sweet. My buddy got one of the first production units after we both shot the pre production one.

I am still on the fence about fixed vs pivot bolt.handle. my buddy went pivot. I tried a friend's archi when they hit and it was just different enough that I knew I'd have to go to archi actions across the board for it not to weird me out switching back and forth. So I never did.
I'd buy another xylo. Nuke 2 currently lives in either the xylo or a gen 1 whiskey 3, depending on configuration. For fun and if I shoot in a match, xylo with long barrels. If it's for other stuff, short barrels with can and the whiskey 3 folder.4g64 - FYI if you have an older Zylo (pre 2021) it will require some machine work to fit the CDG.
Hit me with a PM if needed for details.
I have a Archimedes in 6GT & it is the fastest action in the stable. The CDG Pivot has a much stiffer spring for the pivot. I haven’t felt it pivot yet. If anything it may provide a little cushion for the bolt stop if/when I get going fast on a stage.
I’d recommend going with the pivot option.
Gen2 Nuke 223 swithing back & forth to CDG doesn’t feel odd to me at all. They do both have the Huber’s in them.
Archimedes does feel different, but it also has a single stage TT Diamond.

How do you like the Zermatt vs the Defiance? Which Zermatt do you have?My other actions are currently Zermatt, defiance, and Tikka.
