Need info on this gun!!! Help if you can!

[ducks-and-bucks]

I have no experience here on these tube gun type rifles. What kind of action is this? How is it set up? Is it a standard barrel that will thread into the action or is it a slip in like an AR barrel??? Accuracy?? Accuracy vs a custom built action in a manners stock set up?? I have a wild hair to build one of these, and half a hair to build my 338 Lapua like this, I'm undecided though. Pro's/Cons?

Well here I go with what I can figure out... Like a Defiance machine Mutant action and a Eliseo Chassis system... The barrel does screw in with threads.. Answered my own questions there... but how is this in accuracy? Still way better than an AR set up I'm guessing...?

Check out CheyTac and their rifle set ups.

Being a bolt action, that rifle would definitely be more accurate than an AR. Less moving parts means more accuracy. Also, theoretically slightly longer range since all of the propellant is pushing the round instead of being partially diverted to work the action.

just looks like a tube gun to me.

Don't count on that, I seen a guy one time place 3rd in a benchrest match that was shooting basically a stock Bushmaster(custom barrel and worked trigger) and 3 of the guys at that match have been doing it 20+ years and were top notch winners..one of them was Tony Boyd.

PM Cajun Blake, he'll know.

PM Cajun Blake, he'll know.

No he won't he will say the same thing I've said and a couple other guys.

There is no best. This post is like asking what is the best bow? Or Ford verses Chevy verse GMC verses Dodge ect. ect ect.

Learn to read wind flags an if you are going to waste money on truing a Rem. action buy the cheapest barrel you can find on sale.

And to the OP did you shoot that group using wind flags? If you didn't it was pure luck.. If you did great shooting.

I think Blake will back me up and he doesn't really know me but I know he knows this game as well as I do.

I will bet a years salary that no one on this board can shoot an average .250 group at 100 yards for 5 targets. And I almost be willing to bet most if not all could not do 1/2" groups average for 5 targets. And especially with a factory rifle. I've shot with some of the best in the world and they can't do this consistently, and the ones that can are in the hall of fame.

To the OP if you aren't using wind flags you'll never be able to tell the difference in barrels, and even then like I said before you would have to be a true expert....Just buy what makes you feel good.

Where's Blake? !!!!!

I should add after reading my posts I don't mean to come off as arrogant or cocky I just know what am talking about(and at one time when thought I did I was taught differently)

All am trying to say if you aren't shooting over wind flags(and know how to read them) you can't make any assessment about your equipment or loads/tune at all.

Just depends on how **** you are about real accuracy.

MikeW hit it on the head for the shooting aspect. About the tube gun and how well they work google I believe it is David Tubes and looks at some of his tube guns that are great guns. Also 6mmBR.com use to have some great write ups in there pages about the tube gun. I have had plenty of guns that will shoot .250 all day long until a person gets involved that is the element that messes up not the weapon platform.

It's a tube gun it has a chasy and a floating tune kind of like a ar
