Airlock Zero Gravity Nano (.224)

[Ajsomp]

Going on an 18” tikka 223. Saw it at my FFL yesterday, it’s pretty cool. Looking forward to getting my 6.5 soon as well.

Preferred has 18" 22 creed pipes in stock for just over $500...
almost want to buy one even though I don't have an action yet

Mine will go on either a 16 or 18" 22 Gaymoor.

16" is the way. 77's at 3082 fps.

I’m leaning 22 creed so I can get another bolt gun

For a 22 creed hunting rifle, should I go Nano for the size/weight, or 6.5 for the more volume/max suppression? Both seem appealing really and wanted opinions.

Between those two, I would go with the Nano. I own them both. The larger diameter of the 6.5 is a drawback, although it is an excellent option. Everything comes at a cost. But for a .224 caliber rifle, I prefer the Nano.

Q, due to diameter, I'm debating buying an OG6.5 for my new 20" 6.5 PRC. And then moving my 6.5 Airlock to a shorter barreled rifle. Currently, with a Trijicon Accupoint 4-16x50 in UM lows, the Airlock is visible around 6-7X.

I believe you have both. Can you tell me if the smaller diameter and slightly shorter length in front of the OG allows you clear views at lower scope powers? Or is the difference insignificant?

I don't have a great way to test this with my TBAC 7 because it uses a CB mount. I think the smaller diameter will be better.

I don’t see any difference between the Airlock 6.5 or the OG 6.5 using a 3-9x40 on my 22” Sauer 100 or my 18” CZ 527.

Mind posting pictures at low power through the scopes?

I can’t do that. Never works out for me. Maybe there is a phone adapter I need? Any recommendations?

I can say, at 3x I can see the merest shadow of the LS Wild covers on the bottom edge of the scope. Maybe 1-2mm of occlusion across the bottom quarter of the scope on the 22” barrel. Just peach fuzz on the 18” barrel.

I will also say, that both these rifles have relatively high mounts. I will run another comparison with my Tikka tonight.
