Gunwerks Clymr Cycles Terribly

[John.b]

I bought a used Gunwerks Clymr last year and absolutely hate it.

I went from a Tikka t3x which action was so smooth to this which is jerky and binds. I sent a video to the store that I bought it from (which is a major Gunwerks dealer here in Canada), and was told that it is just because it is titanium and "titanium is just a grippier metal, and one of the major tradeoffs for weight", but I am not really confident in an accurate follow up shot if I need to take one now.

I reached out to Gunwerks too and sent them a video but they ignored me.

I feel like this explanation is like telling me that the Ferrari I just bought shifts like shit because it goes fast and that's just how it is.

Does anyone have this issue?

Here is a short clip of me cycling the bolt on it if anyone is interested.

Prime example of why I don’t care for titanium actions. I have a Gunwerks Magnus with steel action and it’s very smooth. My brother and dad have a few more of their rifles, no issues. Titanium is definitely sticky.

I don’t have TI experience directly.

First call gunwerks.

See if you can send the bolt or whole action to get dlc coated.

You can also try some of this lube.

I already called dibs at $75.

Sorry.

Is it the titanium bolt body binding on the action? or is it having feeding/extraction issues?

If its bolt binding, Id agree with the shop, if its feeding issues, a Gunwerks shouldn't have those.
