Bought this back in early spring to play with the 6mm ARC. It's 22" threaded heavy barrel, .750 muzzle. It's been to SharpShooterSupply for an action job ($175). It's the easiest cocking Axis you'll ever put hands on. Warne pic rail. It's accu-trigger, but it won't work correctly if it goes much below 3lbs, typical of an Axis. As it sits, the rifle weighs 7.6lbs. It shoots fine. Last 10 rd group of Hornady Black 105hpbt was just over an inch. The 103 ELDx and the 108 ELDM float between 1" and 1.5". I did have one particular lot of the Hornady black that hammered into just over half inch 10 shot groups but I couldn't find any more of that lot number. A handloader can probably make this rifle a hummer. Cheapest way to get into an ARC bolt rifle. $350 plus shipping or best offer. Make sure your FFL will accept from an individual and I will ONLY ship USPS Priority Mail Insured.

No the rifle will fire just fine. Sometimes after the round goes off, the center blade will lock up and won't let the trigger reset. Then you run the bolt and it resets fine and you fire the next round. It's just like it has a hitch during the reset. The trigger is at around 3.5lbs now, I actually had it at the range yesterday and it did it a few times. It's something to do with the Axis trigger group and how it attaches, I suppose. I debated buying a rifle basix trigger for it to see if that remedies it, but I've got other projects I'm tinkering with too.. It doesn't happen with 110 triggers but that's a completely different setup. Here's a couple of three shot groups from yesterday. I pulled the third shot on the group with two shots touching. It likes that particular lot of 108 grain eldm.
