John is the perfect storm... A great engineer with the mind of a researcher, a great listener, creative, and someone who loves high performance and competing. He came at this game with a very strong materials and engineering background, and with good friends who were already making the best actions. You can see the results. Best wishes to John and thanks for all your work.
Great interview, Bruce at BAT gave me a tour a few years ago, action building is awesome too watch. Thanks for finding these folks to share their experiences and knowledge.
If you want to get into competitive ELR, i’d just go with a straight 375 cheytac throated for solids. Don’t get caught up in the latest hype. Check with peterson when their next scheduled drop date is for 375 brass and buy a bunch up.
HEY ERIK, bring on "The Cinnabar" he's a smith who shoots, hunts with and repairs old Winchester guns. I think you'd like him. Maybe you could hunt with an open sight 1895 Winchester in 35 WCF or a 30-40 Krag???
Erik. I am holding off getting a silencer until you get your tuner silencer. You said you had a patent, when will those be a reality. I’ve have 3 tuner brakes now!! I love them. Loads way easier to tune then using just seating depth. I do use both but rely on tuners heavily.
Enjoyed this interview with John; very interesting. 👍🏼 John, if you read this, check out OK Archery compound bows from Germany. The best-crafted and most accurate compound bows in the world! Wish I could still shoot my compounds; alas, injuries have reduced me to pull the trigger on my rifles.
Not a lot of talk about Pierce. I have a Pierce Shadow action that in my opinion is better than my Bat Machine. I would highly recommend Pierce to anyone.
Just CNC Turn a straight wall case, and neck it down with dies. It wouldn't take much to make your own brass.... I have everything to do it, just in case ;)
Good show Eric, please make a video when you either test or buy a good air rifle with one or several of the Scopes you own and know it holds and shoots in the hole repeatedly on you real guns in comparison to a air gun of the same caliber: for example your real gun is a 6.5 mm compared to a 6.5 air rifle (with the pressure tank, of course) using the same scope over various 100 meters and beyond. I think that video will be a huge booster to the air gun community, yet it may be bad if you shot too far in comparison while the communist agencies are watching. Also, you must think about the impact it will have on your tuner business in doing such a video. Food for thought yet very interesting...

I have an Eliseo UMR in house on loan from a friend. It uses a Pierce action and it's incredible. What an amazing piece of machining art.
John built an action for me in 2015, which I used to win the light gun class in 2022 Florida Long range IBS championship.

Been waiting for this one for a while. Thanks
Papa John... the best in the business. Big heart . Great mind.
A man after my own heart. Archery to me is even more of a challenge but more relaxing
Great information in all of these!
Great interview
Another quality interview 👍

Great Interviewee. I would have liked to hear everything he started to say.

I had to retire to shooting lead out of a boom stick due to injuries from my 30+ yrs of shooting archery.
choot lefty.
Keep it up
What video did you talking about Rice in the Tumblr
Not a lot of talk about Pierce. I have a Pierce Shadow action that in my opinion is better than my Bat Machine. I would highly recommend Pierce to anyone.
Happy to hear that!
Was John thinking about Barrett for the popular 50cal repeater?
Pierce means fire trucks to me since I'm in that part of Wisconsin
Pierce, barrett and McMillan.
HEY ERIK- Bring on Nathan Foster. Terminal Ballistics Research of New Zealand
Or
Rogee of New Zealand...
If you would like to know more about air rifles You can speak to Mat Dubber. He is a genius on air rifles.
I wonder if we’re related. My family us from Kentucky, Iowa, Indiana, and Nebraska
i just got a ec v2 for my 308 ftr rifle

We are working on doing out own cartridges soon .
Please talk to to Larry PRacine of New Hampshire
You need to interview Randy Selby. "The real gunsmith" on CZcams. That old boy is freakin spicy, and that interview would be absolutely amazing.
Which Keith?
Any ideas ? :-)
