PROOF Prefit Sig Cross 2 - barrel test part two

Here's part two of the proof prefit barrel on sig cross bolt action rifle. Took the rifle out to the shooting range and tested various matchgrade ammunitions as well as varmint loads to see which one performed the best through the new 20" carbon fiber proof prefit for the Sig Cross. Also ran it out to realistic long distance hunting ranges for varmints. Here's the link to part one - • PROOF Prefit Sig Cross...

Thank you for the video. Enjoyed your wind anylysis. Interesting.
I’ve been thinking about a proof for my Cross. We appreciate your expertise and hard work producing your vids.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

you're welcome. Greatly appreciate this comment!

I over came the same problem with a bag rider buy purchasing a piece of aluminum channel 3/4 x 1/2 at Home Depot. I epoxied it to the bag rider very carefully to keep straight , problem solved. I have the same rear bag . Added nothing for weight and I made it slightly longer . That’s for what you share with us

[@brucegillespie654]

Dam out correct! Should be Thanks for all you share

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Thanks for the comment and for watching.

Get you some Thorro clean down that barrel after all shooting, my proof barrel went up 75-80 after 150 rounds and a good cleaning groups tightened up slightly

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

cool, thanks.

Thank you sir.

[@2A_Crypto]

Nicely done Sir.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Thank you kindly

[@fattigla]

Are high SDs and ES's maybe because it is a fresh barrel?

[@aaron.from.winchester6744]

Yes. This 👆

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

yes it could be that. I'll test again after the barrel breaks in.

[@PFNasz]

Great video, thank you.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

You bet!

[@Roosta767]

Nice work sir! I am thinking of doing the same on my 308 Cross Trax. I didn’t realize how easy it is to swap barrels. Thx

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

No problem 👍

[@PassionforRifles]

Nice shooting, those Proof carbonfiber wrapped barrels are fast🔥🔥🔥

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Thanks. Yeah no complaints here.

I can't remember in the original video, what was the factory barrel group sizes? This Proof can do .5moa obviously.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

I didn’t shoot any groups in the first video, but the factory barrel was usually 3/4” - 1” groups at 100Y.

[@husqvarna3726]

Ive heard mixed reviews about carbon barrels. Ive been thinking of getting a straight jacket armory proof barrel for my Cross but im concerned it wont be as consistent as a steel barrel. I want it to be both a hunting rifle and a fun gun. I'd be curious to see how your groups stay consistent over the course of 10 or 20 rounds, and how it responds to being shot while decently warm.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

I hear you. On that note, no barrel performs well when overheated.

[@Blanch1792]

The SD and ES for the 140gr. ELD Match is about what I got a few months ago out of my Bartlein barrel and using the Garmin chrono. It was the 2nd group ever out of the new barrel but I got an SD of 13.9 and ES of 42.

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

I expect better than that, don’t you?

[@Blanch1792]

Absolutely. I've heard from multiple people that Hornady's ammo has been a bit less consistent since covid

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

@@Blanch1792 same

[@robertwaldroup6757]

I had the same results with there 223 and there 6.5 prc ammo but just the Match ammo some of there other like the ELD-X I got good results from.

[@trevorhawkins8757]

ELD Match has honestly been shit for the last few years now. My last lot of 147’s had an ES of 75 and SD of 28. I can buy S&B for half the cost and get twice as good ES/SD’s.

[@SAUM76]

I don't like the 147s either. Don't have good luck at 1000 with them

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Yeah I've been hearing mixed reviews lately. Unfortunate, because they used to be excellent.

[@michaelficarro2591]

I have that same spotting scope, what phone mount are you using??

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Here you go. It's not perfect, but it's one of the easier adapters I've found. www.apexellens.com/product/f002-universal-smartphone-adapter/

The horizontal stringing on the Express looks like trigger press dude, no offense....
