This is awesome! Would love to see it for the CVA Cascade. It’s so accurate but right now only Boyd’s makes a stock for it. I’ve had bad luck with Boyd’s.
I’m new here. I didn’t know about this, and I am in need of one. I am definitely interested and excited to see this soon.
Welcome Joshua!
Jim,
I may have missed this, but will there be an email or some type of notification to the plus members on the early release, I have a TIkka wideland vail that I am anxiously waiting to convert over to a chassis system. It is a very accurate rifle as is but I shoot a whole hell of lot better with a chassis style that I can fine tune to my shooting style, LOL .
We’ll announce it here and on the podcast.
Jim i want to build a half minute .308 with your chassis when its available. What barreled action should I be looking for? Tikka? Savage 110? Customish 700? Id like to keep the package minus scope and accessories between 1500 and 2k. Do you think its doable? I should also mentioned id prefer AICS magazines but not a deal killer.
Thanks Jim for the info
Tikka is the best choice for that budget
Jim,
Just wondering will the new chassis be using stock magazines or are they designed for a certain magazine in mind?
I am curious about the mag situation as well. Was an answer ever provided?
He said earlier that they were going to be ACiS mag system
thanks quick fishing, (john), i looked and looked but missed it.
Yep, AICS. We are evaluating companies to have recommendations on brand.
I vote Magpul acis mags, as that’s what I have in my current inventory
Sorry if you’ve already answered this Jim, but will the chassis be available in a left handed version?
Yes it will.
Yes it will
Hey Jim could we see a picture of the chassis on the 280ai build you have possible? Also is the chassis a combo of carbon fiber and magnesium like the hnt26 and fierce mountain reaper had a baby
Photo should be coming next week. We ran into issues with our nylon material this week getting an odd texture on it, so it delayed us a bit but all the parts from this last prototype are good to go so I’ll post a pic as soon as we figure that one out.
Does anyone know how much this will weigh? I haven’t used a chassis before but everything else I have gotten from backfire has been great. Willing to try this out if it is light enough as I have kind of been kicking the idea of getting rid of my Tikka T3x factory stock.. I know weight will vary by caliber.
