V22 Vudoo 22LR

These finally showed up last week.

https://i1004.photobucket.com/albums...psht3s73py.jpg

I put a Trigger Tech Diamond trigger on two of them & a Timney Calvin Elite on the other two

I put one of the 22" ones in a XLR Carbon Chassis & three into a Boyds Thumb hole stock I got off here :)

Shot them on Saturday morning with various SK ammo I have, they all preferred a different one, definitely not some Tenex I have :ORLY:

They all shot so well, I was impressed, so decided to use the XLR in a 22 Benchrest fun match this arvo

Looks really out of place around the various Annies, Feinwerkbau, Walthers etc :cool:

Showed them all up too :thumbsup:

Looking forward to getting it inside with a tuner on to see what it will really do :)

Here are the first groups they shot, all quick 10 shot, except two 5 shot groups with Tenex, in good conditions, little wind, no flags 50 metres

The group on the right hand side was with the ammo it shot the best.

When you are shooting the group with a 42-48 power scope you can easily see how it is forming before the odd shot or three goes astray due to wind/ammo etc :)

Some were stunning to be fair until they flew to bits to a greater or lesser degree :(

Nice!

So is the Vudoo a Rem 700 pattern?

This is interesting... More details, please - you're killing me!

Yes straight drop in to a Rem 700 SA, has a thicker, shorter recoil lug.

Standard Rem 700 trigger arrangement, no bolt release on trigger

Needs an AICS type bottom metal

They look mean, do they make them in stainless steel?

Yes they will, you will see on Thursday need a suppressor for one of them :)

They change your perception of 22lr accuracy at distance - im shooting groups at 100 that I would be stoked with previously at 50yards. With good ammo to be fair.

Ammo & wind are critical :)

Are you cleaning/shooting fouling shots with the ammo between shooting the different ammo types ?
During my rimfire benchrest days I was advised and actually saw it with my own eyes that different bullet lubes needed to coat the bore before consistency and true results could be expected.

Ive not heard of these rifles before and they look like the business , but its been awhile since the rimfire obsession had hold of me :)

The groups here were shot back to back, just time to load the magazine between groups, no cleaning, still haven't.

I have seen what you talk about but not with these yet, the Tenex certainly didn't want to shoot, at all.

They make a lefty ?!!!

Not a cheap rifle though.

Yes they do & you are correct they aren't a cheap rifle, they are a similar cost to a custom centrefire as they share the same components & quality.

Definitely shows that what one prefers another doesn't necessarily like. Mine shot best with Tenex at 50m. At 100m I chronied all the rounds I shot, a batch of Eley Rifle Match stood out with extremely low ES and SD and also shot well so that's what I'm running with now.

They are an awesome piece of kit, it's by far my most shot rifle and also the most fun [emoji106]

Shot my two 22" ones inside today, one in the Boyds thumb hole & the other in the XLR carbon folder.

I don't have pictures at the moment & there is 10 different types of ammo with two+ 5 shot groups with each on them, a little messy, so you will just have to trust me when I say

OMG these things can shoot :cool:

My Annies are going to get bored sitting in the safe, a couple of them will probably end up in someone elses :ORLY:

Did you run into any issues with scope clearance?
I was very surprised to learn they have a 90 degree bolt lift.

What magazines exist for these? Only ones I've seen are the 10shot AI pattern.

They are a Rem SA drop in, I haven't noticed any issues with scope clearance.

They have their own 10 shot magazines

They are to start making 5 shot magazines shortly.

First shots with mine a few minutes ago, dirty old CCI Standard. Pretty good at 50m but not at Greg’s level yet. I’ll work my way through some match ammo variety’s and I’m sure it will only get better. I’ve zero’d at 25 and got StrelokPro giving me the ups. Great that it has most of the 22 brands in it.

At least I wasn't the only one my partner bet this time :thumbsup:

Part one of a three part international 22LR benchrest competition, looking pretty good so far :)

Yep :)

What makes it even better is my partner hasn't shot 25m inside since this time last year and we were shooting the same rifle :)

I will shoot my one today, 50m outside, then at least I will have a feeble excuse when she beats me again :thumbsup:

The results are in, a Vudoo didn't win, but to be fair we didn't expect it to either :)

I got beaten by my partner again :) but I was only one of 25 :cool:

Extremely proud of how well she shot :)

Very nice Mrs Kiwi Greg !

Saw the Vudoo you sold to the Wairarapa farmer today. We are doing rimfire PRS style matches every month now.

Bloody hell, nice bit of kit :thumbsup:

My Vudoo was on form again in the weekend :cool:

If you are doing PRS style matches that often, I might to keen to jump a bird and get up you way for a match every now and again.

At the moment it is pretty much club shoots. We are talking about running a larger comp, if that happens I will let you know.

Another 1st & 3rd again today shooting group at 100m

Pretty bloody challenging to be fair given the amount of wind today, moa for five shots was a reasonable group :)
