I'm going stainless and bead blasted so clearance shouldn't be an issue.

yes I have one, I like the VR pic model which has the lug and pic rail built in. its a very stiff action. I think it helps alot. I would also look at a defiance, which you can get the same options on. they are the only other company that makes the lug and rail built in. surgeon last time I looked wasn't taking new orders.

The surgeon actions are a little too tacticool for my taste. The same reason I would not go with the built in picitinny rail on the BAT. Just don't care for the ascetics.

Hm...integrated rail = no screw heads, no parting line... What ascetics are you referring to (or do you want separate direct-mount rings/bases)? The integration is IMHO a great feature - no screws to loosen, no mounting issues, added rigidity and strength. I recently received a BAT M, single shot, with integrated rail and like it a lot.

Are you interested in the single shot or repeater version?

http://www.brunoshooters.com/category/actions_bat_model_vr.html - 5, all repeaters, all with 0 MOA integrated rail

https://bulletcentral.com/bat-actions/bat-machine-action-model-vr/ - 51, all repeaters, vast majority with 20 MOA integrated rail

BTW, if you are looking for a configuration different from the ones at those sources, going thru them (those two main distributors/resellers) will save you about 50% of the normal lead time going to BAT direct. It did for me.

I'm going with the repeater.

Just don't care at all for the look of the built in rail.
