That should do fine! How does it feed? Have thought many times about getting a .223 bolt head, mags and barrel for my Origin.

Well, I don't know yet quite honestly Hondo, as I have a PF bolt face on the way from Zermatt.
The PF M70 feeds great and the McWalnut Origin feeds great from AICS mags with a PF bolt face. The CRF bolt face works fine if you run it fast, but the PF is a bit smoother feeding for whatever that's worth.

I like it - and if Shaen built it you already know it will be a shooter

Hondo,
I guess I should mention I have the CRF bolt face on the TL3 with the 20 practical bbl at the moment and it feeds great fwiw from AICS mags

Very nice. I'd like to have Shaen do a rifle for me.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

I like it!! Shaen redid a rifle that Ryan Kelsey "built" for me. Excellent communication and workmanship, but I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet.

The CRF bolt face works fine if you run it fast, but the PF is a bit smoother feeding for whatever that's worth. Thanks. I didn’t even realize Zermatt was providing push feed bolt heads. I’ll have to look into them. John

I think they ran into some feeding issues with .223AI specifically and the PF bolt face is the fix.

Very nice! Shaen does some great work… I have a few too many of his builds, if that’s even possible. And I’ve been pondering a 223 flavor
