Couldn’t be happier with it.
Functions perfectly, put 250 rds through it without a hiccup and it loves cheaper (SK Std)ammo.
Wind blowing 10-20mph today (obviously left to right) so tried to shoot between gusts. I’m thinking it will tighten up on a calmer day.

Plus the new to me Trailside.

Probably the biggest surprise of the day was that the 82 shot mini mags into 3/4” groups.

That Rim-X made my KYL rack boring at 50

Sounds like a great outing with some nice rimfires. Please tell me more about the Rim-X?

Kaleb,

Would you share the details on your RimX build. Barrel, stock, who plumbed it together?

Thx!

Yes sir

I ordered a #4 lilja and when it came in I stuck the action in the box and mailed it to Travis at TS customs. He done the barrel work. Chambered fitted flutted and cut/threaded at 18”. I used the middle of the road trigger tech(special I think?) Hawkins bottom metal and it’s bedded in a manners lrh stock. It came with a rail and I used swfa rings to hold the athlon 2-12. Shoots tiny groups at 100 with the 20gr Hornady ammo. Worth mentioning it’s hearing safe with a 30 caliber Harvestor evo suppressor. I’ll use it until the masks come in.

I haven’t really haven’t done a lot with it yet. I zeroed at 100 and have been shooting crows and other random targets of opportunity. I really like it though.

Saw a RimX receiver at Shilens a couple weeks ago. A very nice looking piece of equipment. It is controlled round feed and want feed single shot.
