Better than that.
Easily one of the greatest days I've ever had afield. Am less than 2wks away from trying to comnnect similar dots for him and I imagine he'll be wanting to pinch the same rifle.
The video is pretty slick too,as he made a very good poke,with a 75gr Scirocco II at 3450fps muzzle velocity.
More stuff that a 1-14" Swift can't even begin to fathom...........

Does the guy in the last photo have a leather armguard on for a recurve? Or what exactly is that?
Awesome pic, that's for sure.

Pops dearly wanted to slam a Buck with his longbow,so was always attired to do just that. Good Bucks are fickle and those stars didn't align(mainly because I was spread thin,with others in the party),so I handed him my 22-250AI after glassing him up a rather nice specimen.
I didn't catch any hint of regret.........................

JUSTIN',
I suggest 2 Midol and 10cc's of Vagisil(in no particular order),to satiate your woe(s).
Perhaps consider holding your breath until you turn blue...then continue to talk copiously out your ass,about those things you know nothing about..................

Please copy/paste where I mentioned even in passing,that "I knew everything".
I'm at ease in discussion regarding things I am steeped in(this is squarely one of that great multitude) and have zero qualm scrolling past those things that are either Greek or of zero interest to me.
You whine well.......................

Just saw this thread.
First off, nice looking rifle.
Second, go back to the beginning and look at the progression. One man says he doesn't like the bolt handle and it is left go. Another says bummer-no more-about the twist and he is immediately called an azzhat.
Now tell me who started throwing ....
One thing the fire has taught me is that I know little about the the "workings" of the rifle/bullet marriage. If I have any questions, I think I will look North for answers.

Increased Estrogen levels,notoriously incite mood swings.
Just don't ask her for a pic of her Swift..............

Batt may have been quick on the azzhat, but the rifle was built for light weight bullets and I did look north on the twist straight to Karl himself, I have zero use for heavier bullets in the swift. (as it turned out I was spot on With the azzhat comment as this thread has shown).

I have no dog in this fight, BUT just like BMD stated, it's not your rifle palewhite, so move on!!!
+1 First off, that is one good looking rifle!!! Karl does awesome work. And, I personally like everything you had done with the build. If I was having Karl build me one, it would look like yours, to and including the barrel twist.

BDM,
Thats a great looking rig.
Im not a fan of the 220 Swift for the simple reason of the extra trimming they require.But performance wise,they kick azz.Of that,I have seen plenty first hand.I like a slow twisted high capacity 22 for soybean field work on woodchucks.
Alot more effective than coughing out big heavy for caliber turds that have more arc to the target.
I wouldn't not worrie about littlestick.
You did good.

....Alot more effective than coughing out big heavy for caliber turds that have more arc to the target.... That doesn't pass scrutiny. Compare a 50gr VMax at 4000 fps, to a 75gr AMax at 3400 fps. At 600 yards, the 50gr VMax has a max ord of 19.8" at 341 yards. At 600 yards, the 75gr AMax has a max ord of 19.4" at 326 yards. To 600 yards or so the trajectories are rather similar, but the 75 is already way ahead in defeating wind, and retaining energy. Past 600 yards, the 75 smokes the 50 like a cheap cigar.

You might also note that past about 300 yards, the 75 is going faster than the 50.
MV is a fleeting thing, but BC is forever.
