Here it is, my new 9015.

Just picked it up this weekend.

Converted by Jon.

Congrats



...be interesting to know what & how you feel when shooting her...and with the associated scores it could reveal plenty.

NB: was the stock carbon tube scrapped by Jon ? interesting mod, but can see Jon's alu fore end work there. Mid section is original ? or yet, scrapped again ? difficult to make out..versus what's left of original stock which is obvious

Managed to get a bit of time on the zero range this weekend at the Euro's first impressions are stunning lock time and completely dead to shoot as you would expect.

Fit is spot on, need to spend time fine tuning the fit, there are so many adjustments you can make with this stock to really make the rifle fit you and not the other way round.

Jon spent some time with me going over the basic set up and set up the stabiliser.

Plan now is to spend the next couple of weekends getting her shot in and then our winter league starts.

Will update the thread with scores over the winter.

well...that sounds like Jon's sound philosophy..." tailor fit the thing to shooters requirements" - rather than contort like a yogi to fit the weapon

I can confirm what Graham says about the shot release, it is exactly the same as Matt's, you break the 2nd stage of the trigger with a 'click' and that's all you feel.

My ISP is good on lock time and dead release, but the 9015 is something else.

It will be interesting to see how this rifle and Nat's perform over the winter, as they are the same action, but quite different conversions.

Chubby will be collecting his soon, so there will be a few about for the winter leagues and hopefully the 2017 GP season.

Nats front block, valve block and acetal valve the same just the spring guide and spring different since the Precise onwards. This ones short stroked more than all the others running 2.19mm ultra light hammer stroke, may be too quick but can be slowed down 60% if required. Some of the things you can get away with are unreal and taught me bad habits since 1992 when perfected strokes at 1.4mm. To give some idea the FTP runs 14.2mm. Standard 8001, 8002, 9003, 9015 you will have to follow through with shots something I had to constantly try and adhere to when used a 9003 for 8 1/2 years.
Whole new stock one piece from solid retaining original rear cast off back and an adaptor to attach a butt pad in orange. Woodwork proper oil finished not a paint job, cheek adjuster reworked, pistol grip adjuster remade and the new palm adjuster designed last year that gains at least 25% more drop to pivot point length therefore a lot shorter and lighter.

What's stroke has Matt's rifle got Jon?

When I shot that I got exactly the same impression of a very fast very dead release.

From memory slept since then around 3.5mm but different valving setup.

Newer trigger blades with the 4 ball bearings do trip better as well.

BFTA Euro 2016 - Day 1

That's Nat.

She made the mistake of changing rifle and scope at the same time, and shot a 20something on day one.

On day two she went back to her EV2 and front focus Leup and shot a 40.

She's going to put her ff Leup on the 9015 for the winter league, I will be watching her scores with interest..... and Graham too.
