Big Shout out to Terminus........An Mr. Russo!

[Longtine88]

Joel, thanks for making a great action. I just got around to playing with the action. I have 3 barrels made for it. 26" Proof 28 Nosler, 22" Proof 7mm SAUM and a 24" 6.5 PRC. I started this evening doing pressure test on N570 and 195's. Never pressured out, quit before I got there. Found the node just past 3120 fps. Worked on seating depths next 21 rounds.

Cold Bore Shots @ 200 yards:
0.000" off lands = 3122, 3119, 3125, 3123 0.45 moa
0.005" off lands = 3125, 3126, 3120, 3127 0.23 moa
0.007" off lands = 3118, 3127, 3124, 3124 0.37 moa
0.010" off lands = 3130, 3119, 3122, 3127 0.40 moa

So I took the barrel off and screwed it back on just to see how close it would return to the original point of impact and was very suprised to see that it was only 0.2" high and horizontal was on the mark. That's not too freaking shabby. Thanks Joel!!!

Incase your wondering who chambered the barrels they were all done by Straight Jacket Armory. Thanks to them also for their continuous accuracy!

Waiver: I do not receive any compensation from Terminus. But if they want to that's fine also. Lol.

Got mine on the way now! Apollo action with a Benchmark barrel in 6.5 PRC. Gonna have the same scope you show in your photo too.

Terminus makes a great action! I bought a Zeus to try out, I just need to make up my mind on who to have spin up a barrel for me. Straight Jacket does solid work so may have to go back to them!

Bugholes good too.

I also have a Kratos Lite with a 6.5 sherman max on it. Very sweet and super light.

You stole my words. Same here. Love it. Maybe that's what helps get me the velocity I'm getting... Super smooth.

What are you getting on you max? I've got the 156's at 3130fps on mine

Running the 123 AH at 3,495 MV with H1000... Just under pressure signs. Pretty sure it'd have some room to grow - maybe with n560 or something. Had H1000 and like the temp stability - and its running 1/2 MOA at this load/node.

Rifle prior to cerakoting.

Nice. I need to try the hammers in it. Got a 6.5 prc running them in. Easiest bullet in the world to tune

Thanks for the shout out Longtine88, really like hearing these success stories. Keep us posted on your progress.
The Zeus with the quick change barrel system has been engineered for reliability and repeatability. Looks like your seeing the same results that others have.
Here's a short video showing how repeatable it is at 1,000 yards.

We kinda have the same taste. Same colors in the stock lol.

Hey Joel, engineering wise is it possible to make like a Kratos lite a quick change barrel action? Just curious about shedding even more weight from a rifle.

 

[Joel Russo]

I've been asked to offer the Kratos and Kratos Lite with the switch barrel feature.
No promises, but I'm looking into it.
