[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1459342, member: 10291"] I am very happy with the MPA Lite Chassis! The rifle with March 2.5x25x52 and Evolution bipod comes in a bit over 12 pounds, same as the factory stock/accessories weight. I swapped the factory trigger bar for a Timney set at 1.5#. It feeds perfectly with a 5 shot Accurate Mag. I haven’t replaced the barrel yet with an identically sized Criterion(Light Varmint). The OEM barrel continues to produce consistent sub .5MOA performance out at 1000 yards. I only have about 500 rounds through it so far. No throat wear, and it looked fine when I bore scoped it. I get about the same accuracy as the finicky OEM stock but have much greater confidence with 65# of torque on the action screws to the very solid MPA chassis. It’s all about personal preference, but I really prefer the ergonomics of the chassis for long range work, and am planning to give it a try this coming hunting season. Shown with the compact March scope and Evolution Bipod. Some 200 yard range pics.... 5 shots, bench to prone....no POI change. [ATTACH]101341[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]101342[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
