I would contact KRG before you do anything. I've owned a couple of the Bravo's and played with a few more and I've never seen one where the action is loose when properly torqued.

I agree with the other posters. Clean the bolt well and just as general maintenance with the amount of rounds on it I'd replace the spring. I'd bet money that'll take care of your issue.

I used to use Strelok Pro but found that Hornady 4DOF was more accurate if set up right. AB is what I'd use if I wasn't a tightwad. 🤣

Christensen is known to have issues with their chambers especially in the magnums. I haven't heard of anyone not getting taken care of when they have issues though.

I had a Ridge in 300WM. I ended up replacing the stock with a KRG Bravo cause the accuracy wasn't there with the factory stock. I then tried working up a load with the 195gr eldm and the 225 eldm it wouldn't shoot either under MOA. That being said it shot 150 gr Hornady Whitetail around 1/4 moa...

I use a sonic cleaner to clean my baffles. I can tell you that you'd have to run if for a long time to get anywhere close to clean. I run mine 1 to 2 hours and still have to scrape and scrub a lot to get it clean.

How long did you wait to get it back? I can clean mine in about 20 minutes and other than some heat discoloration it looks brand new. Since I was going to be using mine with rimfire I didn't want to have to wait to get it cleaned.

I was told not to out anything on the threads that the o ring is enough to seal it and of its not the ring is damaged. Personally I found it was carbin build up in the threads and it was nothing to break it apart with the strap wrenches.

I've had mine get stuck were I can't get the second set of baffles off. A couple of strap wrenches and it was no issue. 9 times out of 10 I'd have chosen the banish again. I can tell you after shooting over 200 rounds of rimfire and centerfire mixed(mostly centerfire) it has a ton of build up...

If you have the ability you can cast some lee REAL bullets or round balls out of certified bismuth and it'll perform pretty close to real lead and still be legal for lead free states. A 1:48 twist might shoot round balls and bullets like the REAL bullet or something like the Hornady Great Plains...

I have used a hill people gear heavy recon kit bag with their binocular bucket for a few years now. I love the fact I can have my gun fully covered but still get it into action very fast. I can also carry all the gear I need to survive if I get separated from my backpack for some reason.

In my area it's pretty easy to find 6 creed. Most of the hard core predator hunters are switching to 22 creed so a box or two of ammo is usually on the shelf when I get into the store. As far as factory rifles I haven't really paid attention to availability. There is a custom gun shop near me...

First things first check your stock. It may be free floated when you aren't shooting but any kind of pressure on the stock such as loading a bipod and your barrel is in full contact with the stock. Every ruger American I've seen needs some stock work. I had a predator is 6.5 and once I switched...

I can get a used Burris XTR II 4-20x50 for $650, or the Steiner P4XI 4-16x56 for $800. Which one would you get out of the two? Not saying it's what I'm going with I'm just trying to narrow down my selection.

Does anyone have experience with the Burris XTR II? How's the low light visibility? The light transmission is the only thing I have to complain about on my Vortex.
