That is very nice looking , pleasing to the eye. I have learned a lot from following your channel over the years Ray. Thank you for everything you do for the community and I appreciate you.
The Victrix Venus is a beast. I have the cheapest version, the Venus X, in 6.5 Creedmoore which, in Italy, Is a really good value for money and unironically cheaper than a Tikka. It is incredibly accurate and reliable but with less features compared to the more expensive versions. It is not a problem to me since I like the doctrine of high quality, low features for budget guns. The magazine is amazing even if it's not a standard AICS/AW which was a bit of a turn down in the beginning. The chassis has everything you need to get into positional shooting. I got into a problem with the bolt (bolt catch wouldn't work) so I contacted them through a gun shop and they arranged shipping to the factory repair shop free of charge and no questions asked. The rifle is still in repair so I don't know the results BUT for now I must say they seem to have amazing customer service too. This is a company that makes me proud to be an Italian shooter.
Rome makes an incredible handle for the bottom of this rifle (very much like the Cheytec has) I wish it was arca as well as picatinny but its an incredible handle. Def better than holding your rifle by the scope
I’m excited to see more Victrix content. Since your first Victrix video I watched more from other creators. Victrix isn’t super well known but I saw some superb precision!
Very interesting rifle, Ray. What's the advantage of such a long barrel for a rimfire? A complete powder burn is obtained between 18 to 20" for rimfires. I remember reading that in 22lr that the velocity decreases after 20". Are their champers cut to favor any specific brand of ammunition? (Lapua or Eley?) Took some goggling to find 11 Tenths contact info. No web sight.
Victrix-USA.com is their website. The longer barrels seem to be less finicky on ammo from what I have seen. Maybe the longer length stabilizes the bullet better. Just an assumption.
Hello Ray... A friend of mine asked me if I had heard of Victrix about 6 months ago... and I had not. It was during the health times that both you and I experienced. Honestly, I had completely forgotten about that... until seeing your video just now. I would love to share 30 minutes of time with you about them and a few desires ( match equipment ). I will preface that talk to save time by saying that I shoot a small competition club 35 minutes from my shop. We shoot 100/200yd. Benchrest, BR-50, Steel matches, Action Pistol, and also Rimfire matches. The things that I am potentially interested in are RF .22 actions or barreled actions ( single shots and repeaters ) to replace the six Suhl 150's of which two are repeaters... I made 20 mags with Ti bodies/ followers, and PVD coated them. I also made 12 billet mag bodies out of a special mix of 7T6 and PVD coated in our shop with a plastic follower and spherical spring... that were fantastic, so I sold 6 of them to make a Bakers dozen of AICS 11 round mags and 10 for my .50... lol. Respectfully, Seth
That's the tier this is at. You can get a whole Ruger RPR for $1200ish ADL, if that's what you can afford, and it'll tickle a mile just fine. The action, just the action on my rifle was twice that. To each their own.
😊 I always learn stuff from your videos😮 40 MOA of incline before the scope? It makes long range rimfire seem like an artillery exercise😂 especially with your super long barrel... .. I'd love to see the center fire model Of the next rifle..
Thank you very much for the Video, Ray! I‘ am very interested in buying the Venus PRO Small Bore. Can you please tell me where I can find the „MACHINE Services Inc. .22 Targets“? Thank you in advance and best regards from Germany
Realistically how many people, in the midst of Bidenomics, have that kind of disposable income plus the expenses that go along with travel to matches and time away from a job that generates that type of money. No doubt it’s nice, unique, and a few people can afford them but be honest,most can’t. What it does do is put more space between shooters who can and the majority who can’t.
$4k is steep but I guess if you’re into that niche market, then enjoy the living daylights out of this hobby 😊 kinda makes me want to buy a Ruger precision 22lr, (like that one video you posted not too long ago) put an arken scope and call it a day! 😅
I tried and they were going to let me review some. It was too difficult trying to get up with their regional sales guy. I did check out their new 14.5mm at Shot Show. It was incredible!
I am waiting for the next rifle that has more & better features than The Anschutz 1782-Centerfire PRS/NRL Precision Rifle, I am all but sure that isn't possible from any in the world,....it may only be copied at best....maybe.....
@@XRING As true as that likely is, the phrase has become comical. There were shot-show bingo-cards being passed around where "game changing" was one of the squares. I'm giving you sound advice. Use groundbreaking, cutting edge, innovative or (if you must) revolutionary. But never "game changing".
