They are going to retail for $850. Sounds very interesting.

Have these actually started appearing (which would be fantastic), or are they still on the drawing board (where they have been for a while)??

I thought I remembered a commitment that the action threads were going to be larger than 1.063x16...

.805" bolt and those threads seems like a waste.

Cutting larger threads is always an option but you can't make'em smaller for folks that want to use existing set-ups.

I do not want a bolt of the same material and RC hardness as the receiver. You will have instant galling.

With a 1.505 receiver O.D., and a tenon length of .850 - what existing setup is there?
