Brux two groove?

[snod85]

Newish to Rimfire but love my Zermatt TL3s so I had Mike Manzella do a build using a RimX action.

Mike was surprised that the Brux barrel was two groove. Mike said it took a little more care to get everything lined up properly but that it went fine.

How unusual is a two groove barrel in rimfire? Never knew such a thing existed. Any limitations or quirks to keep in mind with a two groove barrel?

Will be fun to experiment with either way.

Be interesting to see how it shoots for you.
Benchmark 2 groove Rimfire barrels are somewhat common. I seen a guy shooting one at a recent match. I think it shot very well for him.

Where’d you buy the barrel?

Ordered direct from Brux. Over a year ago. Shipped to Manzella fairly quick ( a few months?) The wait was on rimx bolts issue. I think i
I ordered from their website. I also had a phone conversation with them somewhere as well.

Note, I didn’t know enough to ask about groove number, just assumed it was a four groove. Also during the phone conversation he mentioned they were just about to start a rimfire run which may be why the wait time was short.

Please keep us up on how it shoots.

My Anschutz 2018 prone gun is a Benchmark 2 groove. Love it.

The Benchmark two and three groove rimfire barrels have excellent reputations.
