Is this the 2a? What did the assembly weigh?
I've been threatening to do this for several years, but I wasn't sure if I could make weight with one. You did a fantastic job on this!
The RAD 2A weighs 13oz
Here’s mine, used it at BSWN this year... shooting Berger 215’s free recoil.. On Eliseo stock for FTR, made weight with nightforce 12x42
This thing tracked perfect and straight. After recoil crosshair at top of target, just push foreword and wait for spotter.
Was surprised how well this worked, I have another Eliseo setup,, going to try 300 wsm shooting Berger 230’s.. open class!

This is perfect. I think you just pushed me over the edge.
What is your length of pull? Mind posting a picture of the other side?
LOP = 12.5"
I like the short LOP with right load port (right bolt) as you do not break position when reloading..
To compensate for the short LOP, the elisio stock allows the scope to be mounted forward (extreme), almost two inches, allowing for this better position. If you notice the rad system on my gun is mounted very shallow/almost inline with the tube chassis, maybe this helped with tracking and recoil management
The Rad system uses a hydraulic damper, mine was on the low setting.. no bounce, no hop during recoil, just a straight push back. I never noticed the shock of the recoil, so this thing must work.
