I think that the creedmoors are built by rockridge, I saw one the other day at the range and it seems well finished BUT they are made from drill rifle receivers just like the james river rifles and the gibbs, the one that I looked at had no upward pressure at the forend tip so I don't think it would shoot till it's fixed, my james river 03a4 was the same and required quite a bit of work to get it to shoot as the barrel was off to one side in the forend and the scope came loose, I now have two James rivers an 03A3 and A4 and they both shoot like laser beams as the criterion barrels are top stuff and both will shoot a minute of angle out to 400m, and I told the guy with the creedmoor/rock ridge how to fix the rifle and as the next sniper shoots coming up in a few weeks ill watch him shoot it and post the results
had a customer send me one to see if i could make it shoot...though it looked ok from 20 feet, taking it apart showed the amount of bad quality repro parts used,
though it had a Criterian barrel, it was fitted so badly in the repro stock it never would shoot better then 7 inch groups at 100 yards, thats after i swapped out the repro parts for G.I. parts sans the stock.
when the owner called and asked what they did to make it a {match grade} 1903A3..they didnt know...
repro parts were put back in, and the rifle was sent back....they did give him a refund...
so the one's that they sent to Australiawere not the only Dud's that needed work !!!! thanks for that information
i cant see them making anything special to send over seas..
iv seen some ads on over seas gun sales sites, with crazy prices for fair rifles...
when if they just looked here, and had Simpsons do the import. they could save alot of money, and get a nicer rifle that wasnt a recovered drill rifle.
