    POTD: The IPSC Rifle World Shoot 2024 Boomstick

    Are you looking to shoot the IPSC Rifle World Shoot 2024? Or just need some inspiration for your next build? In this Photo Of The Day, you will find a suggestion of ingredients and parts to use. The competition is most likely to be hosted by Finland, in northern Finland in fact.

    Previous IPSC Rifle World Shoots have been in Russia (Nr 1) and Sweden (Nr 2), which TFB has covered in these articles: Rifle World Shoot Russia 2017 – TFB wins Bronze and Rifle World Shoot 2019 Sweden – Part I.

    Here’s Mikael “St.Michael” Schelén‘s parts list if you want to make your own build:

    New boomstick!!! This will be my go to rifle for next season and the coming World Shoot.
    I put this one together using:
    @ironcityrifle reciever, handguard, grip and BCG.
    @proofresearch 16” carbon fiber wrapped barrel (.223 wylde, 1:8 twist, intermediate gas length).
    – @unrivaled_technologies UB-556 compensator and 2-stage dead blow competition buffer.
    @slrrifleworks Sentry 7 adjustable gas block.
    @smokecomposites carbon fiber buffertube
    @uronenprecision Modular trigger, charging handle and safety selector.
    @spuhr SP-4022C ISMS that is prepped for the new @kahles.sportshooting K18i-2.
    This rifle is significally lighter than my previous one and the well tuned gas system cycles faster while still keeping the rifle super flat with the Unrivaled compensator and progressive buffer.
    I will be using @hornadymfg 52gr Match ammunition on most most distances and use Hornady Superperformance 75gr on longer distances and heavy steel.(For that extra oumph)
    The rifle is coated with @cerakote Elite by @lexcoating
    Now all that is left is the Kahles K18i-2 and a cheek riser for the minimalist stock… and we are good to go!!!

    “Unrivaled compensator and progressive buffer.”

    What do you think of the build? Perfect, or are the things you’d change?
