Back in September of 2022, the mad scientists at MDT built a bolt action rifle chambered in .308 Winchester that had a six-foot long barrel made by screwing together two barrels. As you can imagine, that’s not an easy task because you have to make sure that the lands and grooves of the two barrels align and form one continuous rifling in the bore. Not easy, but apparently not impossible. They then cut that barrel in one-inch increments firing rounds after cutting every section and recording the ballistic data. The goal was to find out the influence of the barrel length on the muzzle velocity. Well, MDT has recently  repeated the same experiment except now with a rimfire rifle chambered in .22LR and fitted with an almost four-foot barrel (46.5″) made by joining two 26″ barrels. Let’s take a look at the results of this experiment.

Introduced at SHOT Show 2022, the MDT  TIMBR Frontier bolt action rifle stocks are now available for purchase. This family of stocks is designed to combine the aesthetics and feel of laminate wood stocks with the precision, rigidity and modularity of aluminum chassis. Let’s take a closer look at the features and specs of new MDT TIMBR Frontier stocks.

The launch of a new sister brand for Modular Driven Technologies (MDT) has just been announced. MambaMag is intended to provide shooters with quality aftermarket magazines for factory rifles that increase their overall magazine capacity. This supposedly allows you to field higher round capacities on a traditional rifle without any need for drastic modifications to the platform. Their starting lineup should include magazine extension offerings for TIkka, Howa, Remington, and Lithgow rifles.

Modular Driven Technologies (MDT) is based in British Columbia and well-known among precision rifle shooters. Their XRS Chassis System was introduced earlier this year and the inlet options just keep on growing. The MDT XRS is now available for the rimfire CZ 457. 

Precision rifle shooters, this one is for you. British Columbia-based Modular Driven Technologies, or MDT for short, has grown into a popular brand since its founding in 2009. Their long-gun chassis systems and other sniper rifle components are loved by many users of Remington actions, Savage, Howa, and more. One of their hit products, covered by TFB at SHOT Show 2020, is the XRS Chassis System, with a $499.95 MSRP. Now with a June 30th press release, MDT has announced new inlet options for the XRS. The release reads:

Have a look at the Savage Elite Precision Rifle. Lots of great features like the adjustable Savage Accu-trigger, coated bolt and action, and of course the core competition chassis system from Modular Driven Technologies.

The Canadian company Modular Driven Technologies continues to push out new chassis systems for our pleasure.

Last year was the year of the 6mm BR (and its offspring; BRA, BRX, Dasher, etc) in both the PRS and NRL.  A survey conducted by Cal Zant with the Precision Rifle Blog showed 48% of shooters were using a BR in some form.  This is a swing that has been a few years in the making. Initially, when practical precision rifle shooting was becoming popular, .308 Winchester ruled the roost.  It was what military snipers had been using for decades, so how could you go wrong with that?  A few guys who understood external ballistics would venture out and shoot 7-08 Remington, .260 Remington, .243 Winchester and various wildcats in those bore sizes instead of the .308 because of their superior Ballistic Coefficient (BC) and reduced recoil.  As the sport progressed 6mm and 6.5mm bore sizes became the norm with Creedmoors and the x47 Lapua variants holding the lions share. Now for the same reasons 6mm and 6.5mm beat out the .308, the 6mm BR is coming into its own.

If you have never shot long range before and are entertaining joining a league or getting yourself more educated on the burgeoning sport, this is a great opportunity! Modular Driven Technologies (MDT), the world-class manufacturer of after-market stocks for competition rifles, is teaming up with QPro Defense to provide shooters with an extraordinary, educational experience.

TFB has never covered the CKYE-POD but it looks like a really nice bipod for Long Range and Practical Shooting.
