The MagnetoSpeed bayonet then attaches to the 5/8” rod after you remove the strap and use the bracket that came with the Gen III mount. Note: I did bed the picatinny rail to my rifle with extra epoxy, so that could be why it works better than I expected because my picatinny rail is close to parallel with my barrel. I was a little concerned with this at first, but this system does work perfectly with my McMillan Game Scout stock. The mount then utilizes a 5/8” rod that you can get in 12” sections (I purchased three 12” sections, but, for my 26” barrel, 24” is perfect with room to spare).īe aware of this discrepancy directly from MK Machining: “There is NO CANT adjustment of the bayonet, meaning if you have an angled forend or a rail that is not parallel with your barrel, this mount will not work for your rifle.” I already run a 4” picatinny rail on my rifle, so I’m able to mount both my Rugged Ridge Bipod and the Gen III mount at the same time.įrom there, you have a two-way adjustment of the mount with some rods and set screws. What makes this product so nice is it’s able to mount to a picatinny rail or an Arca Swiss mounting system. It didn’t take me long to know this was the ticket! I clicked around and tried to find out as much information as I could. That product was made by MK Machining and is their Gen III MagnetoSpeed Mount. I can’t remember how I came across this new device, but, one night, while scrolling through Instagram, I saw this product on my Discovery feed that looked like an add-on piece for a MagnetoSpeed chronograph that could remove that point of impact shift. However, after collecting all of that initial data, I wanted to continue to collect data in my long-range practice sessions to make sure my loads were still performing. During the initial stages, all I cared about was finding the perfect load and the MagnetoSpeed made that quick and easy. Regardless, I loved using the MagnetoSpeed V3 for initial load testing. What I wanted different out of a MagnetoSpeed So, all in all, this setup is perfect for testing load data, but there will be a time when you might want more. To me, that wasn’t an issue at all at first since I had plenty of time devoted on the weekends for testing my load recipes. On some thicker barrels, this isn’t an issue, but it is something worth mentioning. Sidenote: Attaching the MagnetoSpeed to your barrel can create a slight point of impact shift. The MagnetoSpeed chronograph design is so simple! Just attach the bayonet sensor to your barrel using the correct number of spacers, run the cord from the sensor to the reader and you’re good to go.
