RAW Rapid New RAW Mini (not Micro) Intro, hands-on, and 100y tunnel test

[Michael]

I’ve got a few vids to share from our Airforce/RAW factory tour. They let us test some new products pre-SHOT show!

Enjoy!

Same fine RAW rifle, just shorter barrel length. Those that thought the Raw was too long overall may like this 'Mini' option.

Same HM1000x receiver, but different: barrel, valving, reg setting, barrel porting.

To me this is an interesting size. Better than the real short 1. Do you have some velocity and fpe figures?

They talk about that in the new factory tour video. I think he said it was like 40-45fpe in .22 and 55ish in .25 (don't quote me).

At work and didn’t watch the video but any update on their benchrest parts for the HMX stocks?

Michael,
When did they say the Mini would be available to purchase.

That rifle is very nice. However what impresses me most is that awesome 100 yard tube that connects right up to the shipping container. What a great testing set-up.

My exact thoughts, wishing that I could replicate that setup, that would be sweet.

Reminds me of shooting in the tunnel at LD's ranch ...that sound is awesome!

Yes. I looked them up after seeing this post. About $1800 per 20 feet. That makes for a very expensive 100 yard range.

For a Manufacturer ... cost of doing business for maintaining great QC

I would have to have it with black pepper stock, is that possible? I should be more careful what I wish for!

If i was a manufacturer i would not hesitate to do the tube thing even as a home shooter i want to. But even a 12" tube is more than i would want to spend . and 12 " X100 yards ? Nope ! 24"X 30 yards ? still high $$$

 

[JoePolanco]

You guys are talking about 100yd "tube" testing so I assume you're looking to eliminate variables. I don't use a tube, just an indoor range....LOL
