Just how strong is the VC action? Do they come "off-face"?
I really like the look of the VC and on the web page if says the actions able to withstand 5700 bar which is 570Mpa.....Strong yes but I guess I'd have expected more?

5700 bar is equal to 82650 psi, compare that with other mfg's.
I have a customer that has put over 4,000 rounds through his V-C sxs rifle and it shows no signs of wear, at this rate the rifling in the barrels will wear out before it comes off face. He also used this gun for several years to win the Vintigers SXS Rifle shoot.
The V-C has 6 lugs, and a locking bolt that is 1/4" thick and 1" long.
