Oh yeah baby, I like!

I'd like to see the other side of the grip frame....i wonder if it is LCD? Hopefully that natty bottom-line has an on/off.

EDIT: Nah, it's LED still (check out http://www.dyeprecision.com) that's a shame. Aside from the milling, barrel, bottom-line, on/off bleed, feedneck it's not that differernt from the Proto Matrix. I wonder if there are any under the skin differences and what will be the difference in price.

It is a Matrix, it's not so much lubing the bolt, more finding the chickens and goats to sacrifice. Still if it goes like a Dm4 it will be awesome, and then some.

The milling reminds me of the illustrations or CG you sometimes see of muscle tissue beneath the skin. Probably going to be a bitch to clean but I like the look.

I guess we'll have to wait to see what the internals are upto, if the feedneck has been moved back then the bolt must have been re-worked even if just to reduce the length, so who knows what the perfomance will be like.

Funny to see some of the guys on pbn flinging poop because Dye didn't totally redesign it into a shocker or a completely new gun!

The other thing I really like about the Dye markers is the way they cover the eyes (ribbons, rubber covers etc) so they are virtually invisible from outside the body.

It looks awesome but if livestock sacrificing really is the order of the day for hassle free hunting I don't think I would risk getting one. Reliability has always factored highest for me...
