Embracing New Technology in Precision Shooting: The MTAP (Meplat Trimming and Pointing) System by Fclassproducts

Writer: MacMac

Updated: Nov 25, 2024


Precision shooting has always been about pushing boundaries, and the new MTAP (Meplat Trimming and Pointing) System by Fclassproducts represents a major leap forward. As shooters, we know that every little detail counts—whether you're in rimfire competitions, PRS, sniper matches, or even hunting. With the MTAP system, there’s real excitement in the air. Based on the tried-and-true technology from the IDOD Case Turner and The AUTODOD Case Neck Turner, this is something new, refined, and designed to take precision to the next level.


I've seen the videos, and the theory behind this product looks sound. The MTAP’s ability to refine the bullet meplat for greater aerodynamic efficiency is promising, and it could be a game-changer for anyone serious about accuracy. That said, like any new product, there’s always an element of risk. But in the world of precision shooting, risk is often where innovation thrives. I am eager to see how it performs in the field and hear from shooters who put it to the test.


A Closer Look at the MTAP System


Let’s break down what’s under the hood:


  • Consistency in Trimming: What truly sets the MTAP system apart is the consistency it achieves during trimming. In the video demonstrations, the machine consistently showed a half-thousandth difference between bullets, an incredibly precise result. This level of accuracy is impressive and ensures that every bullet is trimmed to the same exacting standard. Such precision directly enhances the ballistic coefficient (BC), leading to more stable flight paths and tighter groupings.

  • High-Quality Bearings: These larger-than-usual Japanese bearings are built to last and provide the smoothness you need for precision work. This is a major upgrade over less robust systems on the market.

  • Dedicated Base Plate: The MTAP is already prepared for future automation. With the quarter-20 tapped holes, it's designed for future upgrades, making this a tool for the long haul.

  • Chip Collection System: Keep your workspace clean with the built-in chip box, or let the chips fly—it’s flexible to fit your workflow. This system allows you to run it horiztonal or vertical with its chip system.

  • All-Meter Measurement System: The MTAP system includes an all-meter measurement system, complete with an adjustable stand for precise measurements. This feature ensures that each cut is dialed in for maximum accuracy. The stand can be moved and adjusted to suit the user’s needs, offering a level of flexibility that helps shooters remain calm and focused during the trimming process.


What Comes with the MTAP?


With the purchase of the MTAP system, you get one bullet caliber setup of your choice from the following:


  • 25 Cal

  • 6mm

  • 6.5mm

  • 7mm

  • 30 Cal

  • 338 Cal


Additionally, the MTAP system comes with the all-meter measurement system and an adjustable stand, ensuring maximum accuracy and flexibility during the trimming process. This stand allows you to move and adjust the system as needed, adding a level of convenience and precision.


You can also choose between a 115V motor or a 230V motor, depending on your power setup, as part of the initial package.


Need more options? You can add another bullet caliber setup for $200, available as of November 15th, 2024.


Anticipation and Realism


I am eagerly awaiting the first reviews to roll in. While the MTAP builds on the legacy of precision from the IDOD Case Turner and The AUTODOD Case Neck Turner, it’s also exploring new territory. This blend of tried-and-true technology with innovative design makes it something special, and we’re optimistic it will meet the high standards of shooters across various disciplines.


At the same time, I recognize that no product is perfect right out of the gate. The shooting community’s feedback will be crucial, and we’re excited to hear how it performs in real-world conditions. I am also hoping to get the MTAP into my own shop for testing. In the world of precision shooting, where every detail matters, we’re watching closely to see if the MTAP becomes the go-to tool for serious shooters.


Conclusion


There’s no doubt that the MTAP (Meplat Trimming and Pointing) System has the potential to transform precision shooting across a variety of disciplines, from rimfire to PRS to hunting. I am thrilled to see how this product performs in the hands of shooters and look forward to getting one for our own testing. With innovation comes risk, but that’s part of the excitement. As we all strive to be the best, it’s products like the MTAP that keep pushing the envelope.
