    .338 barrel length

    Yeah I run a 26 inch barrel and am around 2800 with 285s. I think you’re over thinking it.

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Nice. I have some 40vmax and 50vmax that I’m gonna tinker with.

    Is a 700 a 700?

    As mentioned above the trigger hanger is the problem but only requires some material removal if you are ok with modifying your new stock in a way that wont affect performance. Other wise if you want a drop in you will have to wait the wait

    That’s sweet. I built a 25-45 sharps on a gas platform. It sure is a fun little gun to shoot.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I don’t know the answer and won’t pretend like I do but I would think along the same lines as you. Maybe someone with more experience with the tikka can chime in.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I believe it would actually be cheaper to just put a prefit on it rather than buy a new bolt. Don’t quote me on this but I believe the new bolts are pretty high dollar but have not personally checked. I would talk to a couple smiths familiar with Tikkas and see if you would be able to swap bolts...

    They hooked me with the overstock inventory sale. Looking forward to getting my hands on one.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    They also have steel barrels in a competition contour that’s plenty heavy. Only downside to proof is you are limited to their caliber selection which is small. If you want better options on cartridge check patriot valley arms, preferred barrel blanks or other places that can do prefits.

    25 Creedmoor - Best of the Creeds?

    Yeah it’s not a SAAMI cartridge yet but seems the common thought is that it will be. I already built one and am just breaking it in. My specs are a few posts back.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Proof offers prefits for the Tikka as well as a few different companies. All depends on what kinda set up you want.

    25 Creedmoor - Best of the Creeds?

    I think it depends on a few different factors but I’ve seen quite a bit of different data points while researching the cartridge. Kinda hard when it was a “wildcat” and no SAAMI reamer specs to nail down general load data.

    25 Creedmoor - Best of the Creeds?

    Yes sir I’m running a 23 inch Brux 1:7 and the 135s are running just shy of 2700 for a random break in load. Barrel hasn’t sped up yet and has not been tested for pressure so I imagine I’ll be in the mid to upper 28s when it all said and done.

    Nice. Just ordered a barrel and will be cutting to 20 probably. so looks like 2900 will possibly be doable.
