    Tikka T3 Thread

    That's a great look with the barrel matching the length of the handguard!

    Tikka T3 Thread

    The Varmint Hunter looks way prettier than the Super Varmint! I love the look of the steep grip wood stock! I bet the wood won't be high grade, but still. https://www.tikka.fi/rifles/tikka-t3x/t3x-varmint-hunter

    Thinking about switching to 155 scenar

    So Lapua has discontinued the 155 gr Scenar in favor of the Scenar L with the same weight and BC. Is it reasonable to believe that a charge weight that works for the Scenar 155 gr will also work for the Scenar L? I've been shooting the old school Scenar 155 gr out of my 308 and I don't want to...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Awesome combination! If you could live without the folding feature, I suppose you could get an X-ray and a CTR Bravo, then switch out the parts and get an X-ray with a CTR magwell and a Bravo with an AICS magwell...

    Can I get a sanity check on my first time annealing?

    Yeah I did it in the home office as well. I'm surprised how easy the diplomacy went. She puts way too much trust in me. I'm not a much better marksman than I am a reloader, but I'll try to compare these torch-annealed cases to unannealed cases side by side with a cheap chronograph and some...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Hey I tried to find a comment on this but couldn't. How did you fit the ctr mag in that chassis?

    Can I get a sanity check on my first time annealing?

    Very good points. I find it very hard to see the color change or the glow when the case is in the flame, close to the nozzle. Do you have any issues with the precision of the heating when you keep rhe case that far out?

    Can I get a sanity check on my first time annealing?

    So this brass is .308 Winchester brass from a 400 pack of match ammo I got a couple of years ago. I can spare 10-20 pieces for the sake of science. I redid the annealing in a dark room. I used a smartphone timer and I found that if I remove the case after about 7-8 seconds, the neck will glow...

    Can I get a sanity check on my first time annealing?

    Thank you all for your input. I've actually watched that guide video and some of Cortinas videos before, but I figured I'd need some more time in the flame as I have a single torch. I was also waiting for something visual to happen with the brass, and I started to get a real colour shift at a...

    Can I get a sanity check on my first time annealing?

    So I'm trying annealing for the first time. I'm using a European brand of brass that is rumoured to have good consistency but rather stiff necks. After about 3 times reloading these cases I put them in a hex socket mounted to a handheld drill and held the shoulder of the case in front of a...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    It would really surprise me, as the 85 and A7 are three lug designs, whereas the Tikka is a two-lug design.

    I think I've sand blasted my K624i with my muzzle brake

    I'll give it a shot! It seems kind of weird to me that those particles would come on to the glass with enough force to cause these blemishes. With that said, it's not good to have your rifle throw sand and muck on your glass... While I agree that there is absolutely zero noticable detriment to...

    Why is my Bergara shooting this bad? 😬

    Ammo can definitely make that much difference, both with regards to the quality of the ammo and the suitability of the combination of your barrel and a certain kind of cartridge.

    I think I've sand blasted my K624i with my muzzle brake

    Yeah that's the reaction I had. Don't think it came like that from the factory. I have the vortex flip caps closed at all times except for when I'm actually behind the gun. I'll ask Kahles what they'd charge to switch out the lens. It really is not noticeable when you're not shining a light on it.

    I think I've sand blasted my K624i with my muzzle brake

    I really don't think these dots were there the last time I cleaned the scope. In addition to plainly visible blemishes, I'm sure this ordeal wasn't very healthy for the coatings and such on the surface of the lens. I can't imagine any other way for the dirt to get onto the lens than being...

    I think I've sand blasted my K624i with my muzzle brake

    A couple of days after getting back from the range last time I noticed that my scope objective lens had a lot of dirt and muck on it. I had covered it up with the flip up before sticking it in the bag. By the time I opened the lens cover again it had dried. Last range trip involved some prone...

    Shot out 6.5-284 Norma

    I thought the point of a set back was to get a new throat. Why wouldn't it be worth it in this case?
