    NOR23 ACTION

    I wonder if the forward mounting points would be used to secure a forearm to the action similar to an AR forearm.

    Tikka T3 A1 / Barrel - Yuck

    Check your action Mount screw torque, scope mount tightness, and alignment. I would then try some Federal Gold Medal 168 grain. If the gun still does not shoot have buddy try it. After all of this I would maybe think of a new barrel.

    Does anyone know who makes this red dot mount?

    I will have to check them out, have bought a few things from Valhalla and they were great to deal with.

    Terminus Zeus quick change action question?

    You can install a Non-QC barrel on a QC action. I suspect that some will want the full threads action for peace of mind and maybe a tighter barrel. That said in practical terms I doubt anyone will see the difference.mine is still waiting on a barrel but I expect it will be capable of better than...

    Unusual velocity changes.

    1600 rounds is about where I would expect the barrel to drop off. But the velocity numbers don’t normally go up at end of life. The other things like pressure and you saying you are at minimum loads. Have you checked you powder thrower against a different scale?

    Are these tooling marks unacceptable in a barrel ?

    Are these tooling marks unacceptable in a barrel ?

    Would that be a factory barrel? Those are ugly pictures. I don’t know what the rest of the barrel looks like, but you are not going to lap those out.

    22 Creedmoor advice

    I am not sure either. A heavy bullet still needs to move quick to achieve any semblance of accuracy or terminal performance. Yeah, maybe not low threes for a 90 grain, but probably 2800ish or so. Mine will be launching 85.5 Bergers between 3050 and 3200 ( I hope 😂). Everything I have seen says...

    Spotters Question about calling out Mills at different distances.

    Why would the spotter be 5 football fields away from the shooter? Shooter would not even be able to her the spotter. If the two are separated at a reasonable distance the difference in distances would be inconsequential.

    22 Creedmoor advice

    It was with the knowledge that barrels are expendable in the pursuit of high performance that I built my 22 Creedmoor with a Zeus QC action. This way I don’t have to remove the action from the stock to replace a barrel.

    Help choosing optics for 300BLK

    I know that I am in the minority and am being an old Fudd but I like the Eotech with a 3x multiplier, that said the T2 is a great Optic (the rest of my family prefer it because it is simple).
