    New Tikka Inbound and Another Question about Stocks

    Surprising. I just got an MDT field stock and I think it's fantastic for the price. Can't remember the site but I got the stock and an AICS mag for $320 shipped to my door. Did require a tiny bit of trimming but the stock itself is by far the nicest $300 stock I've ever bought. Nothing else...

    Tikka MDT Field Stock fit issues

    Anyone have issues with this? I got a 10-round MDT AICS metal mag (no binder plate) and it won't seat/latch. Tikka CTR in case it matters. Mag is clearly running into the bottom of the action.

    New Tikka Chassis Rifle Coming T3X Ace Game & Target

    CTR stock is actually a very decent hunting stock with good ergos and super light weight.

    Take off barrel caliber/value

    They do seem to go really high on ebay... Unfortunately the 22-250 I'm looking at is 1:14 twist and I think that would limit value quite a bit. Of course the 308 is about 70 dollars more expensive so I'm not sure if the 308 would bring that much more of a premium or not. It's a 24" so...

    Take off barrel caliber/value

    Super varmint, not varmint. My bad. They're all threaded semi-heavy barrel. They're all stocks with adjustable cheeks.

    Take off barrel caliber/value

    Long story short. Trying to help a buddy. Gonna buy a Tikka CTR/UPR/Varmint just for the action and stock that he likes. Can get a decent deal on either a 22-250 or 308. If it’s a longer barrel (24”), is the 308 or 22-250 barrel likely to sell quicker? Or about the same?

    Bushnell customer support (or lack there of)

    I had a cheap bushnell prime scope that I had a windage turret screw back out on me while hunting so I lost the turret cap and screw. I called just asking to buy replacement parts and they answered quickly, talked to me in english with a person from America, and in less than a week I had an...

    Tikka 243, 22-250, or 308 action with a 6.5 cm PVA osprey prefit for a Tikka

    Prefit barrel question

    Tikka CTR action, PVA osprey prefit I don't have gauges so I'll have to figure that out (amazon out of stock on everything it seems)...but I never really planned on rebarreling without gauges anyway, even if it "should" fit

    Prefit barrel question

    I know it's a dumb question - if I want to go to 6.5 creedmoor, and I have a 243 or 308, I can screw in a shouldered 6.5 CM prefit barrel and it should headspace correctly without any problem? In theory at least? As long as it's a 308 bolt face, the bolt and bolt face don't know or care what...

    6.5 Creed build - Impact 737r, pre-fit mfg, profile?

    Let me go find the dang link - posted the wrong one. That's the one I sent to a buddy asking about something. We'll agree to disagree on the Tikka. You can learn a lot about shooting and reloading before you'd even know the difference between a moderately modified tikka and a much more...

    The link I posted hours ago was a lefty.

    6.5 Creed build - Impact 737r, pre-fit mfg, profile?

    I was referring to the option the OP mentioned. Nothing at all wrong with the Solus action either. That's a very reasonable option - comparable to the Tikka as you mention.

    6.5 Creed build - Impact 737r, pre-fit mfg, profile?

    If you're going to replace everything, buy something else and spend $2k more. You're already committed to big $ if you're replacing everything on a gun that already shoots great. If you're buying your first centerfire bolt gun (like the OP), there is NOTHING wrong with the Tikka to get...

    Describe your perfect scope

    In the US I think it's a support issue. Months and months to get through customer service just isn't a realistic ask at the Minox price points IMHO. If they opened a US division with Vortex customer service, their sales here would skyrocket. JMHO

    Describe your perfect scope

    I haven't seen the Steiner T6 series, but the Steiner T5 series scope I had was among the worst optical scopes I've ever used, at any price point. I had a $100 black friday nikon 3-9x40 that had significantly better glass. I'm surprised to see any mention of Steiner in a "perfect scope"...

    6.5 Creed build - Impact 737r, pre-fit mfg, profile?

    There is a lot of truth in here. I've been shooting precision for nearly a decade and just now going with my first custom barrel. Been running a factory Tikka CTR action/barrel/trigger that whole time. Replaced the factory bolt handle with a sterk and the factory stock with a Manners at the...
