Tac Ops Rifles

Nah, I get more boobs with a boat than my guns. Lol

I don't mind giving a discount if someone invites me on a boat ride and I can drop a line in the water . Oh, almost forgot make sure MGD's are on ice ;) and we will be good LOL...

Was TacOps to come out with a hunting rifle at some point...Thought I read that in here awhile back??
Below is a Tac Ops Hunter with Titanium action, Manners Carbon Fiber Stock, and - IIRC Krieger #3 Contour barrel. Weight 6.5lbs. rifle only. Approximately 7.5lbs. with Tac Ops Titanium Suppressor. The Nightforce Rings are light but the PMII 5-25[56] is the pork at 38 oz.

Lima 51 I picked up used in a a local gun store. Virtually unfired by the original owner. Rifle, scope, bipod and tac ops drag bag 5k out the door :)

He had a Tango 51 too which I passed on, should have grabbed that too!

need to shoot Federal Gold Medal Match through that thing

or if your hand loading duplicate that FGMM load with the powder /bullet/primer /case. Use that powder folks use that’s closest to federals powder can be found on here I’m sure

the groups should tighten up substantially

Found some old load data I'd written down, which included the below to duplicate the factory FGMM 168gr loads. If I remember correctly 43gr of IMR-4064 gave me very similar results.

As always, work up, be safe, etc etc.

"42 grains of RL-15 as an accuracy load using the 168 grain SMK, Federal cases, Federal 210-M primers, 2.800" COAL, at 2600 ft/sec in a 26" barrel with a 1 turn in 10" twist rate."

Thanks Mike... I can’t wait for the two Tacops Platforms bearing Surgeon Actions (consecutive serials ). I’m excited to shoot them. I couldn’t go wrong with a tango and x-ray. 😜 excited I am
 
Great speaking with you :) Please feel free to call anytime...

Mike R.
Likewise Mike! I appreciate your time tonight and the phone call and look forward to owning one of your rifles!

Also if anyone has a Tacops rifle in northern CO or south eastern Wyoming, let me know! I really want to see one of these in person!
 
I added a Delta 55 to the mix (6.5x55 swede) that isn’t in the pics-but rest assured, it’s total TacOps badass!

The very first rifle I ordered from Mike R. was a Delta 6.5x55. Mike said he couldn't guarantee the accuracy because he never made one before. It shoots lights out. It now has a S&B PMII on top of it.

Ive been shooting Factory Norma 156 gr Oryx hunting loads out of mine. Most days it performs better than I’m capable of with hunting loads!
 
I’ve posted these before, love these guns! I added a Delta 55 to the mix (6.5x55 swede) that isn’t in the pics-but rest assured, it’s total TacOps badass!

now if I can figure out a way to add a Green Hornet and hunting rifle, I think I’d be set.....

pics are of:

Delta 66 (300 wm)
Zulu 63 (30-06)
Tango 51 (308)
X-Ray 51 (308)

I started with Norma match loads 130 gr. I now load the Norma 130 gr. for the rifle. BTW, the Green Hornet is my most used Tac Ops rifle that I have. Killing varmints with it for years.
