Really nice can you mention what base tikka T3 it is and what you have done?
This is the bolt stop I purchased for my 6mm Creedmoor build, looks good and functions well.

Tripod shooting practice.
And new Lapua Scenar L model testing, looking very good..

Not all Tikkas are threaded, the CTR and a few other models come threaded from factory. The Tikka CTR in the plastic stock is very light and would be easy to carry around hunting.Looking to purchase a tikka in next few months for light carrying hunting but eventually it will be a donor for a long range rifle. Does all tikkas barrel come threaded or is it just the CTR model?
Thanks in advance!

You could try heat, most epoxies will release around 130 degrees. Use some aluminum foil to mask off and direct the heat where you need it.This was not loctite, this was the clear epoxy/glue between the rail and receiver
got me some tacti-cool guy flutes

I made my mind up and was going to purchase a thunder beast for my 6.5 CTR. Of course silencershop.com (gonna do a trust) is sold out. So I’m back to waiting to wait. My question is, I know some velocity is lost with shorter barrels. I am looking to add a 308 CTR (free match ammo) to the arsenal. Does adding a suppressor gain or take away any velocity?
Have you checked out Capital Armory? They have lots of Thunderbeast stuff and I've heard great things about them. I might use them for my next can.
Yeah, I'm out on that one. I'm all about paying for quality, but $460 for a trigger is pretty damn steep.The Bix & Andy is $450.00. That’s a pretty hefty chunk of change, and would definitely cut a wide swath thru the rifle budget.
Yes, I have one in the works right now. You will either need to order a small shank (1.13"), which is what I did, or have your gunsmith do some work to make the 1.20" barrel look rightOk guys kinda new to this so. I’m sure this has been ask before but can you put a proof carbon fiber barrel on a Tikka t3x action

When you remove the butt pad you will find a plastic grate that holds the foam in place.Hi everyone, any thoughts on the Kalixtechnic CR1 cheek riser? Seems like a neat product at a semi-decent price. I would use it on a T3x factory camo stock. One thing I can't figure out after watching the instruction video is how to remove the innards of the stock, i.e. what the butt pad screws into and the styrofoam block. Maybe it's just pried out but I didn't want to try without seeing if someone knew.
If anyone has one to sell I might be interested as well.
Thanks!

I’m pretty tempted by the KRG Midas.

When you remove the butt pad you will find a plastic grate that holds the foam in place.
Remove the grate and bump the stock to see if the foam will come loose if not put a small flat head driver down to the side of the foam block or something to grip the foam and leverage it out.
If your stock has the cheek piece like the CTR does then you have to pop out the plug on top and remove the screw holding it on because that screw goes through and into the foam.
It comes out easy so should not be a problem as long as you can get a grip on it....
That's all there is to it.....Ok, so that plastic grate isn't glued in or otherwise permanent? I just yank it out with sone pliers?

I have a Proof being chambered already. I'll check them out though.Check out Carbon 6 barrels.
Yeah you can do it I’ve seen severalOk guys kinda new to this so. I’m sure this has been ask before but can you put a proof carbon fiber barrel on a Tikka t3x action

For the cost they are great triggers.Check out the Timney 2 stage trigger. Its awesome and adjusts down below a pound.
I have bought several suppressors from Tory @ Capitol Armory along with several guns. Great group of guys over there and they also do engraving.Have you checked out Capital Armory? They have lots of Thunderbeast stuff and I've heard great things about them. I might use them for my next can.
+1 for Capital Armory, I have purchased 2 cans thru them. Great prices and everything went smoothly,I have bought several suppressors from Tory @ Capitol Armory along with several guns. Great group of guys over there and they also do engraving.
A friend gave me one that I run on a remy with PTG flush bottom metal and it works great. Very well madeHas anyone tried the Curtis Custom 3rd AICS magazines with a Tikka? Doing a lightweight hunting build on a Tikka action and I like how these sit a lot more flush with the stock. Looks like the feedlips are a bit on the thicker side, though, resembling the Magpul mags which don't really work well with Tikka actions.
Thanks for the help.

These pics are not to good but you can see the gap between the two....Do any of you all have any comparison pictures or information that shows the difference between the bottom metal of a T3x vs T3x CTR. From what I understand the actions are the same but the bottom metal is different between them. I'm looking at a stock that is for a T3x and wondering how much milling would be required to fit it for my CTR.

Did you ever get the Terrain stock for the Tikka? Interested in pics.
Those pics are perfect. I think for as cheap as the stock is I'd give milling it out a shot.
It's plain to see that the CTR stocks are just the regular stocks that have been run through a cycle on the CNC/mill. You can totally open one up in the same way if you're handy. I opened up a GRS Berserk to take CTR bottom metal. The hardest part is finding flat surface to use as a reference. Lots of angles. If you actually a proper mill or CNC it's not a big deal. (I do not!)

$14-$20 from Mountain TacticalAnyone have a recommended source for replacement action screws? The $30-40 a set I'm seeing on ebay seems a little excessive for two screws.
