    Left handed A-Bolt Stock?

    grfox92 is correct. I have an early 90's Browning Abolt II medallion 7mag with Boss that I shot for almost 30 years until I started using my Tikka 308. Bell and Carson is the only one I could find that offered a stock. So I decided to just keep it in its original wood stock and just change...

    Need a low light scope

    I like the meosport for what I use it for. I missed a shot at a nice 8pt during primative due to lack of low light in my optic. Bobby sent me the meosport to get a comparison with my Polar in real hunt situations. It was able to get me pass legal light here in south louisiana in my hardwoods...

    T3x Lite vs all other Tikka models - Practically speaking

    I hardly notice any difference. But I hunt tower stands. So the added weight isn't any real problem because I'm not hiking with it. But it still doesn't feel overly heavy to not carry it around. They both balance just fine. I'm really debating on putting my Polar on the CTR because the shorter...

    Need a low light scope

    Yeah Bobby put me on the Polar as well. I have it on my Tikka 308 and is my low light setup for my hardwoods. Figured I'd buy once, cry once. The trijicon accupoint, my son liked it so much, it's on his Rem 700 and the meosport I actually just bought it from Bobby for my CVA 350 legend for low...

    T3x Lite vs all other Tikka models - Practically speaking

    I have a T3 308 and a CTR 308. I bought the CTR for the added weight and also the 5/8-24 threads for a brake. Figured it would be a very light recoil rifle for the little ones. Well it took a turn and I put the CTR on a diet and placed it in a normal T3x roughtech stock with reg bottom metal...

    Need a low light scope

    I have both. And yes Bobby played a huge part in my purchases as well. To my eyes, the Trijicon is brighter than the Meosport R 3-15x50. Both take a back seat to the Schmidt Bender Polar, but it comes at 3x the price. The main difference is the illumination. The accupoint has no battery to...

    Looking for a quality mid priced hunting optic need advice.

    Meopta R 3-15x50. I have schmidt bender polar, optika 6, trijicon credo, trijicon accupont and the only one that is in your budget is the meopta R 3-15x50. Also comes with illuminated dot if your into that.

    Loose primer pocket fix question

    I don't have any loose pockets yet either and seems like the trash would be the safest bet also, but my Engineering head was trying to get wrapped around the concept.

    Loose primer pocket fix question

    I have been following threads and watching videos on youtube about using the 1/2" - 5/8" ball bearing and a hardened bolt to tighten the primer pockets. I don't have any of my brass with loose pockets "YET", but I'm still trying to wrap my head around how this tightens the pocket. I would...

    Tikka T3X Trigger Help

    Right, something isn't right. I don't know if it's even possible, but did you remove the stock spring? I don't think you can double spring it. Just thinking outside the box cuz it does seem weird.

    Tikka T3x 7mm Rem Mag Build

    Very nice. Only see one problem. The bolt is on the wrong side.

    Removing Loctite from action threads?

    Action itself - Tap, because it also chases any buggered up threads that you may have that you cant see. Action Bolts - Soak in acetone for 30 minutes, use small handheld wire brush to get them back to new.

    Need a Tikka mag for a long short action cartridge!

    Yes as others have said, get the L and either modify your bolt stop or bu a LA bolt stop. I have done this to both of my Tikka 308's

    Buying second hand on classifieds

    Bought several optics on this site as well as another site. Also bought my T3 Lite and CTR, both in 308, here on the site. Also got scammed once on a barrel from someones account that got hacked. Other than the barrel hacker, everything went flawless. Get lots of pics. I even when...

    Victor cheek riser, i feel dumb now

    I have been shooting rifles for well over 40 years. I never really got into precision shooting until the last 10 years or so. And it increased when I started reloading. I have seen numerous rifles with some sort of cheek riser on it and always wondered why would someone add that crap to a...

    Alpha scope for hunting really worth it?

    Depends on your hunting situation. I hunt hardwoods and open areas as well as out in SW Texas. I needed the best low light optic I could get so I opted for the Schmidt Bender Polar 4-16x56. Gives me enough on the high end for longer shots but also the low end and superior low light...

    Leica Magnus or S&B Polar

    Polar is low light king. If you truly hunt in very low light as I do, and it's in your budget, there is no equal. Some are close, but the T96 is the brightest. Also from the manufacturer, Leica 91% light transmission SB 96% light transmission
