    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    I’d clean chamber and bore. Some people preach about never cleaning their rifles. I don’t subscribe to that practice. I’d clean it real good.

    6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

    Aren’t speed goats the fastest land animal over sustained distance? Cheetah are 70 in short burst but antelope 50 + for a couple miles.

    6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

    Looking at the pics these wounds look like boiler room. Good shots.

    6mm arc build Howa Mini or buy complete

    Awesome. I am taking my son on youth deer hunt the 27th and debating between the ARC and 108 ELDMs or my 6.5 Creedmoor with some 129 grain Interlock handloads. I've seen reports of the 6 ARC and 108 ELDMs anchoring deer sized game on the spot. I'm in TN so don't know about pronghorn.

    Have you cleaned the rifle's bore at all?

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    Clean the chamber real good with a shotgun bronze brush and solvent. You may have gotten a carbon ring in the throat.

    Tikka T3x lite bullets .308

    I loaded 130 TTSX over Ramshot TAC for my son and got 3050 FPS. Killed his first deer like lightning.

    No wonder you hid your face in the pic with a smiley face.

    2024 Improved Burris Veracity PH

    I really like the FFP Rapid Cross reticle. I’m not even sure I’ll use the turret out to 400 yards. I hit deer vital sized steel using just the hold overs.

    Howa Mini in 22 ARC

    Well Would it be a thread hijack if I asked what’s better for deer sized game…6 or 22 ARC?

    6ARC Tikka

    I live 15 minutes from Southern Precision Rifles aka Bug Holes. He has a pretty good reputation and I’ll leave my barreled actions with him. His turn around isn’t quick.

    6ARC Tikka

    I’m coming to this conclusions as well. Barrel life is an important consideration for me cause I don’t do barrel swaps and turning my gun over to a smith to be gone for 5 months to get rebarreled is pretty inconvenient. I got my Howa Mini 6 ARC barreled action from Brownells for under $500...

    Howa Mini in 22 ARC

    This thread had me look up the 22 ARC. I might get a mini barreled action if it comes out.
