A T3x would be my choice as well. Just have it threaded after you buy it. Then in the future you can up grade the stock me anything else you want to change. I’ve sold my custom rifles and all my builds are tikkas now. They’re hard to beat.
If you reload I’d try the 200.2xs They were made to be a shorter alternative to the 215s. We shot 5 cows with them from 400- 890 yards last January and they were all DOI except for the 890 yard shot which went about 40 yards with a good blood trail and fell over.
Good to see they have 14 boxes ready to load as well! Wish all the other common loads have that many in stock. The 6.5 creed, 6.5 PRC and 280 AI loads we use from them haven’t been replenished in months. Keep waiting for them to add 7 PRC too. Might have to try choice or Hemdershot.
Exactly. We hunted with an 87 gr v max in that rifle and .223 88 gr eldm would have only done the job better and almost the same velocity but a much better BC.
While hunting with a 6x45 in Washington I got checked by a game warden. He asked why the brass was stamped .223 and I explained to him what it was and he actually went and got a caliper out of his truck and measured it. Washington law was the only reason I built that gun for my sister or I would...
The “grey” marine Tex is black. I just did my stockys carbon with it and it turned out perfect. I sponged the whole stock with black krylon after I epoxied the grips. It’s actually been durable and looks great.
I got it. It looks good and the contour matches my PBB perfectly. The threads as well as the rest of the machining is much more clean than my previous Mcgowen prefits. I hope to spin it on this winter and start shooting it.
I won a lift in a drawing at the beginning of the month and it arrived yesterday. Sounds like mines probably one of the fixed ones, I’m excited to get it set up.
I’ve weighed alot of components though and done the comparisons and the only time I noticed issues with accuracy corresponding with inconsistent weights was with broadheads. I came to the conclusion though that was more a sign of the quality of the manufacturing that led to inconsistent...
