Need some input on future anodizing. Tumbled only on bottom va tumbled then blasted on top. Tumbled only engages and disengages more smoothly due to the gloss finish. Shows some minor tooling marks but it also “mars” less. The blasted ones are matte, more grippy, but show pretty much zero...
For everybody that ordered a mag on the first go I’ve finalized a new follower and springs to retrofit your existing mags. Completely solves the hard to load 3rd round and shoulder denting issue.
Material for followers should be here any day and springs by the end of the week. Thanks for your...
Sorry but the sale is over at this point. I might be able to come through with a free shipping code for Rokslide members only though.

Buy the 300 Win. If you ever want to rebarrel or use the platform for a custom build you'll have a LOT more caliber options instead of limiting yourself to non-magnum bolt face short action calibers.

Ha! Nope it's an 1:8". This was also a consistently sub 3100fps charge weight load. I still need to pin gauge the bore to see but it's gotta be a bit tighter than others.

Not unique to the ELD-M’s, how thick are the EOL jackets?
I saw this from a 28 Nosler just two weeks ago. 5R barrel and 3200fps with a 195 Berger. Other 4 shots were 5” to the right.

Update as of today. I’ve got a plethora of factory tikkas and bottom metals in the shop. Id initially paired a factory bottom metal with my own personal action in a factory stock, a Mesa stock, and a new AG stock for testing.
We’ve discovered that all factory bottom metals are indeed...
Am I the only one reading this post who thought "heavy" scopes were 30+ oz? :LOL: I see a lot of 22-30 oz optics mentioned which I always thought were "light-ish".... But then again this isn't the LR forum ;)
For myself its not really about total weight. It's about balance. Stacking a 34+...
The only effect I've seen the Magnetospeed have is POI shift. It's consistently .6-.9 MIL vertical at 100 yards POI shift on my rifles. Up until recently I've used one for 100% of load development on every rifle for the last 3+ years. I like to know whats going on! Never once seen accuracy...
Buy an elk tag instead. 2 of the last 3 winters has the ID deer herds hurting, you could be in traditionally excellent country and see 10% of the what you'd normally see when herds are "healthy". If you're looking for an experience, go elk hunting. If you're looking for big deer, well, go...
Yes. That’ll be happening this fall sometime. It’ll be a factory copy with an improved latch design.
Thanks for the orders everyone Monday will be a busy busy shipping day!

Any long action calibers will be the last thing we do. You don’t gain anything over a factory mag other than a material upgrade.

I am planning on these being a regularly stocked item. From the response I've gotten today though I imagine they will be sold out fairly quickly. We're already starting a second run already.
Other calibers will be shortly after. We need to modify shoulder stops a touch but feed lips looks to...
Thank you Sir. We tried but there were a few additional ops needed on machining but I'm most impressed we're less than 8 weeks from concept to production. Comparing that stamped steel AICS mags are $80, Factory plastic mags are $40-$55, other AICS billet mags on the market are $120+ I feel...
Okay guys, magazines are live on the website. For those of you who "jumped the gun" I've gotta contact you about issuing you a $10 off code and free shipping... Couldn't even give me 30 minutes to get the code and website updated haha
Please use Tikka10 for $10 off and free shipping with your...
Absolutely! These things are good n tight.
Okay folks, I’m going to get these up on the website tomorrow. There won’t be a “pre order” as originally planned. Instead We have mags ready to ship....
They will discounted 10% below planned retail for the first week. After that they’ll be full...
First complete mag is done [emoji736] cycles great with the new AG Tikka Alpine hunter and factory 300wsm barrel action!

Oh boy what do we have here?!
Got a new stock in for review of the inletting... it’s NICE and the lines flow super well with the tikka action profile. No more retrofitted R700 stocks....
