    Purchased 2/8/24 Submitted 3/8/24 Approved 6/26/24 At my door today 7/29/24 less then 4 months wait on the ATF and over 2 months waiting in silencer central. A lot of wasted time with silencer central.

    243win Tikka. What to do?

    Wait it comes with a spacer? I could find that info anywhere. Unfortunately this rifle has been on the shelf long enough I think it’s the slower twist.

    243win Tikka. What to do?

    Limbsavers are a cure all for tikka.

    243win Tikka. What to do?

    I actually like the factory stocks minus the recoil pad. So I’d just find one on eBay or something. The compact is too short for me. I’d probably just thread the 20” barrel and thread it.

    243win Tikka. What to do?

    Good morning all, I’m going to pick up a brand new youth model tikka in 243win for $500. But I don’t know what to do with it. I could keep it and slap a new stock on it and use it for deer and coyote. Also was left with 20+ boxes of bullets from my grandpa when he passed he loaded for his...

    280 ackley vs 6.8 western

    Those are both cartridges I’m interested in. Which I’d go with would be dependent on the what bolt face the donor tikka I find has.

    Tikka T3X: Excessive throat

    I have a 30-06 T3x that jumps quite a bit. I think with 150gr TTSXs is was 0.16”. Seat the bullet to the mag length and send it. Shoot decent enough groups.

    Mag primers?

    What weight bullets are you loading. Those powders seem like you are loading heavier ones.

    Mag primers?

    I felt pretty lucky when walked into for local fleet store and they had about 2000 on the shelf. My wallet didn’t like it but I had to get 1000 and let some else enjoy some too.

    Mag primers?

    What mag primers? I stumbled on some and thought I’d try them.

    Mag primers?

    I understand the barrel length issue. Mines a 22” and expected some loss but not 200fps.

    Mag primers?

    Good morning all, So I’ve been working on a load for my 30-06 T3x w/ the Barnes 130TTSX and I’ve worked my way up to max using varget (56.5gr). I found that even at max I’m getting 200fps slower then book speed and speeds others are getting. So varget is out. I'm switching to Big Game. With...

    Calibers - Ruger Gen II

    The 20” barrel is still going to ring your ears if you leave the brake on. For 75yds I don’t think you are selling yourself short with the 350L. 0-250yds is what Winchester had in mind for the 350L. I hunt with a gen1 ranch in 7.62x39. Id be more than confident with it to 150yds. If you want...

    Barnes tsx 450 bushmaster

    At 10 yards you recovered a bullet on a whitetail? Velocity must be pretty low. That bullet should have went through.

    Need help solving Bear Creek Arsenal 350 Legend jamming

    I built a 350 legend and had this issue. I swapped in a H2 buffer which did help. I found the issue was mostly in the mag. I found that there was way too much tension in the rounds so I clipped 8ish loops of the unexpanded coils of the spring and expanded two to get the proper tension. I then...

    Two Rifle Setup - What Would You Do?

    Sounds like you are looking to build two of the same rifle. If it were me I’d go 6.8w as the hunting rifle and 223/5.56 as a cheaper trainier.

    Caliber for stick and string guy

    The only reason I’d buy that rifle is for the 6.8 western.
