    Q&A for ZCO 4-20x50mm Field Eval

    Snipers hide is a great place to sell these scopes. That forum has more LARPers than a comic con convention.

    WTB Looking for Replacement Tikka bolt with 0.378 (.223) bolt face

    I have been on the waitlist for one of these for a while and thought I’d see if anyone on the forum has one they are willing to part with. My tikka already has the standard and magnum bolts, just looking to round out my collection.

    midwest gun works and JA outdoors both stock them, they seem to be unavailble right now. But its a good option as they do come back into stock time to time.

    Tikka 6.5cm varmint heavy barrel, how short!?

    I voted 20” because 18” was not an option. An 18” barreled tikka varmint in 308 is one of the best rifles I have ever owned. That rifle has been all over the world- including backpack sheep hunts. Don’t limit yourself to a half a mile from the road!

    Talk me out of or into this rifle

    Its a newer steel that was designed to be well balanced for toughness and edge retention without being too difficult to hone an edge in the field. I would say that is true. I use a portable WorkSHarp in the field, and i have only touched up the blade with the leather strop so far and it is...

    Has anybody hunted sheep with a heavy rifle?

    Jack O’Connor first chased sheep with an 11 lb gun. I took an 11 pound gun on a back pack dall hunt, no regrets. I think guys get too hung up on the couple pounds in a rifle. The difference i weight is roughly one day of food. Take something reliable that you shoot well.

    Thanks! I’m a bit of an overpriced gear dork. It is an Arno Bernard Kudu with kudu bone handle. 8” overall length with a 3.5” blade. Cannot say enough good things about it, got me away from my disposable blade addiction.
