    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    Ok Status update, it's off! The leather was just too slippery so I went with the toilet paper roll as suggested. I used a Wheeler #1 action wrench with the top cap flipped. I then used the skinny flat on the bottom face of the wrench on the underside of the action on the flat right behind...

    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    If I'm reading this correctly, and I know I am. You're telling me I need to buy a new Tikka before attempting this, this I can support. Best idea yet.

    Best 300 win mag mountain rifle

    Remington Core Lokt really? I'll be, never had luck with that stuff. Maybe the Czech's will make it more consistent. https://www.americanrifleman.org/content/czechoslovak-group-acquires-federal-cci-hevi-shot-remington-ammo-speer/

    Best 300 win mag mountain rifle

    Tikka x2. Once you get used to a bolt action feeling that way you can't go back. Everyone I've had or used has performed out of the box. My only gripe is the factory stocks on the lite rifles leave a lot to be desired. I'd either just use it as is until I can upgrade to something better or...

    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44mm Field Eval Q&A

    4mm is a big difference, yeah pun intended <wink wink>, tube size. All kidding aside it's more of a bulk and balance issue for me. Owning several ATACR's and Tenmiles, I vastly prefer 30mm tubes on my hunting rigs even long range ones. 34mm tubes just throw off the balance and quite frankly...

    I'll give it a try, it looks near identical design to the viper.

    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    Any suggesting on barrel vices? I purchased one off Amazon with some leather inserts - Mechforce but my barrel just spins in the leather. I'm not sure if I should try it without using the leather and maybe just dry wall tape or invest in one of the vices that come with bushings.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    Went with a 3x9 Huron. 15.8oz, i decided to go capped and standard reticle on the brush gun. Figure this is a 200yd and under sorta rifle.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    The 6x swfa is a tad chunky at 20oz and I already purchased a 1" direct mount. Is there a light 2-8 or did you mean the 2.5-10. This one has my attention other than backordered but is MOA only.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    What are your favorite mil hunting scopes? I've been looking for something mil based for my new tikka project but wanted to keep it as light as possible. With that in mind I was looking for 1" scopes but the only scopes I keep finding are a couple of 3-9 trijicon scopes and I've not had a ton...

    I guess it was enviable that I wanted to click on pictures and not get the please login message to see the full size. Mostly I'm here because I just like bolt actions, camo, camping and taking your poker money (lets be honest I never come home with more than I started) and I probably won't ever...
