Max COAL for a factory mag is supposedly 3.340" but I do remember measuring mine at some point and it was like 3.360" or 3.380" IIRC. Could you confirm this @goathunter ?
I should have clarified that I'm using the Mountain Tactical magazines, kind of forgot about that! Had a buddy borrow my factory mag last year on an elk hunt and haven't seen it since so I can't confirm whether or not they fit in a factory mag. My COAL touching the lands is 3.356" in my rifle...
AG Alpine Hunter Stock for Tikka
Proof Sendero Barrel and Standard Tikka bottom "Metal" Inlet
(2) Spartan Bipod Adapters installed
It shows signs of use but totally functional and still looks pretty decent.
Asking $450 shipped
I would like to sell this as a package for someone looking to rebarrel a Tikka to 6.5 PRC. Pretty much everything you need is here to get started and is in great shape. This barrel is in excellent shape and has no marks from installation or removal. It shot .375" groups consistently with my...
I ended up ordering a stainless 7-08 from euro optic for $750 on sale. Add in this $75 rebate and thats a pretty good deal. About the best I’ve seen at least. There are a bunch of other chambering’s available as well.
I have one I might consider selling. It is from a Veil model so it is fluted and threaded. Stainless with that tan colored cerakote that they use on the Veil models. Shoots very good! Consistent .375” groups with hand loads and often times less. I think it has right around 100 rounds down...
I’ve been keeping an eye out but haven’t seen much yet. Looks like EuroOptic has about the best deals right now. Trying to get a stainless 7mm-08 this year for a closer range, do all rifle.
I put a Proof 7 PRC barrel on my Tikka earlier this year and have been very happy with the cartridge/action combo. I haven’t loaded anything heavier than the 175 eldx but had no issues touching the lands and fitting in the mags. I really like that bullet for hunting and don’t plan on changing...
Nice build! Do you happen to know the diameter at the muzzle where it meets the brake? I have been thinking about getting this brake for my 6.5 PRC but I think it could also work pretty well on my dads 7 PRC. The muzzle diameter on both of these rifles is about .725" and its been kind of hard...
I was interested in this post because it mentioned a VG2 stock and a Howa. I just did some work on a VG2 stock tonight to get rid of the very hollow sound and was wondering if anyone had posted about that already. I was thinking about posting my fix to maybe contribute to the forum and help...
I have had the XTR lll illuminated 3.3-18x50 for a short time now but so far really like it. It seems very comparable to my NX8 as far as turrets and image quality which is surprising given the price point. I might actually give a slight edge to the Burris for image quality and the field of...
