Ive heard good things about rock creek blanks as well. Only reason i ended up with the osprey blank is because pva didnt have and rock creek blanks on hand and wasnt sure when more would be coming in. The extra 100 bucks was worth not having to wait an unknown amount of time for a barrel blank.
Well i found a ready to ship tikka EH1 on the manners site and oulled the trigger. Fits freaking fantastic. Cant wait to get back home to start load development.
the trijicon accupoint has better lowlight performance than the leupold vx6hd and with leupolds history of return to zero and tracking issues i would trust the trijicon
with as good as the tikka actions are im surprised this hasnt sold already. i bought a non ctr for only a few bucs less not to long ago. id have gladly prefered the coating on the ctr. good luck with the sale.
Gotta give a massive hand for josh and joe over at patriot valley arms. Ordered my rock creek prefit on saturday, they called me monday to let me know they didnt have any rock creek blanks in stock but did have their new osprey blanks available. Went ahead and upgraded and got an email today...
Dont both the ag and mcmillans atleast come with factory installed pillars? I would probably feel better about not bedding it if it atlesst came with factory pillars. Its going to be a walk around hunting gun so it deffinately wont get treated gently.
For those who have shot manners stocks unbedded and then went and bedded the stock at a later time did you see any improvement? Im looking at purchasing an eh1 stock for my tikka without the mini chassis and have been told that the stock does not need pillars to be installed or to be beded, to...
Looking for whats out there for my tikka build. looking for either a manners eh1tk with the mini chassis or just with pillars for the factory plastic bottom metal or an AG composites Alpine Hunter inletted for the same tikka factory bottom metal. I know manners has a flat top eh1 available just...
I went with a light palma contour in a shouldered barrel, should be close to the same profile as my ctr barrel on my other rifle. should have a 1.160 tennon according to pva website. JA outdoors is exactly who I bought my action off of and for the price you are right you wont come close to...
I went with a 1-7 twist as Ill be shooting 80 grain eldm bullets.
Im hoping to see 3050 fps that way i can zero at 50 and be point of aim +or- 4 inches out to 350 yards.
I just ordered the barrel this weekend, after speaking to josh personally he stated to me that their current lead time is...
Gonna be using this post to document my build for my newest rifle. Will be based off a tikka action and a barrel from Patriot Valley Arms. I went with a 20 inch light palma contour in 22GT. added parts for this will be Mountain Tactical bottom metal and one of their new raptor scope mounts...
yeah i just prefer sfp for my hunting rifles since im either on minimum and its a close enough shot where i need a big center aiming point or its a longer shot and im on max mag anyway. seems like the nxs is gonna be my choice.
that was my main concern as some of my shooting on coyotes and predators would be later on into the night. and i wanted the best glass i could get for low light conditions. one of my biggest gripes about the duplex reticle on the leupold is the thickness of it. is the reticle in the nightforce...
