    Stockys tikka stock

    I posted my thoughts on this somewhere else. Mine was a painted version that lacked finish work. I returned it and stockeys stood behind their product. The replacement was bare carbon vertical grip and looked great. I got the sendaro profile and have had carbon barrels in it as well as a...

    Stockys tikka stock

    My guess is not much. It would be measured in grams.

    Is my barrel f-ed?

    It happens. Steel rod, copper brush with grit, excessive crown damage from not using a guide... Take your pick. It's usually a strong desire to do something mixed with ignorance. We've all learned lessons the hard way at some point in life.

    Is my barrel f-ed?

    Agreed. Button pulled barrels are cheap to manufacturer. They can shoot well but often have these marks.

    Tricer Tripod, Head, and Bino Adapter Review, By Matt Cashell

    I picked set up on sale after the hunting season. Really nice setup in my opinion. I haven't spent much time behind it but it's solid enough for my use.

    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    I had one out of spec that was out of spec on multiple actions. I gave the barrel maker the info to put it into spec and they took off double. For those guys every day is a Friday. So yes, better check your headspace. If not, better check your head.

    Trespassing? Worth shooting a snowboarder?

    A guy I know worked with the landowner in the PNW several years back. Said he was a nice guy but a little annoying. Not sure how he ended up in Utah with those pants but looks like he now owns property adjacent to Brighton.

    Bartlein break in rounds

    Thanks for all the info. My question has been answered and I should have a couple hundred rounds down it before April. I should have left the part out about the creedmoor but I was thinking out loud.

    Bartlein break in rounds

    I have done that before but not when I have Garmin burning a hole in the case. It's so damn easy to use, why not use it and track data points?

    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    Mount the vise solid and try the overnight freezer on the barrel with action lightly warmed. I forget who suggested it but it works well for my automotive projects.

    Bartlein break in rounds

    Barrel is .5" longer on the PRC and the projectile is 12gr heavier. The CM has had factory and hand loads perform similarly. The PRC only has some break in factory 147 eld-m. I do expect they'll speed up like most barrels do.

    Bartlein break in rounds

    Just cleaning for copper between a couple shots. I'd be happy if it only takes 50 rounds. I'm just curious how many more I need to get thru it to trust the dope. Id also like to see if it's worth the upgrade from my 6.5cm

    Bartlein break in rounds

    How many rounds did your bartlein take to get it up to speed? I have a 6.5 PRC that's about as fast as my factory 6.5 CM but I only have a dozen rounds through it. There are a lot of variables but I'm expecting to at least see another 100-150 fps. I just hope I can get there sooner than...

    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    Great for putting a barrel on and using a torque wrench. I wouldn't use one on a factory torqued barrel unless it was in conjunction with an external wrench.

    VOTE: Maven's Next Scope

    I'd take one of these and a 3-15 or 3-12 x 44. I'd want capped windage, fat elevation turret in mils and a reticle similar to the swfa mil quad. Those silly tree reticles are for the Lorax.
