    DIY Tikka Barrel Swap, By Dioni Amuchastegui

    They will all headspace but some are torqued on at 250lbs in order to get the correct headspace.

    I wanted to order this in a tungsten with carbon tear but didn't find the comments when I ordered from the phone. It looks good and a few color combos standard would be a nice idea.

    It's not that bad. You'll eat a lot of green jello and funeral potatoes, drink "dirty" soda and learn some new phrases like "oh my heck". Oh, and don't get excited about going to a stake house, it's not what you think. After you're 6 months into your residency you'll establish residency...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph

    Yes, and I should have listened to it the first time. I got home and forgot to do it. My third session I only got a few 223 rounds off before it crapped out. I missed nearly all of my 270wsm i really wanted data on. Nothing worked until I drove back to service and updated while connected to...

    Negative comb cheek riser?

    I did this with my Bradley on a fierce fury. It worked fine but I went back to the triad for the pouch and pad.

    6.5 elk bullet poll!

    I bet if she used a 30 cal that bull would have twice as many points.

    That's my understanding. Unless you specify you get the full rack which seems to be 14.5", correct?

    Sold LRHS 4.5-18 MOA

    If you end up wanting the mil version, let me know. I have a LRHS2 in the safe that's like new. I've preferred my SFP scopes and SWFA FFP scopes.

    Tricer Presidents Day Sale

    I used code "Reagan" and paid full price but didn't feel bad when it was over. I tried to stack Code "HW Bush" for no new taxes but I'll be damned if they didn't get added back in after checkout.

    I went back and forth on the tear pattern but opted for bare carbon because there wasn't much info available. I'd love to see a single color with shading in the tear pattern that's already on a stock. Maybe my next one can be that way.

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph

    I didn't update mine and missed multiple shots last time I was out. Unfortunately, the whole trip was about SD and different primers. I drove back to service and updated it for the last shots. Moral of the story is to power it on and update the damn thing before you leave civilization or...

    Direct Thread Suppressor: How Tight to Stay Tight?

    I go hand tight and retighten during the first shooting session. If the barrel gets hot and you hand tighten then it likely isn't coming off by itself after cooling.

    Is a 300 WSM worth buying?

    I just bought a new tikka 300wsm last month. Pulled the barrel off that same day. It will live it's best life as a 6.5prc. So the answer is yes, a 300wsm is worth buying.

    Tikka compact w/ 20 inch barrel - velocity loss

    I'll have to check my notes but I remember my chromoly barrel not losing as much as I thought. 6.5cm cut to 20" and only lost about 18 fps per inch I think.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    The owners from tract and maven came from other established optics companies. My guess is there was a previous relationship that made the transition easier.

    Tikka T3X Lite

    Not all blueing is created equal. I have mostly cerakoted Tikka rifles that were blued. Prior to cerakoting they'd show rust on an oiled rag after a humid hunt. I had older firearms that I've hunted with in Louisiana that never showed corrosion with minimal care.

    Sciatica?

    I had two discs rupture when I was younger. PT told me I had tight hamstrings and to stretch. That resulted in shooting pain down the leg. Long story short, I got one of them fixed and deal with the other. It's been 24 years and I still deal with it but I'm pretty active in both my job and...

    What’s going on with the Factory Hornady 7 PRC ammo?????

    Same here but I finally opted for the 6.5 PRC. Mine should be built by March.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    I have the tract toric you mentioned and a credo in SFP. Both are great scopes, imo. I do recall the tract not doing so well in any of the drop tests but it's already outlasted all my vortex scopes that have moved on to a better life.
