    325 WSM?

    I would love to find a Browning BLR one day but not opposed to getting another barrel for my Tikka and getting vise and wrench to swap out the barrels. Corlanes has done a lot of work for me over the years and I like them too. Latest was an 8 twist KS Arms barrel for my 6.8 Western build. The...

    Who did your importing for you? I'm sure you'll love that gun. A few of us did it in reverse back when the LH 375 Ruger guns came out. Prophet River in Lloydminster AB took care of everything going from the US to Canada.

    Support for 6.8 western?

    I hear you, I was going to get a Tikka 270 WSM when the 6.8 Western was announced and went with that instead. You could just get a faster twist barrel and go with that. You probably will get a bit more speed than the 6.8 Western.

    Support for 6.8 western?

    Ah yes the wrong think, can't have anything that goes outside of what a few people think. Only certain bullets (or scopes, rifles etc) are acceptable and only certain people are to believed.

    6.8 Western pet loads?

    Yes the Alliant powders are impossible to find here these days. I ordered my N 565 from Nechako outdoors when they had a free shipping sale. Comes in 1 kg cans.

    Tikka Barrel Removal and Install Tool Swap Thread

    That's exactly how I ended up with my 260 Rem, lefty 243 and had the factory 260 barrel put on. With our 3 Tikkas we have in the house I need to get the vise and wrench to do barrel swapping.

    BC DIY Mountain Caribou

    Assuming you're a BC resident you might want to apply for one of the LEH areas. There is some really good info online that goes into all the different herds and their approximate populations. That will help you a lot to find out where you should look.

    7-08 Alberta moose

    I wonder if there was a problem with an individual lot or maybe a design flaw in that particular bullet? I haven't used Hammer's but they have a good reputation. The Accubonds will work awesome though .

    “Long Range” .270 Win?

    That's shooting very well. If your gun likes the 165 gr ABLR load it's hard to beat it.
