Tikka roughtech ranch?
Yes. Tons of Roksliders have done it, so I did it too… no issue doing 1/2x28 on the 6.5cm pictured. I just got it back from the smith yesterday. The bolt is still at Kampfield for fluting. The rifle will be put into a Peak 44 stock for a light weight, “walking” rifle. -

I ended up buying a Peak 44 black tooth; won’t have it in time for this hunt, but I will do the victor cheek riser and vert grip module for now. I already got the barrel chopped to 16.5”. Scope is inbound, Leupy Mk4HD 2.5-10 FFP TMR and have UM rings waiting for it. -

I have not tried the stocky’s VG but the grip looks way too far back to me. I can’t see that trigger reach working out for me even with an XL glove size. -

Can a scope moving in the rings damage the Scope?

Can a scope moving in the rings damage the Scope?
Always a good idea to use a lapping kit alignment bars to at least check your ring alignment, lap if necessary. Then use rosin on the inside of the rings when doing the scope install. Then of course proper torque and thread lock. I have never had a scope shift since implementing this procedure. -
Tikka 6.5 Creed rechambered to PRC
Nice. For posterity, re-chambering a 6.5 CM to 6.5-284 is always an option for those in this situation and doesn’t require any bolt modifications. Just bolt stop and magazine. -
25 GT, is it the new 257 Roberts?
Wouldn’t a 25 CM make more sense since you have a 6mm CM? Just thinking about brass availability/compatibility of necking up. I like the idea of all the 25 based cats with the new heavy for caliber bullets. I have always had a soft spot for the quarter bore for some reason. -

How many hunting rifles do you have?
I have way too many guns from my younger years. As I got older, quality over quantity became more apparent. It’s hard to sell used rifles unless it’s discounted so much it becomes a major loss. The whole “guns hold their value” thing is BS; like everything, a used gun is only worth what someone... -
