    UM Tikka bolt handles

    Buy one of these arrow insert glues. They like Loctite 380 are both a rubber toughened cyanoacrylate. My guess is that they are Loctite 380 rebranded.

    Which action to buy

    This is the best I’ve seen that tests the reliability between actions with snow/ice. If I remember correctly it also has a discussion on R700 triggers/saftey. https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/ice-snow-comparison-between-rifles.291660/

    Black Hills 5.56 77 Gr TMK in Ruger American Gen 2 Predator 223

    Couldn’t you put sharpie on one of your bullets and chamber it to check for contact with the lands? It seems like extending the throat is little bit is a very easy way to reduce a potential issue when it’s guaranteed that someone is going to shoot 5.56 in a 223 rem.

    Black Hills 5.56 77 Gr TMK in Ruger American Gen 2 Predator 223

    Interesting that one of the 5.56 chambers actually had higher pressures than the 223 chamber with 5.56 ammo.

    Kifaru Warranty Not What It Used To Be

    I agree I don’t see how Aron leaving will improve anything from a customer service standpoint. I agree, I feel like Aron continued the legacy that Patrick built at Kifaru, but now the people calling the shots are the investors that took over. Unfortunately the outdoor industry is full of...

    According to Hornady the way higher pressures is approximately 65,000.

    Black Hills 5.56 77 Gr TMK in Ruger American Gen 2 Predator 223

    . I found this on the cz-USA website and apparently they think it’s safe. From what I understand they say the CIP 223 is the same dimensions as the 223 but with 556 pressures. Google CZ-USA 223 and you should find the link if you wish.

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I’m one of the guys who thinks that it is bruising on the inside of the rib cage in the Picture. First of all that’s a really clean thoracic cavity with only minimal blood left in the picture. My guess is that deer was washed out with a hose or 5 gallon buckets of water. Maybe @Harvey_NW can...

    143 ELD-X blew up on the shoulder?

    My opinion is that the bullet traveled parallel to the rib cage, and was not a perpendicular impact into the rib cage as described. I believe this due to the elongated horizontal intercostal muscle contusion, rib contusions(bone bruise) on the 1st-7th ribs(circled on rib pictures), possible...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Work is done on the bullet through resistance. If the bullet meets low resistance it won’t allow the bullet to change upset and damage increased levels of tissue. I’ll attach the equation of resistance for reference. The big take away is that velocity’s input into the equation for resistance is...

    Tikka T3X Recoil Pad? Aftermarket (non CTR)

    It seems like the Limbsaver air tech recoil pad is a popular replacement. I have one and like it but I didn’t compare it to the factory butt pad.

    CarbonSix Holiday Sale Order Status

    When you guys ordered, are you sure it specified what year it was supposed to be delivered? You might get your barrel in February/March after all! In all seriousness I haven’t ordered a barrel from c6 and don’t think I ever will because of this thread.

    143 ELD-X blew up on the shoulder?

    Don’t forget the 0.013 inch diameter difference. I think that makes the biggest difference.
