I have a Tikka that shoots really really well with a factory load I like. I’d like to cut and suppress it. If done correctly, what’re the odds that it won’t shoot that load as well as it does now? Is the idea that chopping a barrel could ruin accuracy yet another internet farce?
You know what it is. Run it the way it is or use the action to build a 7 PRC or SAUM. Some light carry marks here and there but in good shape.

Got ya. Personally, and this is only my opinion, high BC bullets (140+ for 6.5, 175+ for 7mm, etc) at 2900-3000fps represent THE MOST impressive ballistics on paper. But as for your dilemma on the 6.5 PRC or the 284 Win… oh dude, no question. 284 Win 100%. Shoot that 155 Deadblow!
I wouldn’t try and convince you to shoot monos out of a Creedmoor. Nope! Shoot the 143 ELDX or the 147ELDM If you want results that are anything but anemic. I respect your choice to shoot monos but the Creed is not the cartridge I’d do it from, personally! But I am curious, what exactly didn’t...
Got ya. In my experience, some rings fit certain scopes better as the 30mm tube actual sizing seems to vary ever so slightly between manufacturers. On the two NFs I mounted in Maximas, I didn’t personally encounter any issues with tightening the rings. I haven’t had any internal issues with my...
I’ll bring it up one more time so someone else can crap on me. Warne Maximas!
Pros:
- Mount directly to the integral Tikka rail
- Have a recoil lug
- Available
- Medium Warne Maximas are lower than Talley lows. Check out the measurements (.375 vs .51”)
- Made out of steel with a nice coating...

No one has mentioned the fact that you could buy a factory rifle in 7 PRC and have the twist rate and potentially the magazine to load some pretty heavy monos, like the 177 Hammer Hunters. I mean, that’s pretty cool to me but I understand not everyone cares about monos.
