    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    Picked up some ammo this evening Winchester power point 129gr, eldx 143, eldm 140 and brought a new box of the same lot of eldm 147 and went to shoot. Shooting with a scythe, shot 5 rds with no time in between only stopping to reload the mag. Went in a round robin for two rounds of each. 1st...

    Help with Schnee’s Pac boots

    They make a 6mm (i think) wool felt insole you can buy to fill up space too. They're not mountaineering boots but they'll do. If you think you need a 10 size PM me.

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    I'm going to get a couple of new boxes and shoot them and see what happens. If all goes well I will mix in a fresh one of the lot I have and see what happens. Is there any risk to the gun if I get some of these heavy bolts now and again trying to figure this thing out?

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    That is my gut reaction too. I have shot 200 rounds of that lot with no issue and have 300 of that lot left. Can there be that much variance within a lot?

    Help picking Turkey season boot

    Of those I have the summits, there good boots. In the last two years I have moved to a zero drop (vivo and lems). I really like being able to feel the ground under foot compared to a stiffer soled boot. I am able to be quieter and stealthier. You don't need a zero drop to get this, just a...

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    To get back on topic a bit. I don't know if it is a "carbon ring" or not, it was just the first suggestion. Looked though some notes and there's 356 rds on the gun through 3 different lots 40, 100, 216 rounds (all 147 eldm) in that order. Started a fresh box when the issue started and...

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    Curious how people that don’t clean would go about this. Or if cleaning the chamber out is the only option.

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    Nothing but bullets down the barrel. Thanks for the carbon ring suggestion, I will have to investigate.

    Cold bore zero versus (very) Hot bore zero “test”

    Its more of a random numbers game. Say you have a gun that shoots 2 moa, and your zero is actually zero, as long as they all fall in that circle that's all that matters. The idea is not to get caught up in two were touching and the third was an inch high. Or 5 were in all an inch form each...

    Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5

    I have a tikka t3x (in a KRG bravo) 6.5cm shooting factory 147 eldm. I have 150-200 rounds down the gun and have not had one hiccup. Was shooting this weekend and the 3rd round in the mag (MDT 5rd poly mags) I had a really heavy bolt lift. I was shooting prone and had to break position and...

    Cold bore zero versus (very) Hot bore zero “test”

    I've chased my tail on a few guns like this. Not getting good (or confusing) 3 or 5 rd groups, chasing zero etc,etc. Shoot a 30rd group, I bet they all fall in the cone of the rifle. Once I started down this road I have had no problems (along with a scope that works). Its a great way to set...

    Help with truck storage systems for bed cargo?

    I finally got a decked drawer for my truck (with topper) and love it. So much better than having a tool box, I love having a full bed and all my shit underneath and easily accessible. It works really well with a topper and better yet a topper with win-doors. Not only do you get a full bed...

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    Tundra Boot appears to be live. I want to try them, but might wait for others to first. Really want to see how they compare to Mukluks (minus the obvious sole/tread difference).
