Touch more case capacity is about it. Real close OAL and performance but the SAUM should be a bit faster. I’d run whatever one you already have brass/dies for.

Yessir, looking forward to finding time to get a load worked up! Not sure if I'll run Retumbo, H1000, or N565....
That is a 1 of 1 stock.... ;) Its the Ibex from benchmark made by AG, but they had quite a few issues getting the tikkas to work in their stock mold they won't make them anymore...
Recent build coming along nicely... 25 SAUM 23.5” summit contour. Still gotta work up a few finishing touches.
We’re about ready to roll on a little over 30 tikkas. Got actions all disassembled and sorted by chambers. I think I’ve got 17 300wsm’s and 19 6.5 PRC’s with a few Sherman Max’s thrown...
Only thing I don’t like about the WSM is the lack of Alpha quality brass. I sure wish Lapua/Peterson/Alpha/ADG would pick up the 300WSM.
Justin’s barrel is a freak at that speed, but closely resembles my heavy hunter contour. Last few I’ve been running with H1000 and 4831sc have been in the...
It’s made by AG for benchmark barrels. Wicked stock, RH only inlet with a big vertical grip and huge palm relief behind the grip. It’s the only stock I run where I have to pull the barreled action to bore sight, comb height is that high!
Weigh is 31 oz. unfortunately they’ve taken up to 6...
Just finished final assembly on this rifle. All top notch components with the best hunting stock out there.
Mbm 3 port .935” Titanium brake
HCA 1:8” 26” finish heavy hunter Cnc chambered
LPA Razor Ti
Ibex stock, carbon desert pattern
Triggertech @ 1.5#
Hawkins BDL/Wyatts CFE14 box.

Looking for the 25-60 wide angle eye piece for the TSN 776 Spotter.
Also up for trades for gunsmith work or carbon barrels.
I've got the 30X eye piece I'd be willing to trade plus $$$ as well. Sorry can't do paypal they shut my account down due to it being "firearms related"... smh
So I'll have...
Anyone that asks me to build a long action magnum on a tikka gets turned down. You can do a 7 Rem mag with the light bullets but at that weight class you're better off with a WSM/SAUM. If I just wanted their money then yeah sure I'll do it, but very few customers who ask for that particular...
Thanks for the support fellas, I've got over a dozen barreled actions on the bench right now and another 40+ on the shelves waiting. We're moving pretty dang fast right now but it hasn't left me much time for customer relations or social media :)
Hope ya'll are staying active and healthy...
I would definitely nail down your seating depth with the primer you ladder tested first. Often times primers will bump you out of your fps node.
I’d run 0/.10/.20/.30/.50/.60/.80/.100” off the lands and see what shows promise. You’ll often find a sweet spot from .080-.120” off as well as a...
What are you looking for? I’ve got some inventory 6.5/8T and 7mm/8T cores that just arrived today. 3-4 week lead time for wrapping.
Rebarrels are out about July right now. Doing defiance, Kelbly, Lone peak, R700, and Tikkas (other R700 clones shouldn’t be a problem, these are just what I’ve got...
Is that .020” overall length of brass or .020” farther on the shoulder datum line you’re measuring for brass sizing?

140 Berger VLD’s in the 6.5mm variant have been stellar on game in everything.
Last customer wanted to shoot the 143’s and it shot like this. Off a tikka action and i throated it way out for him.

Wind gypsy is correct above. I can hit a target throat length within .002-.003” by hand with a throater, but with a reamer spec’d for it, it’ll be within .001” every time. Makes for very consistent load development as well :)

Less time on my part with a throating reamer with the tedious measuring of freebore.
I’ll be doing each caliber group together on the Cnc so it’ll save quite a bit of time!

I did my best to stick to the science of the matter and not to just make a blanket statement like "we're the best".
I don't think you'll ever see an overwhelming presentation of "our stuff is okay and on par with the competition" in advertising and especially in this industry where we are at...
Have had this thing for 3 seasons now. Killed a lot of animals with it! Zero issues always worked. 9-13”ish length. Missing rubber foot caps. Few scuffs but no cracks or dings. Was $240 new
Asking $200 shipped CONUS. Check or money order only.
