How do you like the stock geometry? Any issues with fit/form/function or otherwise? Have read on other threads where the peak stock may be a little ‘finicky’ as it pertains to action screw torque but most everything else seems to scream quality and excellence in general. Any detailed feedback...
Yep, would want one of the longer magazine options from the aftermarket to really seat the bullets where they oughta be.
I don’t know about milling a groove receiver, thought that was for other actions, but could be wrong as I haven’t tried one.
I’d buy 1 set for sure now, and if this product were to exist and well executed/trouble free I’d buy more SWFA 3-9’s resulting in more low profile turrets needed for the added scopes… so I’d end up with several sets
I like the idea, just was aiming at chambering I already have a pile of brass/dies for, but you’re right a 284 Win in an 18” barrel and LA bolt stop/mag would be just about the sweet spot for velocity with 162’s with a fairly mild load even… pretty compelling, let me stew on it a bit, any other...
I floated this a few pages back, would need 3 more to get a 7-08 option on the site, assuming these specs agree with ya
Tikka 750 taperless - 5/8 x 24.
SPECS:
Cartridge: 7-08
Throat: SAAMI
Length: 20”
Twist : 8”
Lapped - Sure
Fluting - If that’s what it takes to get 4 more on board
This one goes out to those of us that are (hopefully) also playing with Sig Fury brass resized to something nearby that makes more sense… even without fury brass, any of these with a LA bolt stop or CTR/AI bottom metal pushing heavy ELDM’s just makes sense, pick one and join me!
Tikka 750...
I’m just gonna toss this wacky idea out there because ya never know, ya know?
Tikka .750 Taperless contour threaded 5/8 x 24
Cartridge - 257 Weatherby
Throat - 0.257 (not a typo, should work for factory and long high bc reloads)
Length - 20"
Twist - 7.5 (8 would be fine too)
Idea here is...
Curious, any further observations/review of the experience with the Junction? How's it shoot? Any quirks or is it breaking in nicely with no surprises?
I like the way you think! Random thought: the Speer 270gr BTSP’s would be a good (and decently priced) option there to maximize speed/upset potential on target, decent bc (for 375), and short bearing surface relative to other options if you’re into that type of bullet
I’m guessing it’s an “A8” which’ll be a tikka pattern on the outside, with a 90’s bolt and trigger and a non-adjustable finnlight-esque stock (or something like that)… blink twice if I’m on to something there…
