    Backstop Recoil Pad

    I've bitten the bullet and ordered one for a 6.5 creed Tikka. I'll post a followup in this thread when I've shot it. https://backfirestore.com/product/backstop/ What I like: Customized approach to flattening the recoil curve on the basis of energy delivered, vs an all-in-one approach...

    We have Gunwerks Clymr at home

    You may recall my failed efforts to entice Gunwerks to inlet a Clymr for Tikkas last month. Out of pure frustration I called the only other company who brags about stock ergonomics and paid them $1,349 to fill my Clymr-shaped hole. Allterra recently updated their $849 Tikka stock with a choice...

    WTS Wildcat Tikka Stock, Ultralight, LRI paint & inlet

    Chat at LRI built 7 beautiful Tikkas in Wildcat stocks, finishing out under 5 pounds 3 ounces for me and 6 friends. One friend dropped out, and I sold his barreled action, so I have one stock remaining to sell. The custom m81 woodland camo is stunning in person, the texture is fantastic, and...

    LRI built me 7 Tikkas

    I wanted to share a phenomenal experience with Chad & Kelli at LRI. Four years ago, 6 friends and I set out to build the lightest possible 300WM Tikka, for the purpose of being carried much and shot little. Admittedly, these probably would have been 6CMs if I had been on Rokslide at the time...

    WTS Viper Barrel Vise

    $65 on Brownell's, $45 from me. Only damage is cosmetic - burnished the black off the top near the bolt hole with a free spinning bolt. Has removed a dozen or so tikka barrels - no, it's not easy, but it can be done. The 4 screw design helps, as do lead shims. -J

    When the Cone exceeds the size of the Animal

    How does this get posted? How do these guys know how to make the most perfect stock geometry in existence, and fail so visibly to responsibly educate shooters? A lot of objectively bad pronghorn shots, under pretty ideal conditions, with very recent training. What's going wrong in the...

    Q Fix / Cross style picatinny interface stocks

    I'd like to buy a stock, with or without a folding mechanism, which is lightweight and interfaces via a pic rail at the butt of a receiver. I'd like it to be fully adjustable, light, and if possible skeletonized like the Q Fix or Sig Cross. I have an aversion to buffer tube style stocks on guns...

    Sold Sirui VA-5 Fluid Head NIB

    As-new Sirui VA-5 Fluid Head with box, carry bag, and accessories. Didn't know you have to slide the rifle in from the end, the ARCA doesn't open up completely like an Anvil. Killed it for me since I have adapters up front on my stock. Great for glassing. Used on a tripod in backyard once...

    As-new Vortex Vortex Razor HD 27-60x85 Spotter with box and accessories. Put it on a tripod in the backyard and just didn't like it. Went right back in the box. Nothing wrong with it, I just have a hard time with spotting scopes and thought this would be different. Has the arca foot, the...

    Trouble focusing spotting scopes

    Howdy, I have a bear of a time getting comfortable behind my Vortex Razor HD 27-60x85 angled spotter. Everyone seems to love that scope, so I'm wondering whether I'm the problem. Whenever I move that giant ring to focus, I move the glass enough that it blurs on its own and I can't dial it in. I...

    Spend my money: Amateur Custom Rifle Components

    Hello friends, I've gotten bored of swapping stocks and barrels on Tikkas. I'll be listing a few of my creations for sale shortly here. I'd like to undertake building my own "semi-custom" light mountain rifle by screwing together a pre-fit barrel, action, and stock. There have been a lot of...
