I decided to go the route of having LRI spin up a 6 creedmoor barrel. I am also considering new bottom metal but haven't pulled the trigger on that yet.
Can anyone tell me of the bolt for the 6.5x55 will work on the 6 creed? I assume it will but would love some assurance for someone in the know.
I have been on the lookout for a factory take-off but haven't had any luck. Just can't decide which way to go. I am leaning toward buying a separate 7 PRC and then using my manners stock and tikka action to build a 6 mm.
I currently have a 2015 6.5x55 Tikka T3 hunter that has been bedded in Manners EH-T which has served me very well over the years (roughly 2500 rounds). It has been a tack driver out to 800 yards but has begun to lose some accuracy but still shoots sub 1 moa (pics are from 2 years ago to show...
I recently purchased the K4 frame and was debating between the 2200 and the 3600 and was about to pull the trigger on the 3600 for the versatility of allowing for some 2-3 night trips as well as a very functional day pack. Ultimately I decided to buy the 2200 AND the 5000. That said if I was...
New to Exo (coming from sawtooth 45) I just purchased a K4 frame but have not yet decided on which bag to run. Since 95% of my hunting is day trips I was leaning 2200. If I do a 1 or 2 night trip I am thinking a dry bag would suffice. However that really limits ability to pack out meat...
Unfortunately it is not an issue of not extending all of the way through the 3 detents. I wish there was a way to include a video as it would more effectively demonstrate the issues I am having with both sets of eye cups. Zeiss as offered to take a look at them and address the issue but I am...
I could look to move down to 8x42 to get additional eye relief although I would prefer 10x42. In 8x42 the conquest has 18 mm but that doesn't address the sticky/and what I would deem as terrible ergo of the eyecup functionality and reliability of the HDs. In the trinovid 8x42 I would get much...
The listed Eye relief on the Trinovid (15mm )s less than that on the Conquest HD (17mm) and I need more eye relief (or at least more usable eye relief) for when I am wearing glasses.
I recently picked up some conquest HD 10x42s at Cabella's Black Friday Sale at a good price (was unable to try them in store as they had none in inventory). I immediately noticed the eyecups were horrible. They were so stiff and gritty they would twist off when trying to extend. In addition...
