    6.5 Elk bullet

    I get to go hunt elk every 10 years. I read the 6.5 kill thread, all of it. I have a t3x 6.5cm that shoots 130tmk, 139scenar, 143eldx, 147eldm sub moa. I still can't decide what to take this fall. I'm ready to just flip a coin :( Has a 4-14 F1 NF SHV on it. Any help? Range is out to whatever...

    Credo 3-9x40 mounting length on a tikka

    Hi friends, I ordered a 3-9x40 green mil square credo and am wondering if anyone can shed some light on how far back you can mount it with UM or sportsmatch rings to still ensure proper ejection on a 223 rem t3x. I don't really want to use a rail and rings but will have to I guess if it's too...

    Mounting height UM tikka rings vs rail and nightforce

    I have area 419 rails on my t3x's. They add approximately .33" height from the base to the top of the rail. My question is: can someone tell me how much lower the UM tikka mounts (their chart says low for 50mm objective - shv 4-14x50f1) would be compared to the area 419 rail and nightforce .885"...

    139gr scenar replacement

    Hello friends, I bought 3300 139gr 6.5 scenars and am down to my last 270ish. I've happily shot them with 4451 at 2725 in my factory t3x 6.5cm.

    Shv and credo

    Hi friends, I'm up in Canada and swfa isn't really an option for me. I've read a bunch of threads and shv and credo/tenmile comes up often as reliable. I had bought several of the razor HD LH 1" scopes a few years ago when they discontinued them but after reading here I have no confidence in...
