I'm seeing a theme here. I like it. Consistency is king!
I am a big fan of the McMillan Game Hunter and SWFA scopes! And of course, Tikka!

I'm trying to decide if I want to double down on the McM hunter for all tikkas or switch it up to something "more modern" (I guess?) like the Mesa or Game Hunter.

All nice builds - really like that first one al lot! If you don't mind my asking who do you use for the barrel work on those?? Looks like they do a great job.
My latest....
• Caliber: 30 Nosler
• Action: Tikka T3x
• Barrel: 26” Proof Sendero Lite 1:10
• Stock: Manners EH1-A
• Bottom Metal: RedSnake nEXTgen TRG Bottom Metal
• Cerakote: Tungsten (action and stock)
• Scope: Tangent Theta 5-25 with Spuhr one piece mount
Shane - yes sorry quoted wrong post but yes was asking who built your rifles. Thank you for the info!
10.2lb loaded with the optic and a 5rd mag
I went with AG simply because I could customize the options...finish and LOP mostly.
I was wrong in the original spec post, I'm running a 24" tube, I got it mixed up with another barrel I ordered.
3002 FPS with the can and factory Hornady ELD-X
Thanks Jon for the reply. Is this mostly a hunting rig or a long range shooting gun? I am asking because one of my fears is getting a 24in barrel + 7in can and having it be way to long to pack around in the backcountry.
Can anybody else weigh in on recommendations for a 6.5 prc barrel length with a 7in suppressor for a pack gun?
Thanks in advance.
those colors are rockin my word! so sick!View attachment 163223
I think I’m done with it for a little while
This is a rifle I plan to shoot matches with, currently running in at 15 pounds with the suppressor. Will have it rebarreled with a medium Palma next winter just to balance it out and add a bit of length and weight.
Marc builds a hell of a rifle and is a super cool dude as well.T3 long action set up
Rock creek 7.75 twist 8 flutes
MBM 4 port mini beast
Sterk TRG style shroud
Fluted bolt by LRI
Machine work by Spartan Rifles
Stock is a heavily modified Boyd’s, work and paint by me.
1lb trigger spring
Titanium bolt handle. aluminum knob that I made
Still needs cerakote and need to mount LRHS 4.5-18
