Let's See Your Semi-Custom Tikka Builds

How is that IOTA stock? Was on my list, but ended up with a Mesa Precision. May keep that in mind for future projects.

I like it! I like the ergonomics and how easy it is to get behind. There are some areas with the finish that could have been more refined but nothing that I would knock it for

What speeds are you getting with that barrel?

What speeds are you getting with that barrel?

2920 fps with the can on with 147 eldm over the top of h4831.

 

[NoCoElk]

I am anxious to shoot with my can on, factory ammo without I was getting a lot slower than I expected.

I only saw approximately 30 fps increase with the can. Factory ammo is only doing about 2800 in my rifle. Reloading with a faster burning powder helps significantly when running a short barrel imo

6.5 CM in KRG Bravo. I’ve been really enjoying tinkering with and shooting this set up.

I don’t see a left hand Tikka Bravo on the KRG website. Did you buy a RH stock and do some milling?

Yes, exactly. Works great.

I guess I will play.
I am DYING for someone to take this chassis off my hands.

Very nice setup. Dosent look like a ctr though. Barrel profile looks too thin and the bolt isnt nitrided like a ctr is supposed to.

Good call. Pretty new to the tikka world. Didn’t pick up on that. Previous owner had it listed as a CTR.

Still a hell of a rifle. And when you are ready you can put a heavy barrel on there and have the total package.

That’s the game plan.

I bet it’s a Compact, maybe that’s where the confusion was (Compact vs Compact Tactical Rifle (CTR)).

Anyone know, does the compact stock with the spacer = a full length regular stock?

 

[Antares]

Tikka website says LOP is 12.5" and that the spacer is 30mm (approx. 1")...

 

[Krumfola]

LOP on my compact stock with the spacer is 14”

Just finished my 20" 300 wsm. Probably switching the rings out for hawkins.
