Let's See Your Semi-Custom Tikka Builds

[Tanner]

Here’s mine in 7 SAUM:

UM action weight reduction
PBB Hybrid Lite 20” w/ 1:8 fluting
MTN Gear titanium bolt knob
Peak 44 Bastion
Sportsmatch TO84 rings
Trijicon Credo 2.5-15x42
Nomad TiXC

Weight as pictured is 7lb 6oz
Bare rifle is 5lb 4oz

Load development is up next but the ladder I shot with Cutting Edge 160s and RL23 went 0.5 for 10 shots. Can’t wait to get a load dialed for it.

That is very slick. Surprisingly light, the UM action lightening must be pretty effective.

Definitely not insignificant. The Peak 44 Bastion is like 6oz lighter than the factory stock and the barrel saved like 4oz. Action work was around 5oz total with the titanium bits.

I honestly think you could get one under 5lbs pretty easy with a Peak 44 Blacktooth and a 16” barrel of the same contour.

Thanks for the info.

I have a similar build,

T3x, 19” hybrid lite (no flutes) in a Stockys VG, 3-12 LRHS, in Sportsmatch rings, and it weighs 8lb 10oz with a 8oz Jolene Can. Sure wouldn’t mind getting it down to 8# with the can!

That’s an interesting life size mount you’ve got on the floor there too!

Yeah figured I’d do a life size with as much money as I’ve spent on that thing over the years
