Do you know how the wood is being treated/what it’s finished with?
The Tikka one is a poly, the MRC is oil. The stocks can be finished in whatever someone wants.

This might be a dumb question but you cant single feed this style of action can you?
Rokslide and Africa Hunting are currently feuding over the 6mm Giraffe video.Not to derail but this is available
For Sale - Left Hand Winchester M70 375 H&H with Echols Legend Stock
This one stings to let go of but it’s not getting any use and needs a good home. Left Hand CRF New Haven Winchester M70 23.5” Brux Stainless 1 in 12 twist barrel #5 contour NECG adjustable rear sight and masterpiece banded front sight with red bead Talley bases opened to 8-40 screw holes...www.africahunting.com
Despite my presence daily unless hunting I somehow missed this, my apologies.
If I were a lefty, I would buy it and rebarrel it to 6mm-375 H&H. And take it to Africa!Rokslide and Africa Hunting are currently feuding over the 6mm Giraffe video.
What you’re seeing is the nose ring cut in the DTAC projectiles. Check post 6 like he said to, he had it rebarreled to a 6 creed.If that's where the 176 Atip touches the lands, I'm doubtful that's a standard 308 SAAMI chamber. Good news for those of us that dislike all the 308 freebore.
In post #6 he's shooting 176 A-tips, so that's what got me confused. Now that I've had a cup of coffee I can indeed notice that's no 308 cartridge lol.What you’re seeing is the nose ring cut in the DTAC projectiles. Check post 6 like he said to, he had it rebarreled to a 6 creed.
Yeah his last point in post number 6 is that UM spun up an Ace barrel in 6 creed for him, lots of info to digest in this thread hahaIn post #6 he's shooting 176 A-tips, so that's what got me confused. Now that I've had a cup of coffee I can indeed notice that's no 308 cartridge lol.
Excellent update!
@Formidilosus , how similar is the trigger in that action to the pre -64 model 70? Have you tested reliability of it yet in comparison to factory Tikka trigger?

Prefit capable. That’s impressive. Is tikka the only other production rifle consistent enough for that?
