New fav: Tikka 14” 22 creed with OG suppressor

[hereinaz]

I have been going shorter and shorter over the last few years. I mistakenly ordered a 14” 22 creed barrel, but it was a “happy accident” like Bob Ross used to say. It’s been fun to shoot.

I went ahead and got a stamp to me this action and SBR, and now I have an OAL of 38 inches with an OG on it. Haven’t gotten to shoot it with the OG, but I am digging it.

Here is chrono data for the Hornady 80gr ELDm factory ammo. It’s good to 700 yards…

As soon as I have some items sells, we will be discussing my new barrel from you.

 

[teflonhunter]

Cute.

 

[The Harbor Master]

That looks silly and awesome, simultaneously.

 

[MuleyFever]

Serendipitous for sure.

SBR bolt actions are so freaking fun. I am enjoying mine.

Looking forward to shooting it this week

 

[AZ_Hunter]

Cool. I bet it will be loud though.

Wear earpro when you shoot it suppressed

I’m doing the same thing with my tikka 223 and TBAC ultra 9

This reveal has the right side of my brain thinking about a 10" barrel with a Scythe Ti.

That is 10” of barrel showing, so factor in the barrel tenon.

I have a 12” 223 Wylde barrel, and am kinda bummed I don’t think the OG will fit on it.

I really love shooting my AR 15 SBR, so I was stoked to make this one. It really is fun to have a short rifle.

how is the bark on it? thats a pretty large case, but being .223 might help tame it down.

It’s nothing, cause I only shoot it with a suppressor… but it heats the suppressor up a bit faster being that short.

Been wondering what to do for my next rifle…

Now I know.

Sometimes you gotta swap barrels in the field before the sun comes up



And the 14” 22 Creed sure looks good shooting off my Teratorn.

With the OG can on it, and laying prone with my face right next to the rifle, with my Otto in ears, it wasn't bad.

The OG has a very noticeable "low" tone to it which helps make it "seem" not as loud. Shooting side by side with my 22 Creed with a Polonium K 5" in front of barrel 6mm CAN, and 20" barrel, my gun is noticeably "louder" and much higher pitched, making it seem far louder even if the "DB's" are somewhat close between the two guns.

Here's my Howa Mini 6arc at around 10-11" with a raptor 8. I don't know that I would want a cartridge any bigger with a barrel that short- particularly with that scythe

There's something here about "ribbed for pleasure" but I can't hate enough to find the setup for that joke
