@EuroOptic
Any update on muzzle diameter?

I have the superlite ember from Euro optic in a 6.5 prc. The muzzel diameter is .65" and the threads are M15x1. The gun comes with an adapter to make threads 5/8"x24. I ended up putting a APA Gen 3 Micro bastard brake on which was available in M15x1 threads. Looks good on the gun

Do you have any 6.5 prc in the super lite available?

Mounted a new scope and UM rings, got it on paper at 50 yards and shot 4 rounds at 100 before moving to longer range steel. This range lets me walk out to the targets so no crappy scope phone pics. Target is 1/2" squares.

Looking good! What scope did you upgrade to?

NF NXS 2.5-10x42.

NF NXS 2.5-10x42.

Very nice! Looks like it’s shooting great for you. My starter package is the Credo 3-9. Working out well enough, maybe upgrade next year.

Picked up my 20” superlite back in June. Really impressed with this factory rifle! Now to get one in 6 creed!!!

Playing with it in a pure precision, carbon stock

Let us know how you like this stock if you don't mind. Did you have to bed?

The aftermarket stock? So far it’s been good the recoils impulse is a little more “jumpy” if that makes sense like a bit of muzzle rise

This tracks with the broad understanding on this forum - that the Monte Carlo design results in unfavorable recoil characteristics. The Mesa / Pure Precision stock is certainly poor in that regard.

the Monte Carlo design results in unfavorable recoil characteristics.

The cheek riser and (on the original Weatherby pattern stocks) cheek swell were major improvements facilitating a good NPoA with a scope. The design works well offhand, but fails once you add a rear rest.

Probably because with a rear rest the user actually notices the departure of the target from the scope's field of view ;-)

How long will the sale go for?

Pretty much indefinitely - or until I run out of rifles, which I doubt will happen as I have a couple hundred of each sku at the moment..

Good problem to have! I’ll be calling in once I convince myself the weight savings is worth it over the bergara

 

[DisplacedHusky]

We have not heard any whispers of 6cm, Tikka seems to be speeding up adopting new cartridges ( I wish sako would follow along ) so, maybe soon - I'll email my rep to see if he'll spill beans

Any beans to be spilled on a 6CM release?

No golden nuggets of intel yet - not that I can share at least. Lol
