Show your Tikka ten round groups

Tikka t3x 6creed
Krg echo
Magnus s rr

Gotta be the most shootable/affordable stock Ive ever tried. The stiffness on the echo isnt quite there but for $350? Ill throw this gun in the mcmillan LR tracker when I get it to see if the groups can tighten up at all.

I always manage to mess up one shot out of the 10. I came down 0.3 mil from first to second target. That’s a 1.5” dot for reference…

Here’s two 10 round groups through my Cz457 at the Lapua rimfire test center. Both groups individually at the top and then the 20 round group is the larger target. And then the same exact groups but measured at 100m instead of 50 (laser range tests both consecutively)
What a cool process. Will be back once I get a new llija or similar barrel for it.

Tikka T3x lite 270 Win with a Harvester Evo and a 3-10 SHV. 10 shots of factory Precision Hunter into .973”. @Jimbee sent me this barrel for the cost of shipping and it now has well over 1000 rounds on it. What a guy!

P.S. this barrel is threaded 9/16th and it has an adapter up to 5/8ths. It’s threaded at 22”. No issues whatsoever.

Tried some neck tension tests with the Tikka 223, apparently this thing just doesn't care and keeps stacking groups together. The more i read of @Formidilosus, the more seems to be true, choose a load, shoot it and roll on, barrels shoot or they don't. This barrel is also over 2000 rounds with no cleaning, nothing has ever been in the bore.

Are they “Tikka groups” if it’s a Proof barrel?

Tikka w/ 20” Proof CF barrel in .308 Win
168 A-MAX Hornady Black factory load
KRG Bravo
NXS 2.5-10

0.8-MOA 10-shot group at 100 yards


1-MOA 10-shot group at 491 yards

223 CTR

AAC 75 gr Sabre ammo. White square is 1”. 10 at 100 yards.

 

[waspocrew]

Same CTR 223.

AAC 62 gr Sabre ammo. 20 rounds group at 100. Nothing incredible. Mirage from the barrel was definitely present.

This one might have only been 8 rds, might be 10? But it’s really good for a factory 6.5 CTR barrel shooting $1.20 factory Norma 130 gr match ammo. Just slow and inconsistent velocities. Think it was SD around 19 and ES in the low 60s over 20 ish rounds.

[Lawnboi]

Pre match dasher zero confirmation. There’s 10 there.

New lot of varget and fired brass meant a .1mil adjustment

Tikkas were hammering today. Bought a few new rifles over the winter and finally got around to shooting groups.

Rifles shot
T1x .22LR in a krg bravo with an sig srd22x shooting 40 gr wolf extra match subs. SWFA fixed 10x
24” UPR (CTR) 6.5cm with a TBAC ultra 9 gen 1 in a KRG Bravo @wind gypsy recently sold me. Topped with a nx8 2.5-20. 2k+ out of this thing and it still absolutely hammers shooting 147 ELD-Ms.
20” CTR 6.5cm in a KRG Bravo with a AB Raptor 8. Topped with a Maven RS 1.2. 140 gr American Gunners shot ok but also hammers with 147 ELD-Ms
20” CTR .308 in my old Tikka UPR stock. Shot with the same AB Raptor 8. Topped with a NXS 2.5-10. Shot 175 gr SMKs and 168 gr ELD-Ms and it hammers

Bonus - all the mk12 hype got to me and I built a wannabe off an LMT with a OCM-5. Topped with a VUDU 1-10 which I’m not loving for precision work but rifle shot pretty well with razor core 77 gr and black hills 77gr

Enjoy!

All factory ammo btw

Tikka CTR 24" barrel 6.5 CM. 143 ELDX @ 2940 FPS

 

[Castle Rock]

That’s really fast

 

[NWBLKTAIL]

Creedmoor or PRC?

Tikka CTR 24" barrel 6.5 CM. 143 ELDX @ 2940 FPS

nice, how are you getting that velocity in a 6.5 Creedmoor?

 

[HighUintas]

I'd like to know as well. I had a 24" Tikka 6.5cm with 147eld going somewhere in the 2700s, maybe almost 2800, with staball 6.5. accurate as hell. But it was also real hot. No pressure signs but it did crater primers. Was using rem 7.5 SRP

 

[luke moffat]

Creedmoor or PRC?

nice, how are you getting that velocity in a 6.5 Creedmoor?

Been using this load since 2017 is a couple 6.5 Creedmoors. Lapua brass, CCI 450s, RL-26. Though I've found RL-16 is within 30 FPS of what RL-26 got me so I save my RL-26 for my WSMs now.

 

[david2duck]

Bought a barreled action off the classifieds in 6.5PRC. Barrel is a PBB. 10 shots at 57.5gr N565, 156, new ADG, Fed 210m, SD of 3.6 over the 10 shots.


Adjusted the scope and shot 3.
