The Raven: Unknown Munitions Tikka Clone action coming soon?

@Ryan Avery How much would you guess bolts alone will be?
With the understanding this a best guess and not set in stone.

I’m gonna take a guess that it’ll be $400-$500 for a complete bolt assembly.

Hard sell when a guy can buy a complete Stainless 6.5 PRC for $600 now from EuroOptic.

You might have just cost me 600 bucks. That’s too hard to pass up

I get that, but a bolt with interchangeable heads would have value for me. Let’s say I want to leave my 223 trainer set up year round, but during the off season, I’d like to take the barrel off of my 6 PRC and shoot an standard bolt face 6mm or 22 cal. That’s where it would have value for me. Tikka stripped bolt bodies are $200-$300.

Only if you're a righty

I called procision arms last week to ask about the interchangeable bolt faces, they said its more of a bolt body that you can change, different than how a zermatt bolt face changes.

 

[Deadspace]

I may have missed it but will this be available with an ARC bolt face?

This is the way… it cost me $677 with tax and shipping (and after a $25 coupon) to purchase a 20” 22 ARC prefit barrel and bolt face for my Seekins Slam M3.. Not to mention the money I saved from not having to buy another scope and ring set..

22 arc from December to August for training… 6 CM from September to November for hunting. Same rifle, two calibers within a < 10 minute barrel and bolt face swap with no special tools needed

UM will sell plenty of ARC bolts if available…

You can get a really nice Tikka bolt body from here https://www.prprecisionrifles.com/ I bought one to go from a magnum Tikka bolt to a standard bolt. It's only $350. Very nice workmanship.

Always nice to have another source. JA is cheaper tho for a OEM bolt body

Actually JA is a bit more, I think the Canadian source is higher quality and finding them in stock at JA can be iffy. I like JA and have bought quite a bit of stuff from them, it was the first place I looked.

JA is $299. Yours is $350. How does that make JA more expensive?

$350CAD?

350 CAD is around 250 USD.

This would be neat if you offered ARC builds (22, 6) because the process now requires either a bushing or a bolt opened up. That alone would be worth it- and if someone wanted a 18” 6arc with all the tikka benefits in a rokstok lite I’m sure would be a pretty awesome one gun set up.

And for the rest of us, just getting a 6arc bolt would be good enough.

I understood him saying that it was $350 USD. My bad
