I wonder if someone could 3d print some shims to make the viper grab better on the tikka profile.

Probably exactly what it needs. Wish I woulda done a bit more research before buying mine lol

At $80 I torque the crap out of it until it bends a little with reckless abandon.

I am going to cut it in half for the next one like Lobo demonstrated in that other thread.

The thought crossed my mind as I was MFering it

I used leather this go round instead of the Sheetrock tape and wasn’t impressed. But that was also Remington vs tikka.

We used two rows and 2 wraps of drywall tape on Saturday and it still went all the way thru. No marks tho.

I used real estate mailers (giant post card) last time.

Tried blue painters tape the first time. That was dumb.

They (viper) need to make inserts so we don’t have to do that anymore…
