tikka bolt faces

[walkingduckwaterfowl]

Does anyone know of a resource or chart that shows which bolt face tikka is using in each chambering of their factory rifles and which cartridges are compatible with that bolt face?

I am looking into buying a cheap tikka somewhere just for the action but want to know which chamberings I should be looking at to ensure compatibility with my build plan.

Not specific to Tikka, but I have used this post in the past and found it to be accurate:

Bolt face diameter and calibers - for easy barrel swaps

Found this elsewhere and from looking at my shell holder reference chart it appears to be correct. Only difference is the shell holder chart doesn't state long or short action. Bolt face diameters cheat sheet Short actions with a bolt face .Dia of .384 +/- 17 Remington 204 Ruger 222 Remington...

I've read before Tikka uses 3 bolt faces: .384, .473, and .540. I did a quick search but didn't see a Tikka specific list of calibers that correlate with those sizes but hopefully that gets you closer to what you're trying to do.

The easiest thing to do would be to tell us what you plan to build and then we can recommend which Tikka to buy for the build.
