So I have jumped on the TIKKA bandwagon in a big way (for me anyway) in the last few months.
At the beginning of the year I didn’t own a TIKKA, NOW?:
Fun part? Not one of those barreled actions is in the factory stock. Last night I switched them around…putting my heaviest caliber (.308) in the CTR heavier stock (thought was to minimize recoil). Then my .223 stainless barreled action got the lightest stock which is aftermarket. The 7mm/08 then was placed in the RoughTech stock with the Limbsaver pad…again thinking about recoil…
Finally, my new to me Tikka 1x .17hmr went into my rattle-canned compact stock.
Now all I need is .308 CTR mag..,only CTR mag I have is .223.
All these were done and hand torqued in about 15 minutes. I’ll put the torque wrench on them and shoot them in a few days…it will be interesting to see how they shoot!
All this with one tool…
