Tikka Nitriding

[khuber84]

Bolt flutes need be double radius to remove any sharp edges. Some machinist don't understand this. It likely will not save a net oz, so I'd opt out the flutes too.

Or you could do what I requested from them to ensure that it does run smooth, which is full nitride with action cuts, but leaving the bolt alone. No fluting.

No fluting nitride only that’s a good sign it is less likely to be an issue then.

I think so. Also it keeps the action sealed up more from debris entering. My Anti X gets all kinds of crap in the chamber when I’m bushwhacking through alders.
