Tikka stainless 6.5 PRC $600

[gman82001]

Thanks! I'm trying to order rings and rails and whatever else I need. I guess 30mm but I'm not sure how about height? And would you happen to know what rail I need for Tricer-RP? I know it's not a loved bipod on here but I ordered it anyway.

For the bipod rail I'm thinking the hunters rail 10/32" and long?

Looking to get everything from Unknown Munitions unless you suggest otherwise.

Don’t overlook sports match tikka rinks they mount on the dovetail and have been great for me

Looks like the price went back up and i missed out!

does anyone know what mage these ship with and the mag capacity? I’d like to order a few things like a vert grip and spare mag and want to make sure I get the right one

They come with just the 3-round magazine, afaik.

Can confirm it has the 4 rd mag that is not flush.

Yes, they call it flush, but it isn’t. That’s one thing I prefer about the Sauer.

It’s like this. Not at all flush, and not like many other Tikka factory “flush” mags. Date of manufacture 2024 if that matters.

Looks like I got in just in time! Mines already shipped too!

There’s another mag that sits flush and works great, I’ll see which one it is when I get a chance.

So is it the L mag for 300win mag? I just want to grab the correct one. My rifle will be here tomorrow but I’m impatient lol

As far as I know, Tikka only makes the 4 round version in 6.5 PRC, and that's what I'd expect the rifle to ship with.

If you want a flush-fit 3 round version, the L mag will work fine and not limit you on length. I have ran several hundred rounds through my 6.5 PRC with each of those two types of mags without issues. I'm hand-loading mine with a COAL of 2.980 and they fit in the PRC magazines with a good amount of clearance.

I'm not sure which bolt stop they ship with, but you could run into an issue there with L magazines if it doesn't have the long action bolt stop.

Nope I’m not picky on it being flush I just like to have a spare ready to go for any bolt gun with a mag so this works perfectly, thank you for all the help

If you watch the EO site, you can see the price fluctuations. It jumps back up a little every time someone buys a rifle. We’ve bought three of the closeout rifles and it happened every time. They do go down again though at times.

Edit: also check for coupon codes.

the regular magazine for a 7mm Remington or 300 Winchester works just fine for the 6.5 prc too

I get all warm and fuzzy just thinking about how happy everyone's wives are going to be with their new 6.5 prcs for Xmas

The key is having your birthday on christmas so I tell the wife I want it and she says "its for your birthday"

My tracking shows it will be here for Happy Halloween!

 

[gman82001]

Picked mine up today from the Ffl ( put a s&w 357 mountain gun on lay away while I was there)
Going to get it cleaned and mount a zeiss v4 I have already in some sportsmatch rings and see how it shoots the Hornady match 147 hopefully tomorrow

If anyone else wants to swap me a standard bolt for a magnum I’ve got one…

That Hunter's rail, short, bolts right up to the Tikka with the existing stock screws, easy. I used that combo with the Tricer bipod last week on our cow hunt. I have UM Low Tikka rings for a 42mm NF scope and there's plenty of room for the NF so assume it'll be fine for the 42mm Trijicon.
edit: I didn't realize there was another page and replied to some old posts, oh well.
