Is the shorter barrel second from the right a 20” 1:8 twist 243?

I'm reading 308 on the tag.

Ya I’m seeing 22” barrel on the tag, not 100% on the cartridge

They don't appear flared.

They don't appear flared.

They are... It's a gradual flare.

Very exciting. Wonder if they'll thread youth models so we can get shorter barrel options with just a stock swap.

Anyone seen the standard SS Superlites with threads yet?

Those are lites… I think he means the fluted superlites

Looking for a 300WSM

From what I saw in a store, a mix of magnums and old school stuff like 308 and 30-06, all had 22" barrels except 308 being 20".

I know that 243 is available in 20"... I've seen one for sale but it was a blued barrel and not in a store. A factory takeoff.

I picked up 223 with a 20” barrel a week ago. The ad on Scheels website said 22” barrel but luckily it was actually 20”.

Mine got in this week, same thing.

The supplier for my shop in the mid Atlantic finally has them listed, but none in stock yet. Have a feeling eurooptic will get the first ones in the east based on their current sales

I looked this morning and Eurooptic is starting to list the new Tikka's on their site. https://www.eurooptic.com/tikka-t3x-lite-stainless-synthetic-308-win-22bbl-1-10-5-8in-x-24tpi-synthetic-st

Anyone know actual weights on these new rifles with threaded barrel? Assuming the muzzle flare only adds an oz or 2, but would be nice to see a few real world weights.

Finally received my 16” 223 from kygunco and it weighs 5lbs 14oz. Not sure how that compares to the previous non threaded version though.

I actually think the way they did the flare looks dumb and adds unnecessary weight but I’ll probably buy more haha.

Since they're already out in the real world for purchase, it would be nice for Beretta/Tikka to put accurate details on their website...

Not a gunsmith here... why did they go with the flare? I mean, I understand wanting more material to offer better shoulder/more meat to thread. But my impression was the roughtech and veil models are threaded, but no flare. What's the difference?

Roughtech and Veil have heavier barrels than Lite/Superlite.

 

[Halligan]

@The Harbor Master iirc Models like the ember had a heavier barrel contour. Others either used a smaller thread like m15, or the barrel belled right at the end

Well. That now seems obvious, lol. Thanks.
