    Case splitting

    Had you ever shot this rifle before cutting it down? If so, what results did you get. I would hope your smith removed the barrel for cutting on a lathe rather than by hand. If he did, the head space problem lies with him. That's why I asked if you fired the rifle out of the box. Many shooters...

    Why bolt???

    The real difference is tolerances. Quality bolt guns are inherantly tighter in all respects. I build both AR's and bilt guns? Yes you can get a "match grade" AR, but they tend to be more expensive than the Tikka. If this were not the case, there would be many mor AR'S USED PROFESSIONALY than...

    Would like input on new .308 bolt gun to buy

    Guess what it comes down to is $5,000 + vs $2,700 for the same performance. So why complain that the mags cost more?? Go figure.

    Actually, few to none. Every rifle has it's fans that will stubanly refuse to accept it's downfalls, one of which is extreame pricing. Many of these come from being designed as a multi-roll weapons system for milatary applications. None of which are needed in civilian applications execept one...

    Can someone help me determine why my new build is giving me large groups?

    Agreed! I would NEVER use a pencil barrel on any rifle. They are great for weight savings but you WILL give up accuracy in most cases. A poney can't do the same job of a horse. Proper break in applys to all barrels. Good luck.

    Really not diffacult. For out of the box acuracy, quality, reputation, and high user ratings, you will have a tough time beating the Tikka T3x or CTR rifles. For a little more cash the T3X Tac A1 is increadablie. Best price around is from eurooptics.com
