I have an Accuracy International in 338 lapua and recently purchased a barrel in 300 prc. Can I use the same magazines for both? Newbie question

Since no one will immolate their account & no one has recycled a username we need something for our amusement.

I was busy bothering one of the forum sponsors and it got me thinking…..we have a lot of really cool, approachable manufacturers on the site. What kind of hodgepodge build could you come up with to support as many hide sponsors?

I think id def use a @Terry Cross chassis, or stock.

Hello All,

I'm trying to figure out if I've got unrealistic expectations or if I need to get some instruction. I understand that the basics become more important as recoil increases, and I think I've got the basics down pretty well. I've got a switch barrel rifle, and when I shoot 6.5 Creedmoor, I'm a consistent 1/2 MOA shooter at 100 yards (on a good day, I've shot multiple groups in the .25-.35 MOA range), and I can hit an 18"x30" silhouettte at 1k 8 out of 10 if conditions aren't too crazy. When I shoot the 300 PRC, I'm shooting .6-.75 MOA at 100 yards and 5 out of 10 at 1K. I'm shooting a heavy suppressed rifle, so I don't feel like I'm flinching. Do I just need to get some instruction, or is there something I'm not thinking about?

I'm using Hornady ELD Match for both calibers.

Thank you!

Hi hide,I have been running a gen 3 Razor 6-36 on my 6.5C and at 1k and beyond I am starting to have trouble seeing hits.Guess the old eyes are getting worse.Would upgrading to better glass in a Schmidt pm2 or a Zero comp help?wanted opinions on anyone who owns or used these more expensive optics comparing to a Razor.selling the Razor I would still have to choke up 2k or better. Wanted opinions its worth it. 2k is alot of ammo. Thanks

So I managed to pick up a T1x ACE, 22lr 20" barrel. A few arrived into New Zealand last week and managed to pick one up.
This was a rifle I was very interested in (along with many others) so thought I'd share my findings, there isn't any good reviews out there, just influencer BS and people reading off the spec sheet.

Barreled action:
It's the same as every other Tikka model; trigger, barrel, bolt, bolt handle (don't even get a free rubber ball!), it's basically just a T1x MTR in a chassis.
I have a much older T1x with the original spring ejector, I never had any issues with mine but I know others did, this rifle is the new version with the fixed ejector.
I don't like that the ejector is just plastic molded into the magwell, not sure if it'll ever wear out or break but seems pretty cheap. I put 150 rounds through it and it ejects and extracts with "authority" so I guess it's not a problem, for now atleast.

I haven't adjusted the trigger yet so it's a little heavy but it breaks just fine, no creep or grittyness, etc.

The action feels nice, not as smooth as my old rifle (to be expected) but it feels nice an snappy, same as all other T1x I guess.
Barrel is same as other T1x models, will see how it shoots in time.

Chassis General:
All screws in chassis are T25 Torx, they provided a T handle wrench which is nice (the only other thing provided in box was 2 QD swivels).

Unfortunately I'm not really a chassis guy so don't have any real chassis to compare it to.
However first impressions are that it's pretty well thought out, has all the features I'd want, including many that I've not seen mentioned anywhere before.

The over all weight of the chassis is 1.641kg (3.6lb) so about .207kg (.450lb) heavier than a KRG Bravo (1.434kg / 3.16lb by my scales).
Although it's a bit heavier than the Bravo it's actually better balanced, which was a nice surprise although it doesn't help balance this rifle out in the end.
The T1x Ace comes with the shorter Mlok forend (0.304kg / .67lb), the longer 7 slot forend will be a little heavier. I guess they didn't use the longer forend as it wouldn't work with 16" barrels, but this model really should've included the longer forend and not even offer a 16" barrel in my opinion.




Forend:
The Forend is very securely attached. It has 4 screws on the bottom and the two QD cups (not just the screws) go through the forend and give it almost no slop, even with the 4 screws removed. I know people were worried about this, time will tell if it's good or bad but initial thoughts are it's well thought out.

There is a lot of real estate on the inside of the forend for additional weight, Tikka say weights will be available that fit in the Mlok slots, they are 200g (about .4lb) each, so the 7 slot forend will be able to fit 1.4kg (3lb) of weight which is a lot. However they should just offer a steel forend (since they are swappable) could probably get it to weight around 2.5kg (5.5lb) and still keep the Mlok slots available for more weight.
I doubt this would ever be offered, but could be an aftermarket option.





Butt Stock:
The butt seems reasonably well thought out, cheek piece is only height adjsutable with no obvious way to modify it to have any other adjsutment.

The butt itself is fully adjustable; height, cant, and twist? (no idea why this is an option).
Initial reviews suggested there was no cant adjustment which is not true, there 100% is cant adjsutment.

The LOP is adjustable via spacers, not many are included which is odd, also no other length of screw is provided, so if you remove the two spacers the screws stick out and you loose the tilt adjustment (which I'm sure will no upset anyone). Removing the spacers was kind of annoying, was easiest done by removing the entire butt (which is loosened by a single screw in middle of butt pad).

The bag rider hook thingy is attached via Mlok, a proper bag rider accessory is meant to be available at some stage, but as standard it's fine to shoot with.

Chassis center section:
The pistol grip is plastic and feels kinda horrible, I decent grip would be a nice improvement.
It is adjustable forward and backward, doesn't really seem to have any cant available.

The thumb shelf is simple but seems to work ok.

The replaceable mag well is probably the most interesting thing about the entire rifle.
You need to remove the pistol grip and the action screws to get the mag well off, it's a little snug but pulls off easily.
The barricade stop is actually aluminum and separate to the magwell, it slots into the main aluminum "back bone" so isn't reliant on the plastic magwell for strength.

I do like the ability to change the magwell, for centrefire I much prefer CTR magazines over AICS but the ability to have both options (when/if AICS is an option) is nice.
If Tikka ends up offering a XM (medium 3.2" COAL) AICS option it could make this chassis a really sweet option for running short mag cartridges for comp use, for hunting you'll be able to use the normal Tikka mags obviously.





Overview:
When first released my initial thoughts about this rifle was that it was a bit of an afterthought, it's like they designed the chassis 80% for PRS in the T3x Ace Target, 20% for NRL Hunter with the T3x Ace Game, and then thought well just make a T1x mag well and chuck our standard barreled action in it and call it the T1x Ace Target, as opposed to T1x Ace Game which is really what it is.

I thought there is zero chance this thing will be close to a PRS/NRL balance with that pencil thin barrel.... and well, yeah, I was 100% right.
If you buy the longer forend and load it up with as many weights as possible, put on a light weight scope, bipod, tuner/suppressor it MIGHT balance ok, but this rifle needed a heavier weight barrel.

I put my other T1x barreled action into the chassis and it balances just (as in barely) in front of the barricade stop, that's with a 25.5" medium plama (ish) barrel which weighs almost 2x (1.030kg vs 1.980kg).
Unfortunately due to the way the T1x action made you are limited on how fat of a barrel can be installed. 23.5mm (.92") is the fattest straight taper you could go.

Messing around adding weight to balance to rifle, I concluded a .92" straight taper 24" barrel would be needed to get it balanced ok.
Companies don't seem keen to offer super long factory barrels but I think a 22" or 24" option would still appeal to the "uninformed" buyers out there. If they offered this rifle with the longer forend and a 22"+ straight taper barrel then I think it would actually be a sweet option.
As it stands it definitely leaves a lot on the table.

The balance point with no weights added....




Final rambling thoughts:
Should you buy this rifle? Maybe, if you have a bunch of T1x accessories already then it may make a good addition.
However for the cost you could buy a 20" MTR and and MDT ACC Premier, which I'm guessing is probably the better chassis.
For people in Europe this rifle might make a lot more sense, but even in NZ an MTR + ACC Premier would be similar price to this rilfe.
If the rifle came with a heavier profile barrel for the same price, I'd say it was worth it, but otherwise I'm not so sure.

The interchangeable magwell and forends do offer the potential for this chassis to give some real flexibility, more so in centrefire but even in the T1x a steel forend for PRS and a light weight one for hunting/4 position shooting is a nice option to have.

Although it's not at all balanced (for PRS/NRL) the rifle doesn't feel heavy to carry around, so I'll probably do some small game/varmint shooting with it too.

While these aren't reloads, I'm hoping this forum is the best spot for the question. My son and I were shooting today when he noticed one of the rounds that he was loading (factory Federal Gold Medal Match 45 ACP 230 gr FMJ) had a split in the still unfired round. After checking the box in question and the two remaining boxes that I had at home, approximately 15-20% of each box had cases that were split. We checked the handful of spent casings that we found at the range and several of the spent casings were cracked. Is this a situation were I should just shoot them and know that more brass will go into the trash rather than the reloading bucket or do I need to trash every live round that already has a crack in the case?

This is NOT the adjustable model. Gap splash paint. Accidentally ordered 2 on their last sale, thought I’d see if someone wanted to buy it before I send back to Grayboe. R700 universal short action inlet, M5. Does not include bottom metal. $300TYD Sold

Any of you yahoos used them and have feedback ?

Does anyone have a suggestion for what arca m lok rail length fits best on a KRG Bravo 10/22 chassis. I was looking at the seekins 8"

Fuck.

I have a CZ Custom A01-LD RDS with SRO for sale. Excellent condition, any rubs in pictures are oil but I'm happy to facetime with it. Less than 1000 rounds

Comes with A01, SRO 2.5 MOA, installed LOK Palm Swell bogies grips, factory grips, factory iron sight plate, 5 magazines, box.

Looking for $2300 for the package.

So I need a realtime camera to mount facing behind my stands - I have decided I want to see all of the monsters moving behind me.
Because of course, since I don't see any in front of me, that's where they are.
Anyway - I'm to lazy to research the 20,000 or so camera options. For wireless cameras - if I use my phone as a hotspot, would I be able to use an ap (that most cameras come with) to view them real time? This would be offnet - ie, no internet or cell service.

Two things to note: I'm a cheapskate, and I am developing a hatred for technology in general. I don't have a lot of patience for technical tomfoolery.

Looking to sell my Masterpiece arms DS9 hybrid, black on black, i believe it is the aluminum a2 black grip, and medium red trigger. Pull weight is 1lbs 11oz, comes with rmr optics plate, dpp optics plate, accuracy x front and rear sight set, mpa soft case, 6 mbx magazines, a gx vise holster, and a sig romeo x enclosed emitter with circle dot. It also comes with a bunch of spare parts, recoil springs, dawson tooless guide rod, and some other stuff. Gun runs great, and i am going to regret selling this, but i dont use it enough. Has 2000 rounds on it.

I am looking for $3050 for everything transferred from my ffl to yours, or $2650 for just the ds9 with no romeo x.
