Finally got to take out the Tikka with the 6.5 barrel on. I was strapped for time and only packed 100g VM. Suppressor to no suppressor no shift for this small sample and only this ammo. Only one outing but very happy! Thanks PVA.

Just picked some of these up in 6.5 creed. Anyone know the bullet length of the 6.5 100g? Search Fu not working. Thanks in advance.

Barrel is in. Waiting in ammo 😖 (Scope on just for the pic.. to low for the new barrel) Barrel in today and on today. Thanks, Phoenix Custom Rifles for the super fast install!

That would be fine with me. Saves me an ounce or two, I think.

Sweet! My barrel is on its way, can’t wait! Constant muzzle diameter??? Taperless?

I ordered one of the ones he has in sale. Rock Creek blank with nut or I would have done shoulder pre-fit. The pac-nor barrel weight calculator: barrel should be about 3.8lbs at 22”… There were a few I considered. Criterion X-Caliber Crown Ridge McGowen As much as I would like a Kreiger, Brux...

I think the barrel nut is 1.15 (tikka barrel I think) so the barrel will be smaller OD. I would assume when I selected “tikka” in the drop down they are built to fit flush with tikka I hope it’s not 4.5lbs at 22”… 4lbs ok.. 3-3.5 would be ideal for what I want. I’ll call PVA tomorrow

Placed an order for my tikka. Going from 308 to 6.5CM… I ordered a 22”, 5.5 contour. Anyone happen to know the weight and contour specs? I looked at the Brux site but they don’t list the 5.5 (I might of missed it 🤷) Not super concerned with the weight but would like to keep it under 13lbs...

Pics?

I’ve got a Tikka in a KRG Bravo as my “jack of all trades” rifle. I just ordered a PVA prefit barrel in 6.5 Creed. So far no real complaints! The action is smooth! Stock barrel is accurate but not threaded that’s why I’m changing it out. If your looking at a “budget” build the PVA barrel...

Don’t shoot many groups with it. But a buddy though I was BS-ing him with the previous group. The two shots on the bottom are from him his third one is somewhere down there… NSF!!! Haha Then I shot this group right after him. This has to be one of, if not the most accurate rifle I’ve seen in...

Trying out Sierra factory ammo. I would say shoots ok.

@BigScoot45 gtg! Easy and fast transaction.

Well…..I’m sofa king we Todd did! I should have listened to you. I’ve always used .8-1.0” rings / mounts and never really had an issue. Not that I could tell anyway. My wife stared shooting a little more now that she started hunting with me. My Tikka has a medium mount, I noticed that she...

Tikka, .308: His Havak HIT, 6 Creed: Hers Can’t wait to shoot this one tomorrow… we’ll, I can’t wait for her to shoot this one tomorrow 😁
