    Tikka T3 Thread

    Originally, this was a Tikka Hunter in 300 WM. It took a tumble from a 4-wheeler, and the walnut stock didn't make it, so I upgraded to a Bell and Carlson stock. I painted the stock added a Razor LHT 3-15x42 MRAD recently, which beats my NX8 2.5-20x50 in eye relief. I'm thinking of switching...

    Tikka 7mm PRC

    I plan on ordering a Mesa Precision carbon stock. I have not decided whether the inlet will be Tikka magazines or AICS when I cross that road. For the meantime, I will attempt to sand the channel of my Bell and Carlson stock to accommodate a sendaro profile proof barrel.

    Tikka 7mm PRC

    Thanks for the advice! I’ve been considering magazines that fit the same foot print of the Tikka magazine. I’ve run AICS before and while I like them, I’m hoping to conserve weight and cost — like us all I’m sure.

    Help with my new Remington 700 ADL varmint build

    What was your reason for picking EGW for your 20 Moa base? I've been reading up on them, but can't seem to find much. Nor can I find much about other scope bases. Of course I want to get a cheap one that works great.
