How many rounds do you have in that 300WM? Have you ever cleaned it for copper?

The bolt doesn’t always pick up the next round, like the mag sits too low. When it does grab a round, it tries to feed at too steep an angle; bullet nosed too high. I’m gonna play with it some more and see if I can correct it. Right now, I’m kind of regretting not getting the CTR Mag version...

Took my Tikka to LRSU over the weekend. My MDT polymer AICS mag didn’t work worth a damn. Had to single feed every round.

My rifle prefers the 17 grain bullets. Couldn’t get the 20s to shoot. Marlin 917V

It’s a new stock

Of course it would. Any ideas on a torque wrench that would fit between the scope and tang screw? Wheeler Fat wrench won’t fit.

Any ideas on how to torque this tang screw without removing my scope?

Almost done. Not sure if I’m gonna like this Bravo. Haven’t shot it yet, but initial impression is that I like the original stock better. Maybe it’s just because I’m more used to a traditional stock. Any tips on how to set the cheek riser and LOP?

Done

Getting close. Still got to bore sight it, and install a bubble level. Weighs 12 lbs like this.

How do the polymer MDT AICS mags compare to the stock CTR mags, when used in a KRG Bravo?

Not at all, if you have a heat gun. Could be a bit more difficult to use a torch or clothes iron. My son had a heat gun that worked beautifully.

I don’t know much about AR-10s, but this one looks interesting: https://www.cabelas.com/product/SAVAGE-MSR-LONG-RANGE-CENTERFIRE-RIFLE/2465044.uts At any rate, I think the barrel quality will determine its accuracy.

Got the factory rail off today. It took about 5-7 minutes with a heat gun at 800 degrees. A little wiggling with some vise grips and it came right up. I’m not sure how to get the residue off. Gonna have to figure it out before the new Area 419 20 MOA rail shows up next week.

Stupid question for my fellow Tikka owners... Is there that much difference, or advantage to using a 30 MOA rail vs a 20 MOA? Scope is Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 5-25X50, Tikka 6.5 Creedmoor 24" barrel. Use would be learning to shoot long range 1000-1200 yds ~
