    Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers

    Re: Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers I've been in the same boat as far as wanting the option of running a better long action. Again, just trying to see what the interest would be in having it done. Dave Kiff would be the master mind in making it work. I was hoping for a little...

    Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers

    Re: Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers The long action uses and different bolt stop allowing the bolt to come further back. Also it's the rear of the magazine that moves back, not the front. As for the fine details I'll leave that up to the designer, without a bit of time to sit...

    Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers

    Re: Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers I also have heard it for about a year now. I have and run a cdi and have nothing but good things to say about Jeff, but this would be made by someone else that every one knows.

    Tikka T3 bottom metal for long action calibers

    Built to take long action AI and Alpha mags, and under $200. Who all would be interested? This would most likely result in another option for short action rounds as well.

    Gunsmithing Tikka t3 w/ trg trigger

    Re: Tikka t3 w/ trg trigger I know it will bolt on, but I'm not sure it will fit the tikka stock. I did look into putting a 42 trigger on a trg-s and would have had to change the stock and bm to a 42 stock and hardware to make it work.

    Gunsmithing Sako Trg-s build questions

    Re: Sako Trg-s build questions USO used to make a rail, but I think near manufacturing is your only bet now. I'd run a 10 twist with a 225 hornady or a 230 Berger. A fat bastard from APA will tame it, but damn sure won't make you any friends at the range.

    Gunsmithing Sako Trg-s build questions

    Re: Sako Trg-s build questions TRG-S McMillan A5 in 338 Lapua. With the A5 you do have to use their BM and factory mag. The Whiskey-3 is a great stock and feels good when its available for it. Or one other pricey option is to buy a TRG-42 stock, trigger and mag. And it will all bolt right on.

    Gunsmithing 700P extractor issue

    Re: 700P extractor issue Put a mic on the rim of the snap cap and see if it's smaller than your brass. Could be thicker as well. Sounds like you have a snap cap problem not a gun problem.

    Gunsmithing Rear floating tang

    Re: Rear floating tang I ran into a problem with a Skunkworks action built by deffiance and a mini chassis. If you tighten the rear action screw alone it picks the whole front of the action and barrel up. Now anyone can see that when you tighten both screws the action will be in a bind. I...

    Gunsmithing Tikka T3 Pillar length and recoil lug dims

    Re: Tikka T3 Pillar length and recoil lug dims There may not be enough meat in the stock to open it up for a pillar. Its fairly thin on the front side of the rear screw. As for the recoil lug, the hole would be .998-1.000 and the outside would be 1.200 (IF) you turn off the radius at the...

    Gunsmithing rethreading a barrel for tikka

    Re: rethreading a barrel for tikka All the T3's are 1"-16tpi. There would not be enough meat left to turn them off and start fresh. You would have to cut the tennon off all together and start fresh. Basically set it back, slightly over an inch if I remember correctly. The TRG and Tikka...

    Gunsmithing 6mm crusader reamer??

    Re: 6mm crusader reamer?? Call either PTG, or George. If one doesn't have it I bet the other can tell you where to look. btw PTG is running 4-6 weeks on reamers right now.

    Gunsmithing DFW Texas Gunsmith

    Re: DFW Texas Gunsmith If it's a cdi, you can do it with a little patience and a file or hand mill (dremel). It's mainly the inside of the stock where the box of the DBM slides in that needs relieving.
