    Recommend a rifle to learn on? And why a PF action?

    What's your budget for the rifle alone? Only reason I suggest 700 to new comers is because.. If you like it.. Keep it and poor more money into it. You don't like it.. Easy to sell. Doesn't look good? Bedazzle the shit out of it. The opportunities are endless with the 700 because it's such a...

    TacticalRifles.net

    I think the focus is a little more on warning people to not use TR.net. Regardless of the items you purchase ahead of time. I agree that buying your parts and giving them to the smith is wise advise. However, in this thread... The point is even if I were to do that I would not be able to avoid...

    Tikka parts

    Are you referring to the Lumley? When you first attached the Lumley shroud it changed the performance of the bolt? I was planning on buying one of these when my stock shroud breaks. Wondering if there's anything to consider. I thought it was a simple cosmetic attachment that didn't affect...

    XLR Chassis for Savage?

    Put a picture of the chassis or rifle ( or both ) in a small box. With an awesome card. My family did this for me when they weren't sure what I wanted. Odd shaped box with 2 pictures in it. Obviously impossible to guess. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    XLR Chassis for Savage?

    Don't know why the site is down. Giving information based on hazy memory. I have a Savage 10 PC (non threaded muzzle). XLR was the only chassis system that was cheaper than 1k and had the bottom bolt release that I needed. Also the reviews on the chassis were great (after receiving and using...

    Looking for bore guide for Tikka T3 action in 308

    Hello Everyone, I'm looking for a bore guide that fits the T3 action in 308 that is relatively cheap. My main concern is I don't know which will fit the T3 in 308. I would buy the Possum Hollow #15 but that's back ordered until December on Midway. Was looking at tipton universal but read...

    Best varmint rifle from factory?

    Not pushing one or the other on you. Just showing some pros and cons on the price. Performance, in my opinion, will be the same out of the box. Price to price on just the rifle the Tikka wins. It has plastic bits. Can't beat that when going cheap. However, savage has a better backing on...

    Best varmint rifle from factory?

    My plan for a 223 was to get either Tikka Lite or Tikka Tactical. The lite because it is cheap as hell in comparison to the other Tikka's and the plan was to upgrade the barrel and true the action and threads and drop it into a KRG. What I've READ is that all Tikka's come out of the box with...

    XLR Chassis Stock

    I waited 3 months for mine and then waited 1 month more for the mags. Kyle is awesome and he kept me up to date on everything. He gave me the option of receiving my chassis first and he would send the mags later free shipping. Truthfully, at the time, 3 months was the shortest lead time for...

    Rifle Scopes Choosing scope power

    Bushnell has 4.5x to 30x, covers everything? :P I think 4-16x max is perfect for your situation.. I use to have 10x fixed and honestly.. it was more than perfect from 100 to 600 yards (but i'm a target shooter).. my brother has a nightforce that has max 16x (forgot the lowest setting on it...

    Savage 10 SA and Atlas Bipod

    Hmm.. honestly I do prefer harris because in my mind its cheaper and the standard in my opinion.. they do have all sorts of adapters.. I use a harris bipod that can swivel and find it more than sufficient for the 90 something i spent (i'm only a target shooter by the way).. but it seems you're...
