    Remove barrel for threading?

    I'm confident you'll find most thread with barrels through the headstock rather than between centers. Typically there will be a minimum barrel length where anything under requires removal of the receiver to allow use of a dummy extension and anything over the minimum can be done with the...

    I would be interested in buying a pound or two of varget if you'd consider selling it. I'm in Mercer County.

    Tikka T3X won't properly fit into KRG Bravo?

    Based on the pictures the receiver is not seated on the recoil lug which may be contributing to the bolt binding.

    New rifle.....New Shooter....tikka gets it done!

    AngleOfAttack, drew_235 is correct. Check the angle between the top of the chassis and receiver (use the point on the receiver created by the intersection of the two flat faces on the receiver for reference) . In the pictures you posted you can see that they are not parallel, which indicates the...

    New rifle.....New Shooter....tikka gets it done!

    Nice work! You may want to double check to make sure that your receiver/recoil lug are seated it looks like something is off there.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I have a krg bravo on my ctr and hunt with it regularly. It's a little heavier than the Tikka stock, but ergonomically and structurally it's much better.

    Turned off my phone update - latest google / Apple Covid narc software

    Maybe I missed it, but how is a phone of a COVID infected individual aware that they are or have been infected? I'd think that would be the first requirement?

    Hellfire brake not threading on freely

    Sorry, I should have quoted your post with the pictures in it. But yes, it looks like that thread profile is not correct. If you put a thread pitch gage against those threads I think it would be pretty easy to see.

    Hellfire brake not threading on freely

    Could just be the picture, but that doesn't appear to be a 60° included angle thread. My bet would be that the compound was not set to 30° when the threads were cut.

    SOLD SPF: Tikka T3x CTR 6.5 creedmoor 20” w/ 24” barrel included as well

    Nice rifle! Purely out of curiosity, how does the stamping on the barrel line up on the barrel that was not fitted from the factory? I swapped a 7 mag and 300 mag barrel and the one is completely upside down. It headspaces fine, I am just looking for another data point..

    Cracked Spuhr mount

    Threaded fasteners lubricated with anti seize have a different coefficient of friction when compared to fasteners lubricated with oil or thread lockers (which are pretty comparable). Most torque specs indicate dry or lubricated conditions. If you are going to use anti seize it is a good idea to...

    Gunsmithing Anyone built a bolt action 458 Socom?

    Make sure you take a look at the out of state license cost for Ohio if you aren't a resident. I know that deterred a lot of people in 2019.
