    Tikkas are better than....

    I don't know if he had any others. One of them stood out to me and I looked at it. I noticed he had either 1 more and possibly 2 more behind it in the gun rack, but never paid them a whole lot more attention. I was just very distracted by absolutely everything he had. It was really exciting...

    Tikkas are better than....

    I have. He did have 2 or possibly 3 of the 202. I dont know if it was a classic or highline. Left hand. That's one of the ones I kept looking at and considered buying anyways. It did not appear to be an older rifle. It may very well have been new old stock. It did have some interesting...

    Tikkas are better than....

    I don't know the model number, but left handed guns had some left handed Sauer rifles in stock before closing. I would check with Rock Island. I'm sure they are still doing inventory. I wish I knew when the rifles would be posted. I will look and see if I have pictures. I took photos of some...

    Tikkas are better than....

    I have 3 of them. I was a long time 308 hold out. I spent alot of time behind 7.62 and thought it was one of the best cartridges. After shooting out the barrel in my M24 after 16,000 rounds, I sent it to Josh Kuntz at Patriot Valley Arms for a rebarrel. He asked if I was interested in 6.5 I...

    Tikkas are better than....

    Absolutely. I've heard good things about these rifles. I have no personal experience with this gun. But i do with many of their other products and they are top notch! It also depends on what you are looking to do with the rifle. The HIT is listed at 11.5 lbs whereas the waypoint is at 6.75...

    Tikkas are better than....

    I was originally looking at a Christensen arms, but after messing with the waypoint and hearing horror stories of some warranty/ customer service issues, I figured I would give the waypoint a chance. I'm glad I did. They announced multiple caliber options but originally only released the 6.5...

    Tikkas are better than....

    Not sure of this is sarcasm. Lol. I haven't made it thru all 6 pages of responses yet. I didn't actually check before posting that, I was going off of memory. I pulled up my notes. With factory hornady I'm getting 2606 fps in the Tikka. I am getting 2751 in the waypoint. So I'm actually...

    Tikkas are better than....

    The one I have is much more refined than my Tikka t3x. Both chambered in 6.5 creed.

    Tikkas are better than....

    Springfield Waypoint 2020. Cost me $1,800. Carbon fiber stock, carbon fiber barrel, 1/2 minute with factory ammo. Haven't even started to reload for it yet. 170 fps faster than my Tikka with same box of factory ammo and same length barrel. I can use a few different mag options, but...

    Custom vinyl decals

    I Google before posting. I was hoping for recommendations from individuals that experience with certain companies. Also, if anyone on here makes them, I would prefer to support a hide members company if possible.

    Custom vinyl decals

    Thank you everyone for the tips and input. I'm only looking at having a couple made. Probably 10 or less. I contacted one place but they have a 50 minimum order. It's not for a company, so I can't justify an order that size. It's just personal decals.

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    There is nothing saying that you can not use a shorter barrel for precision work. In its role I will most likely be 100 yards or less. Hence the 1-10 and the shorter barrel. It's not intended to be a long range gun. If that was the case, I would go with a different caliber all together...

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    Thank you everyone for the comments and advice. I gave serious consideration to BCM which was always my favorite and is my current duty rifle. I also looked at the Danial Defense and the Geissele super duty. I was not impressed with the accuracy of the Geissele rifles that I have seen...

    Custom vinyl decals

    Does anyone know anyone or a company that does small batch custom vinyl decals? I am a K9 handler and I'm wanting to get some decals made with my dogs name and a logo. I have found some that I might be able to make work, but I don't want to modify someone else's decals. Feel free to PM me of...

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    Serious question, I have have no personal experience with JP rifles. Are you saying that their Patrol Carbine is not a reliable weapon? I don't plan on getting a low mass bolt carrier or playing around with anything. I know I can tune the gas to the load, so in reality I can adjust it to be a...

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    I am giving serious consideration to purchasing a JP15 professional thru the ready rifle program. This will be used as a duty weapon. I owned and have built MANY AR rifles in both the small Frame and large frame variety. The problem that I have is that I have never purchased a complete rifle...

    What caused this primer failure?

    I had the same thing happen to me a few years ago. I no longer have access to the lot numbers, but I contacted winchester and gave them all the lot information and sent them photos of what happened. The had me send back 10,000 primers and offered to replace them with a new lot. I told them I...

    Defiance Tenacity extra bolt

    Outstanding! I guess I may have to wait till I have it in hand. I purchased it from Altus and don't have it in hand yet. Maybe they can give me the SN over the phone, I just don't want to chance anything.

    Defiance Tenacity extra bolt

    Does anyone know if there is an option out there to purchase an extra bolt for the defiance tenacity? I just purchased a tenacity in standard bolt face and black nitride. I was really torn between the standard and magnum. What I would really love is to have a magnum bolt that I can swap into...
