    Nickel Plated Hornady 308 Match?

    never shot hornady in 308, so I can’t say for sure, but the 6.5cm barrier round is nickel as opposed to the open air 147 eld-m round. I figured it was in order to make it easier to discern between the two, which it does.

    I’m on an Airplane ask me anything we got time

    I just meant it was a little impulsive to say it was an “all female unmanned crew”, when we all heard a guy on the radio. That’s all. Im fine with holding the pilot accountable, whoever it was. But call a spade a spade.

    Tikka T3 Barrel / Yuck

    Yuck is right. Clean it, ditch the crappy ammo, see where you’re at.

    Imported carbon fiber tripod (RT90C)

    Seems like it. I usually just buy the leofoto or Desmond ball head portion, but it looks like the ib-40 comes with the big 75mm piece too which would be redundant on the RT90c You could definitely get it done cheaper if that’s what you’re asking. RRS is the premium, but all the ball heads...

    Sig Cross vs Tikka, etc

    My 20” CTR is shooting 143eld-x @2500…. It’s also heavy as hell, which prompted me to build a lighter rifle and keep this one for varmints. My wife took a cow with it at 510y this year. The one I’m building is starting as a lite. I have a 24” 6.5prc proof carbon and manners LRH on order...

    Sig Cross vs Tikka, etc

    I would have a REAL hard time going with anything but a tikka at this point. I have CTR’s, a tacA1, a veil, T1x, I’m working on a new build from a lite, and I’ve had a couple superlites. If it’s in your budget, the ace seems pretty close to what you’d want. Generally, I like buying the cheaper...

    Barrels and lead times - worth it?

    I’m past 3 months for my proof carbon. I didn’t realize it would be this long. Luckily I’m also waiting on a manners that is a LONG ways out, so I’m not in a rush.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Its normally not mentioned, even on the ones painted black (usually just say ‘black’ for finish). For instance, all the roughtechs and veils are stainless according to tikka. And without being a metallurgist, I think even more of the ones painted black are also all stainless. Ctr, TacA1, etc Im...

    What if I told you, most of the ‘non stainless’ models are actually stainless steel underneath the cerakote.

    Manners LRH Discussion

    I’ll know in about 6 months I hope. After going through pics on the site with the very nice sales lady, she said I wanted ‘heavy’ paint, so that’s what I ordered. Apparently, they’re all getting more paint than the earlier ones. I swear I read 1.95lbs researching it, but I do see where you’re...
