    Rifle Scopes Need advice on scope for new tikka T3x CTR in 6.5 creedmoor

    I am also looking at an SHV F1 for a hunting rifle. I think 14 power would be sufficient for anything you describe. I have a FFP Bushnell LRS that tops out at 12 and have had no problems hitting steel at 1000 yards.

    JP VMOS & SCS in suppressed 308?

    Looking for reviews from guys running JP's VMOS and SCS buffer system in a suppressed 308. I'm looking to upgrade to these in mine and curious about how it changed the recoil impulse and function. They will be used with a 20" rifle gas barrel and SLR gas block. JP recommends the "heavy" versions...

    DIY weighted buffer / BCG

    I added weight to mine because I couldn't get it to run reliably with a suppressor.....even with an adjustable gas block. The bolt was unlocking prematurely and my brass was getting beat to hell. Extra weight in the buffer helps the bolt stay closed a little longer so the brass can shrink back...

    Hornady Black Ammo

    2 of my buddies run it in their guns......a 308 DPMS and a 6.5 Grendel custom. They have reported great accuracy and function in both cases.

    DIY weighted buffer / BCG

    I ordered these and played with the weights in my 308 rifle length buffer. https://www.kakindustry.com/ar-15-parts/lower-parts/buffer-tubes-and-parts/buffer-weight-tungsten

    Remington actually did it...

    I got my Tikka CTR 20" 6.5 Creedmoor for 799.99 at Whittaker Guns. It was my 4th and the 3 before it are sub half MOA. Why get a sloppy Remington with an average trigger?

    Remington actually did it...

    I would still take a Tikka CTR with their factory stock over a Remington in a Magpul.

    Tips for running a large frame gasser?

    I was in the same boat as you with my 308. I was frustrated as hell when I first got it due to inconsistent groups. It would go from 1.5 MOA groups to .5 MOA groups all the time. I finally worked up a routine for shooting it that consists of getting square behind the rifle, getting the bipod...

    What bullet are you shooting out of your 260 and what kind of velocity are you getting?

    Serious bipods - Harris, Atlas, or...????

    I love Atlas bipods.....just got my 3rd one yesterday.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Just got my 20" CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor. I thought about getting the 24" but I have a thing for short rifles. This is my third Tikka....both my 7mag and 22-250 are easily under half moa and I expect the same from this one. Can't wait to shoot it next to my 20" 6 Creedmoor.

    New AR-15 build, what caliber?

    My vote would be for a 6.5 Grendel. It's a versatile cartridge with pretty damn affordable factory offerings. I was very impressed shooting a buddies to 700 yards. What problems is your friend experiencing?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I have a stainless 7mag and a blued 22-250. The only difference between them are mags and bolt stops because of the difference in cartridges.

    I got some Lapua brass for my 22-250 Tikka varmint. I dropped a grain from my original load and worked up again. This is 5 rounds @ 100 yards.....I always seem to pull one. This has become my favorite rifle.

    ReMage: Criterion vs Mcgowen???

    I had a 260 with a Criterion and have an AR 308 with a McGowen. Both were accurate with the 308 being a bit harder to shoot because of the platform. Both barrels seemed to prefer slower velocities.

    Best subsonic .300 Blackout commercial loading?

    Maybe the new Hornady Black ammo? https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/22883/HRNDY+BLACK+300BLK+208GR+AMAX+20200

    Went a little wild with my 308.

    I never got close to 43.5 of Varget or 4064 with Federal brass. Anything over 40.5 and I would loose primers on every case. Now I need to start over with the LC brass and see what I get. 40.5 grains if 4064 with 178's gave me a little over half moa. The same load in the LC brass opened up to...
