    Kroil is great for penetration, I think any thin oil meant to get into the cracks would work. I did have to wrap on the wheeler wrench a little with a mallet but it was really a breeze compared to my first attempts prior to soaking in WD40.

    Anecdotal, but what kind of accuracy are people getting out of the 20" stainless CTR barrels? Got pics?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I did a long write up on this a while back. The best thing to do besides wheeler action wrench, rosin, and barrel vice is soak the barrel/action joint in wd40 or CLP over night. You would be amazed how far that stuff gets into the threads and makes life a lot easier on the Tikka. My last barrel...

    I already know how the gun shoots. It's a 1/2 moa gun, and lower with that load. The harmonics of a fluted barrel is going to perform a little different than a non fluted barrel. It may be as good, and work with my load, it may not, that's what I will have to test.

    Those are respectable groups!! Here is a group I shot with a load I kinda experimented with. Now granted if I saw my own post I might be skeptical as it's somewhat of a unicorn, that said, I would urge others to try this load and see what happens. This is from a stock Tac A1, with their regular...

    This is my experience. And speaking of Frank, he is the one the guys that recommended cleaning last with a Hops patch, my barrels have been rusts free since. After a good scrub down I loose my zero and it require 7-10 shots before the barrel settles back to it's last confirmed zero. If you...

    Anecdotal. I have found there is only some correlation between what the barrel looks like inside and how it shoots. Tooling marks, fire cracking, filiform erosion and yet this barrel still shoots sub MOA on my Tikka. I think only guys at the Frank Green level can make sense of this stuff.

    Question: Does anyone have experience with the 6.5cm 24" fluted Tikka barrels. The regular factory barrels shoot amazing, I wonder if there is any difference in witnessed accuracy, fluted vs non fluted?
