    Factory Threaded Tikkas

    The 223 CTR is 5/8x24. They’re tough to find. You might be better off finding a cheap lite model as a donor and putting a threaded prefit on it. Otherwise you’re gonna spend roughtech or super varmint money. I had my superlite 223 threaded 1/2x28, but sold it when I found a CTR.

    .308 FTW

    As soon as I saw it, ‘he didn’t account for offset’….no way he meant to shoot the monitor. Glad it worked out

    Maggie’s The Woodchuck and Firewood Hoarders Thread

    You really have to pay attention to keeping the o-rings clean and especially the area where the o-ring touches the sides. Check it each time you put the caps on. My oil cap was leaking so I took it into the dealer. He cleaned off some tiny amount of debris, where I described above, and it...

    Which threads for Tikka Superlite?

    I had a similar predicament. Here’s another option. I ended up selling my ss T3 superlite in 300wm to a friend for $600 when I found a T3x veil 300wm on the forums….mainly to get a threaded barrel for a brake. I had that superlite a long time and always wanted to thread it to use my suppressor...

    K-Bars The Larue Battle Knife!!!

    What was the price? Says sold out. I saw it at shot show, and it looks like a nicely finished knife in-hand. Too nice for what i would do to it. Im more of an esee kind of guy. If i’m feeling fancy, a bm 162, which is like the larue’s ugly brother.

    Swivel stud to arca rail adapter.

    You don’t need a drill press. You need a drill, 3/4” spade (or forster) bit, 1/4” drill bit….that’s about it. The same night i did the tikka stock, i added t-nuts to a manners stock just like the video below, for a full length arca rail. It was easier than i imagined. Area419- Adding T-nuts to...

    Swivel stud to arca rail adapter.

    I just did this one last night. Thought it might help you. Tikka veil plastic stock. I used 5min epoxy and added 1/2-3/4” of epoxy to the ‘pockets’ in the stock to basically act like a big buffer, and strengthen the stock where the T-nuts are. I had to play with the spacing a little, so to not...

    Can you replace the sling swivel with a screw that holds a 2” piece of arca?

    Tikka 6.5 CTR any regrets not going 24”?

    Same accuracy. The difference would probably be 100+fps. I like my 20” 6.5cm CTR, but starting fresh, I’d go with the 24. I generally like to get the most out of a cartridge. The 24” wasn’t offered until the year after I bought mine. It’s not enough of a difference for me to sell what I...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Anyone know why manners only makes a couple tikka-compatible stocks? You’d think with the mini chassis especially, they would be able to offer all their stocks with a tikka inlet From what I can tell, there are only 2 or 3 for tikkas. @tmanners

    Looking For Custom Foam For Gunrack/Drawer

    Are you just wanting someone to cut out the shape of the shotgun? Or are you looking for a foam supplier. The post was confusing to me. why would it have to be ’custom hand-cut foam’?

    You won’t be able to feel a difference. I’m guessing you won’t find one, for good reason

    Death on the Range

    You did your best and that’s commendable. People die like that all the time, when they’re not alone. It’s never pretty. I’ve done a lot of CPR and it almost never works.

    Do you run a SunShade and why or why not.

    i don’t think you read my post accurately. It answers your question Of course lens caps would fit the sunshade. I wouldn’t want to 1) switch my lens caps to the sun shade on the rare chance the sun shade would help and 2) I wouldn’t want to use the sun shade all the time…like if I just left...
