    Crazy scenario, why don't @redneckbmxer24 and @FuhQ just use the ignore button for one another and save us all the bickering....

    Night Vision New to thermal

    The answer to this is too simple. AGM Rattler TS35-640 - Feral Texas Outdoors has them for 3k with a three year warranty. QD mount makes it a simple thing to take off the rifle and scan, then when needed it goes back on the rifle in a few seconds. To me the thermal thing really comes down to...

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    I did send them a message on their chat window and they confirmed 223 was in the works, but didnt give a timeline.

    Search multiple phrases

    Is there a way to search multiple phrases? I often search the PX for items and would be nice to search more than one thing so I can refine my list and pin the tab. I typically use the advanced search > Search Threads, then select Buy-Sell-Trade in the forums to search. But in the keyword...

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    Anyone own a fluted Solus hunter rifle and have a weight on it? Was looking at the 6.5 PRC and 6.5 Creedmoor, one says it weighs 7.8lbs, the other says 8.92lbs. A pretty big spread so I was wanting confirmation.

    What rifle is this?

    It's a hunting rifle and is an excellent choice for that. Mine is 1/2" accurate and easy to shoot, not sure why people have any problems shooting them...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I think my proof 223 barrel is really settling in, shot my best 10 round group at just under 3/4" @ 100 with the 69gr Freedom Muntitions ammo. Good cheap fun.

    Accessories Try These - $20 AICS 5 Rnd Mags

    As an update, the mags work in my bravo but the initial fit was tight. The attached pictures show the area that was rubbing the bottom of the action. I actually just hit the bottom of the mag with my palm and it shaved off enough for the mag to seat. Then I sanded the area for a few seconds...

    Bolt action build guidance

    JA outdoors is a source for tikka actions and parts. Also getting barrels off the newer actions is a breeze.

    Tikka CTR mags to AICS mags

    Tikka CTR in a bravo using MDT plastic AICS mags here. No issues with feeding and no discernible difference in the feel of the bolt between the two for me. I have run the MDT 223 mags as well as the 308 mags without issue. I will get around soon to testing their 300wsm mags as well with this...

    Bolt action build guidance

    Agreed, starting over, The Origin would be the answer. The bolt faces and prefits as a pair are the main factors in my opinion. After having 3 tikka bolts fluted at LRI, it all adds up to the origin being the logical starting point.

    Bolt action build guidance

    I made my decision to stick with a short action because I figure with 300wsm i can take an elk at distance without issue, so a long action really wouldn't benefit me. I leave my rifle set up as 223 for cheap shooting, then change to 308 for the hunting months here in Texas. The 300wsm will get...

    Bolt action build guidance

    The issue you're going to run into with a Tikka is various bolt faces. I have one that I swap barrels with at the range (223, 308, Mag), but the hardest part was collecting the 3 needed bolts. I bought 3 seperate rifles, pulled the bolts and sold the rest for parts. I would think an origin or...

    Tikka T3x TAC A1 Barrel Replacement Question ...

    I’ve done 5 with the wheeler #1 and a mechforce vise. None took more than one smack on the wheeler wrench with a dead blow hammer. Had a friend fighting one the same as you describe, and same process took it off with one hit from the dead blow. Every time I think I’m hoping not to get one of...
