    Tikka T3X TAC A1

    I run the BCM grip on all my ARs and now my TacA1. The Mod-0 does not have the backstrap and bolts right up to the Tikka.

    Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

    I don't see anything crazy. Two or three years of hard work and three or four 12 weeks cycles of 500mg of Test-e/wk and there you go. Maybe 4 week so of Var and the end of the last two Test cycles.

    Tikka Tac A1 with Bartlein Gain Twist Barrel

    Frank, you mentioned lowering the trigger pull weight but I thought the Yo-Dave spring will not work in the 2-stage trigger found on the TacA1. I would love to lower the pull weight on my 398 TacA1. How do you plan on doing it? Other option is the Timney Trigger I suppose.

    Rifle Scopes Why we spend so much on scopes

    I used to do this on ClubSI. It was a Civic forum. My friend and I would join and challenge them to race our riding mowers. It was a lot of fun for us. Not so much for them lol.

    Rifle Scopes SB PMii or Steiner M5

    I love my Steiner Military 5-25 MRS but with S&B's new pricing the PM2 seems like a no brainer. Today, I would go with my PM2. In fact, I am saving up for one right now.

    Rifle Scopes Why most of us have MIL scopes but accuracy is expressed in MOA?

    Thank you! You are right, making the US switch the metric system isn't going to happen. Most people have no concept of what a meter is. I remember my coworkers having a really hard time when we were working on European and Asian projects and all the dimensions have to be in in mm. It was a...

    Rifle Scopes Why most of us have MIL scopes but accuracy is expressed in MOA?

    No you are just retarded and can't follow the thread. I responded to a member saying that if we can't express accuracy in inches how would you do it that would better correspondent to Mils? I said to use 2.5cm instead of 1". It is my opinion that using the metric system WITH Mils is easier...

    Rifle Scopes Why most of us have MIL scopes but accuracy is expressed in MOA?

    Holy poop. No one said that Mils don't correspond to Inches. The numbers are simply easier with metric measurements. 3.6" isn't and easy round number like 10cm. All I said is that the metric system is easier to use with Mils than using inches. Its a better system to use with ANYTHING Sure...

    Rifle Scopes Why most of us have MIL scopes but accuracy is expressed in MOA?

    I understand that but they relate better to metric measurements than standard don't they? A mil at 100m is 10cm isn't it? No one describes it as 3- 15/16" do they? When you click 0.1Mil does it not move the impact 1cm? The point was, if you want to describe a rifle's accuracy in a language...

    Rifle Scopes Why most of us have MIL scopes but accuracy is expressed in MOA?

    Just say 2.5cm? Same thing. 2.54cm if you wanna be anal. The metric system is so much better I don't know why we are still using inches and feet.

    Timney Trigger For Tikka Finally Here!

    I didn't think the TacA1 two stage was adjustable. Not sure I want to mess with it.

    Rifle Scopes Good one piece mount, not spuhr

    I may get hate for this, but my Tac A1 has a Steiner Military 4-16 sitting in a LaRue 120. My OBR has a Steiner Military 5-25 in a LaRue 120 as well. Never a problem with either. My SPRish rifle has a NF2.5-10x32 in a LaRue 104. I have no complaints about any of those mounts.

    Magpul Pro 700 Chassis

    Sorry Frank, I saw your FB post about this a couple minutes after I posted the thread. If you want to erase it and start your own with better info please do so. Don't mean to pee in your Cherios. The chassis has a lot of options for the price but I do agree, the aesthetics aren't that great...

    Tikka CTR or Lite with Chassis

    Why not just get a Tac A1? Seems like the same receiver and barrel as CTR already in a chassis. CTR magazines.

    Tikka T3X TAC A1

    I got a Tac A1 in .308 this summer. I am a novice shooter when it comes to long range precision but I was able to print groups under 1 MOA every time. My wife was with me and has considerably less trigger time than me and she also was able to do a 5 shot group under 1moa. The rifle is awesome...

    Rifle Scopes No love for US Optics?

    Its not that it doesn't work, it's simply aesthetics. I'm an Architect so I'm insane. I look at everything and judge the form and the function. The B series scopes work, I just loved the look of the older ones. I loved the knurling on the magnification ring, the deeply scalloped elevation and...

    Rifle Scopes No love for US Optics?

    I miss the way the old USO's look. They looked like if you ran out of ammo you could beat someone to death with it and you would never loose zero. Honestly loved that looks. The form factor of the B series scopes just doesn't work for me estheticslly.
