    Sooo... We complain about that waves of people illegally coming across our border and the proposed solution is move the border south... Haha!

    Humidity control

    I have never mixed my powder. My first question would be are they from the same lot?

    Biggest unicorn

    LRP's can be found but usually for about 30 seconds at a time in random corners of the internet. That is definitely the tough one for me at the moment.

    Beginner - need equipment recommendations and advice

    You're right... You have given a +1 to someone else's post and come to OP's rescue twice. Clearly you have contributed more original thought to this discussion than I have... If you want me to arbitrarily name one for the OP I can, but I would rather speak from my experience and give an opinion...

    On that point I agree. It adds a headache that you wouldn't have otherwise. Doable yes but too big of a pain in the ass for me personally to pursue it. Especially given everything else that is available.

    Beginner - need equipment recommendations and advice

    Pick at least 3 and get them. They all have solid data that can be relied on individually but one might have data on a cartridge that the others don’t have, some might have slightly differing data from the others, and having multiple sources of quality information is NEVER a bad thing.

    Since I have no experience with Tikka myself, I took to the internet this last couple of days to learn a little more about them. I came across numerous statements saying the same thing but I also came across a video on YouTube that shows a guy removing his factory barrel. He put a torque wrench...

    A fair bit of deferring advice but a lot of consensus too. Honestly pretty much any of the options presented will work for you. I would also suggest asking some guys at your local range if they will allow you handle or even shoot some of their rifles. I have never had a problem sparking up a...

    Beginner - need equipment recommendations and advice

    In my opinion its because going down the progressive route while learning the process completely from scratch is a pretty big bite to chew right out of the gate. There is a lot going on at the same time. I single stage press can help simplify the process and help you learn the specifics that go...

    Well since you have already stated that you like the Tikkas and if there is plenty of aftermarket support for them these days, I would say go that route if you are 100% on staying with a factory action. Otherwise I would go with The Terminus Zeus but that would blow you budget. You mentioned...

    1500 for rifle? Or 1500 for rifle plus all the barrels you are going to need for swapping?

    Pressure Signs, Where do you stop?

    This... Primers by themselves don't worry me as some tend to crater way earlier than others due to cup hardness like previously mentioned. Its not until I start seeing primers + something else that I back off.

    The main question I think you should answer for us though is what your budget looks like. That should help us narrow down some solid options.

    I personally don't have much knowledge on Tikkas. I have shot a few but have never owned one. I mainly stick with custom actions and Remington because its what Grandpa shot and he was my favorite human of all time so its a nostalgia thing. What little knowledge I have on them an a quick...

    Has anyone tried Hornady A-Tip factory seconds?

    Perfect. Shoot those up for you fouling shots. Good to go!

    Bolt action build guidance

    If you are going for the ability to easily swap between cartridges as you mentioned, my suggestions would be to: 1. Go with a custom action that you can buy pre fit barrels for as previously mentioned. Or... 2. Go with a Remington 700 (since you mentioned you want to stick with a factory...

    question to see general thoughts on this

    Do what you want with your own property and don't apologize for doing so... The only exception to this would be if its a rare collectable item or historically significant in some way and even then its still debatable as its your property. If it was nothing all that special to begin with, turn it...

    I would start low and slow and NHPiper suggested but that's always my opinion regarding everything when experimenting.
