    MDT ACC Chassis

    MDT_OFFICIAL Does this chassis use the same mag inlet relative to fore/aft position and action as MDT ESS for a Tikka? I have an ESS and unfortunately for me it's relegated to running with my 6 Dasher and 223 Tikka build. The mag is positioned too far forward to make use of AICS mags sans...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Sixgunfab, I believe they're talking about CTR mags and the 'Notch Mod', you're running AICS mags right? Problem will be with mag catch and how it interfaces with the external mag catch tab on your mags.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Brentwinkey, You have the adjustment screw out too far taking preload off the stock spring. Minor manufacturing tolerances would explain why one is ok, the other not. I've seen this problem many times. Put a lighter gauge spring in, i use wolff mini coil spring pack from Brownells, find a...

    Tikka T1X

    Exact same triggers. I've got 7 tikka triggers all with lighter springs, I just use the wolff gun springs mini coil pack from Brownells and cut the springs a little longer then the standard tikka spring. I've probably used the kit to do about 20 or so triggers on mate's rifles including a...

    PRS Talk Negligent Discharges Need To Stop!

    If we apply this to a hunting scenario and one I'm familiar with, I'm shooting a boar across an oats paddock in amongst the farmer's stud angus bulls. Backdrop is a large hill. The nearest bull is 30m off to one side, none in the background behind the boar, I ND a round and although the rifle...

    Tikka 223 rifle build advice

    Unless you're set on using an aftermarket barrel a standard tikka varmint in 223 with 1 in 8 twist will likely shoot as well and save you some money and gunsmith wait time. KRG Bravo is also a very comfortable chassis requiring no bedding or aftermarket DBM. I use MDT polymer mags in my 223...

    Sterk bolt and t1x

    No it won't. I believe Sterk is in process of working on T1X goodies though! I'm sure he'll update on the Hide when he's ready.

    7 SAUM Shooters- Action Length Question

    Short action here. 180gr Berger Hybs at 2880 using Retumbo wirh a 27" barrel. Probably 100-200fps down on what a long action may put them out at. 2.950" COAL.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    All my tikka triggers are around 1lb. You don't need to modify the grub screw you need a lighter spring. All the tikka's I've seen having triggee issues have had the standard trigger spring with the grub screw backed out so far that the spring has nil pre-load. I've got a mini coil spring kit...

    Gunsmithing Tikka Tac A1 last round feeding issue

    I've got a CTR in 7-08. I've bent out the mag catch cutout in the mag as my mag would drop out of the rifle, that solved that problem. Wouldn't feed smoothly so I bent the mag spring which solved the feeding issues except for the last round. The tip of the projectile on the last round feeds...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I've got an MDT ESS chassis for a Tikka. You can't take advantage of longer COAL's as the inlet for the magazine positions the magazine further forward than any other chassis or dbm systems I run on my Tikka's. I'm not sure why MDT set it up this way but I've relegated the chassis for use on...

    I'd say nil damage done, just like fireforming for improved cartridges. You've probably just invented the next big 6.5 chambering, short neck 260 Rem. Just get a reamer ground with your name on it, I hear it may be the next wonder cartridge in PRS circles next year lol. In all seriousness you...
