    Long Rifles Inc?

    I also tried calling on Friday, same thing, phone went straight to voicemail, and you couldn't leave a voicemail. So it seemed like a pattern. Whatever that was about, it is what it is, and I was able to talk to someone.

    Long Rifles Inc?

    Well I tried to call several times, phone still going straight to voicemail. Waited a while, tried again and ended up getting through, spoke to Chad, great dude, he is taking care of everything. Thank you!

    Long Rifles Inc?

    Has anyone had contact with Long Rifles Inc. lately? I sent a bolt to have fluted two months ago. I was being patient because it was a unique bolt so I understood it would likely take longer than their quoted 21 day turnaround. I called after they had it for four weeks, they said no problem...

    Help from a Zermatt action owner please

    It's got quite a bit to do with it. How the trigger times with the action, trigger weight, etc. As an example, I had a Timney Calvin Elite on my action until about 3 months ago, a trigger which I understand does not time very well with the origin, and the bolt lift is substantially lighter with...

    Help from a Zermatt action owner please

    My Origin is just under 3lbs best I can measure. That's with a Triggertech Special set at 1lb-3oz and Zermatt's tactical bolt knob. The action is decently broke in. Probably 1200 rds live fire, thousands of dry fire.

    KRG Echo Chassis

    Definitely intrigued by this. For a long action Tikka hunting rifle, I like the idea of using the factory mags, they are low profile, lightweight and they work. I get everyone wants AICS, I usually do too, but this will be a nice option at a pretty amazing price point.

    Tikka T1X

    I shot an Nrl22 match yesterday. I only used the NDR mag. 8 out of 9 stages it was flawless. On the last stage of the day the first round took a nose dive into the feed ramp. Pulled the mag, pulled that round out and then it ran great. I've had that happen once or twice with my factory mags too...

    Tikka T1X

    I have, full disclosure it was only 30rds running ammo through it and 30rds actually shooting it. Had a couple sticks when I was just running the ammo through. No issues at all when actually shooting. I was probably running the bolt a little harder then. I have an NRL22 match next weekend I can...

    Tikka T1X

    I agree, little pricey but I have not had good success with the factory mag and extensions. Had one fall off in the middle of a stage so that was the end of that. If this runs it's worth it in my opinion

    Tikka T1X

    Anyone tried the T1x NDR 15rd mags? Just got mine today, haven't gotten a chance to shoot it yet but I'm pumped to have a 15rd option.

    Rifles you have, but don't like.

    Savage Model 12 Varminter Low Profile in 204. I bought it in college and put it in a boyds thumbhole pepper laminate stock. I thought it was the coolest rifle back when I had no money and knew zero about rifles. It shoots really good and is killer on prairie dogs but compared to my other rifles...

    I made a stock

    I saw this thread a while back and was really impressed by the finished stock. Then I just heard you talking about it on the hornady podcast. Pretty sweet! Excellent work!

    Best semi auto 20 ga for squirrel

    I recently picked up a 20ga Beretta A300 Ultima and have been very impressed. I have a older 20ga Beretta 391 urika (best shooting auto made, just my opinion) and they are extremely similar. I've shot some skeet and sporting with it and I really like the way it shoots. Been 100% with everything...

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    Ultimatum probably could've used you on their team two years ago when they announced the defacto! 😂

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    That's what I'm thinking, and mine is a 223, so not lot of recoil or anything. But I agree, rough and not ideal.

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    Damn, I just dropped mine off at my local gunsmith to inlet my chassis for the safety. Definitely going to take a look at that when I get it back. I noticed marks there but didn't really think twice about it. Say the threads are busting through, and while I'd say that is rather poor design, and...

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    That's what I still need to do to the chassis. But I'll update once I get that done!

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    I picked up my 223 defacto two days ago. It's pretty sweet so far. I've got a couple things to do to make everything work with the x-ray, but nothing too out of the ordinary I'd say. I'll try to update once I get it all worked out.
