    Sako S20 280ai build

    I've read that the receiver length of the T3 does not allow for longer than 3.4 ish OAL. The 162s run great for me at 3.36. The 180s are pretty long and it would be nice to load them to about 3.55 OAL

    Sako S20 280ai build

    Awesome, that was my main concern. Planning on using the precision forend and stock.

    Sako S20 280ai build

    Thanks for the heads up. My tikka 280 AI feeds smoother than any of my short action tikkas. The 40 degree shoulder angle of the 280AI does not help the feeding situation.

    Sako S20 280ai build

    I'd have to check with my gunsmith if he can thread a bartlein barrel for it. I'm assuming the tikka uses a different type of thread?

    Sako S20 280ai build

    Sup guys, I am interested in building a 280AI on the Sako S20 long action platform to use the 180 ELDM bullet with the generous mag length (3.60 OAL). The magazines for the S20 appear to be double stack and I'm wondering how well a 280AI cartridge will feed. I currently have a Tikka T3 280 AI...

    Sako S20 vs Tikka T3 UPR?

    The Sako S20 seems like a perfect platform for a long action build. The extended magazine (3.60 oal) would allow for maximized reloads. Specifically, a 280 AI comes to mind but I wonder how the double stack mag would feed.

    Faxon Barrel for a lightweight 6.5 creedmoor build or something else?

    Dude I've followed almost all of your posts on AR15 and on the hide comparing AR10s to the Grendel. You inspired me to build a Grendel in 2019 that has been awesome. How do you like shooting the MSR10? I'm contemplating picking one up in 6.5CR but I worry that I'll stop shooting the Grendel.

    Help with 280ai barrel contour

    Hey guys, I am looking for advice on a barrel contour for a 280 AI hunting rifle. I plan to build a 22" rifle for hunting and casual target shooting up to 1000 yards. The rifle will be shot suppressed 100% of the time. I am torn between bartlein #3 and #3b contours. I am not interested in...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    Thanks for the heads up guys. I'm going to see who can give me the best price. I was interested in going for the AMG but wanted something with a lower power and the gen 1 is about half the price!

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    I currently have a viper pst 4-16 on my tikka CTR 6.5 20", I'm debating between the Razor Gen 1 and the Nightforce SHV 4-14x50 F1. This gun is mostly going to be used for ringing steel at an 800 yard range and occasional hunting. Which one would you recommend?
