    Tikka T3 Thread

    Threaded barrel, external magazine fed, Pic Rail, it is just ready for a new stock or chasis. You are not waisting any money by ditching the plastic stock. The Tac1 is the only other option to offer these features, but you pay twice the price and it comes with its own chasis.

    Vibratory tumbers - Does yours "walk"?

    I have 2 Lyman 2500 Pro Mags, yes they both travel. Easy fix, there are 2 holes in the base, one on each side. Use a small screw or bolt, to make a stud through the table, from the bottom up. Keeps them in place and makes removal and reinstallation take no extra time, just line up the holes with...

    Masterpiece Arms 300PRCBA

    I have the MPA BA in 6.5 Creed, shot most reloads sub 1/2 MOA in 5 shot groups, it actually made load development difficult. If I do my part, I can get a couple of 5 shot 1/4 moa groups at 200 in a trip. When I got the rifle, I called them, they told me which power and what bullet would give the...
