    Choosing First Spotting scope?

    Thank you very much for your input. I am definitely nervous with trying to use binos, as I know I really struggled to see hits at 100 with the Ares spotter. It may have been a mix of mirage and the fact that the range has a lot of shrubbery around the targets. Makes it really hard to see misses...

    Choosing First Spotting scope?

    Hello everyone! I am currently trying to decide on a spotting scope, and am hoping for some guidance. I am looking for my first spotting scope to use for long range shooting around 1000 yards. I was hoping to get into PRS, but it just seems like I don’t have the time unfortunately. The main use...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I usually use Hoppes no. 9, but I’ve heard Butch’s bore shine and Sweets 762 mentioned here. Any preference?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I know that breaking in a barrel is pretty much considered a myth nowadays, so what are you guys doing in terms of shooting out of the box. Bore snake with hoppes solvent? What about between shooting and what not

    Yeah I thought AICS mags would be good for uniformity, but seems like they can bring some issues? Like you can’t use pmag acis

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Hi all. About to by a CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor (24”) as my first precision rifle. Any reason to go stainless over blued performance wise? Live in Florida, but gun is always stored in safe under a/c and has a dehumidifier. Any additions or suggestions to make early on? Need rings for a Ares ETR...

    Lost on what to for my first precision rifle

    Just an update... So I managed to find a store with a Bergara HMR, LRP, and tikka tac a1. Also found someone with a ctr in stock and felt them all. The premier action is definitely a noticeable upgrade over the b14, but I like the tikka action better. Decided to go with the CTR in 6.5 cm with a...

    Good to hear a different experience. I do like that if I go Bergara I don’t plan to change the stock or anything so can run production division if it try PRS. Thank you very much for the kind words and well wishes. I can’t wait to hear that steel running myself!

    So I’m doing some more research on the HMR pro and came across this post: Has anyone had similar issues? Seems like this person has done their due dilligence and it’s not a one off. I don’t see these issues mentioned anywhere else as far as I can tell...

    24” in 6.5 Creedmoor. Exactly what I am looking for. Starting to lean this way, but I’ve felt the action on a standard HMR and a tikka varmit and think the tikka is smoother.

    Yeah it looks like I could actually buy the barreled action from them and buy a bravo and just assemble it for less than the bravo package. Kind of odd

    Lost on what to for my first precision rifle

    After doing some thinking about what you have said, I agree with you. I think I am going to table the origin build until my next prs rifle if i get into it. For now, I am going to get either a ctr, HMR pro, or bravo. Only trouble I’m having is deciding which one. It sounds like most people...

    This was my very first thought when I was thinking about getting one of these. A lot of people complain about the stock thiugh

    I just mention it because I saw one new on the exchange for $900 so I didn’t know if it’s the better choice over the origin.

    How does the nucleus compare to the origin? Haven’t seen that mentioned yet but I thought it was a good action

    Thank you for the input lowlight! In the research I’ve done, I have seen the SH APO mentioned a few times. I just wasn’t planning on spending that much, but it seems like brining up the budget and buying the right thing the first time is the way to go. It’s definitely something I have to...
