    Tikka 223 or 25-06

    Looking at getting a 223 Tikka Lite SS but see they have 25-06 too. I have a ton of 5.56 (from AK 223 a bit beat up) and 223 range brass and a half ton of 30-06 brass. I have a 6.5x55 Tikka and son has 30-06 Tikka. Love the Tikka and will stay with them for my next rifle. I mostly like...

    260rem vs 7-08 for young shooter and hunter

    Re: 260rem vs 7-08 for young shooter and hunter If you reload, there are a lot of reduced loads in 30-06 that make shooting a 30-06 like shooting a 22 mag. Not sure if there are any reduced loads in your calibers. When my son got his Tikka T3 Lite 30-06 I started with very light loads and...

    Re: Bore Squeeg-E Remington's New Bore Cleaner There is not much savings of patches unless you use corrosive or have worn pitted surplus bores then I wounder how it works on those bores. My trash basket is full of patches after trying to clean my M91/30 and PPS43 with M91/30 barrel. I need a...

    Bore Squeeg-E Remington's New Bore Cleaner

    Re: Bore Squeeg-E Remington's New Bore Cleaner How do you use a boresnake? I have one and after one pull isn't it dirty? If you reuse it after its its dirty aren't you just pulling crud back through your bore? I bought it for my SVT40 and after shooting some corrosive rounds. I pulled the...

    Is there a way to use the phones (Iphone5) GPS to measure distances? How accurate is it when you set a waypoint (if you can do that with a phone GPS, just got the phone) and use that waypoint to let you know the distance?

    CZ 455 Barrel Swap, What about Scope?

    When swapping barrels on the 455 from one caliber to other, what do you do with the scope? Do you have to re-zero it or do you get another scope and set up quick detach mount/rings?

    VEPR Hunter 7.62x54r- Gettin' Itchy Here

    Re: VEPR Hunter 7.62x54r- Gettin' Itchy Here So all I get with the longer barrel is more vorticity/energy to punch the steel core of the surplus into what ever I am shooting? When I was shooting steel core surplus through my SVT40 at my AR steel swing target the steel core didn't penetrate...

    Tikka T3 Super Varmint

    Re: Tikka T3 Super Varmint Canada has a better selection of Tikka's than the US. If $$$$ is not an issue, you can order one from Canada and have it imported to the US. It will cost you a bit of $$$ but it can be done. Contact the Canada importer and they can get you lined up with a dealer in...

    cleaning my new Anschutz (any .22 Barrel)

    Re: cleaning my new Anschutz (any .22 Barrel) What doubts do you have? The same cable cleans my 22's and my 223. I cut my own patches from muzzle loading patches so I can make them fit the bore. I don't use the $$$ round Otis patches. I just cut the patch to size, or you could buy them if...

    7.62x54R vs 1"steel

    Re: 7.62x54R vs 1"steel If you shoot the steel core stuff you need to know that the steel core rod may bounce back at you. It did for me when shooting at an armor steel swing target at 100 yrds or less . Most just fell under the target but some must of be hit like a swinging baseball bat...

    Preferences on 1pc cleaning rods

    Re: Preferences on 1pc cleaning rods Otis pull through cable. Its one piece. Pull it through the bore and done. No dirty rod banging the bore when pulling it back through the barrel. Add a good foam bore cleaner (no brush needed) and you will never have metal touching your bore again. The...
