Remage 16" 300 Blk 1:7 Pss stock with a 10x SWFA. Shooting 208 Amax and 125gr HP. Its just fun
Do you have any updates on velocity. I just ordered a 18 inch benchmark carbon but thinking about changing to 22. Any regrets on the 18. What powder you using
Wanted to give a solus a try so I form 1d one and slapped on a 8.6blk barrel I had laying around.
How do youlike the AB can?
Huge fan. I have 6 raptors on various calibers and they really shine on the magnums in both sound reduction and recoil reduction.
I’m shooting 169 hammers at 2900 pretty easily. Got em up to 3k but after a couple firings gave me clickers so backed down. 180 hybrids I haven’t really pushed but was somewhat close to a load at 2740. No regrets on length. I’ve got a 7 Saum in 22” that just barely edges it out. If I was to start over I probably woulda done 20” to match my Saum or slightly beat it. That being said I’m not pushing that Saum very hard at all with 58 grains of rl23 at 2750fps and 180 hybrids
Sounds pretty good to me, I was back and forth between 18" and 20" for my 7 PRC Tikka Carbon Six prefit, so I finally just ordered 19". Just picked up some Staball HD to try once my barrel comes in.
Try any large bore? I’ve got a 375 Ruger. I have a Rex Silentium for it but wondered about the AB. It’s a 20” barrel and they recommend 22” for that size/caliber. I’m intrigued by their reflex chamber.
Biggest I have a .338 and on a 26” lapua, it’s hearing safe indoors.
Hope to zero and shoot her tomorrow! Zermatt TL3

It’s about 10 pounds.
Finally got to shoot it today. Lost ~125 fps after shortening the barrel. 140 ELDM, 41.5 gr H4350, Fed LRM primers, Lapua brass = 2603 fps, 22 ES, 6.7 SD.
Already shown here, just to show my new zebra camo 
Had this one done up about eight years ago and she still shoots everything. But she is a tank, would love to shave some weight but she shoots way too well.

looks amazing. Is that DIY? If so, how'd you learn to paint like that?
Thanks F35 !
It's diy. I just sprayed Krylon on aluminum foil and dip a small piece of sponge in it to apply. It's pretty much idiot proof. Gives a bit of texture which is nice. In my experience Krylon is surprisingly tough when thick enough. And I can reapply if it gets scratched. It's cheap and and gets the job done.
Great idea! Looks professionally done!
Here is my 19” MPA rifle next to my 18” Desert Tech. The barrels look more than 1” in length apart don’t they?
.308 win?
Beautiful, I have an Anthem S as well. Most impressive 30 cal can I've shot to date.
Yes sir, I love it. Have only tried it on the 6.5 prc so far but sounds great. I have the 6.5 endcap for it as well to try out. Also, have the Torch at my dealer currently waiting on me to do paperwork. It will be dedicated to one of my 6 arc's.
The Manner Pro Hunter is just absolute perfection in a hunting specific stock. So much WANT!!!
How do you like that March? Awesome glass?
The glass is great. I like it as a lightweight hunting scope that is short, with low profile tactical turrets. It’s a FFP FMA-2 recticle. The floating center dot is perfect for my eyes, like it much better than cross hairs. Also along with the tapered post really helps your eye find the center quickly in up close rushe shots at 3x.
I now have my eye on a 1.5-15x42

Yes carbon. TS Customs ks1 stock. I got rid of my manners lrh stocks for these
Do they make them for Tikka? Couldn't tell from the website
Stockys makes something like this in carbon for Tikkas. Very low price too but I haven't ordered one. They are backordered. I've heard with them it can take a while...
I've got one of the Stockys vertical grip carbon stocks on order for my Tikka, only a few weeks into the wait, hopefully it doesn't take too long.
Lots of info on the Stocky's VG stocks here for folks who are interested: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/stockys-hunter-vg-tikka-stock.321460/
I backordered mine from stockys. Only took about 2 weeks to get but maybe I got lucky
My 26” 300 Norma with an MPA 4 port brake is loud enough to wake the dead. How is that 18” one to shoot?
