  1. Gunsmithing
    I have just over 1000 rounds thru the barrel now in 6.5 Creedmoor. I’ve added a bunch of weight to the chassis, a different grip and have good glass on it. I want to try a lighter caliber before I go full custom. Seems like I’ll need another barrel before summer is out anyway it makes sense to...

  6. Rifles and Rifle Cartridges
    Hi i am looking at a new 25-06 and am thinking either a tikka or a remington 700. I really liked the feel of the tikka but i don't like how they only offer a 22" barrel on it.

  10. Rifles and Rifle Cartridges
    I got my Tikka T3 today and have a dumb question. Do I need to buy seperate bases or will most rings fit directly to the receiver? I bought some Burris Signature rings and am thinking I need to get bases since it doesn't look like they will work directly on the receiver. Is this correct?
