Does anyone have an extra Bolt Stop laying around they can part with? Attempted the bolt stop mod for LA and ended up taking away too much. Damn bolt comes out now without having to push the stop...
I figured they would, but its really snug, and wont feed. I read another post where someone had the same issues, and ended up sanding down the inside of the mag to give it a little more room.
I have 2 brand new (1 still in package) 5 round long action mags for Tikka. I bought them hoping to use with 300wsm after modifying my bolt stop. These mags won't work with 300wsm unless I sand down the inside of the mags. Decided to go a different route so I'll ship these for $75 for both.
I know this is an old thread but what velocities are you getting out of the Tikka with 200gr ELD-X? I'd like to try this load, but unsure with Tikka being 1:11 twist.
Micus what velocities are you getting with the 212's? Just got a Tikka 300wsm and would love to run 212 ELD-X's but have been concerned on the 11" twist as well...
So here is my dilemma...Making a trade for a Tikka T3x 300wsm. I currently have a semi-custom T3 CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor and is an absolute track driver however I am wanting another Tikka for strictly a western hunting rifle. This new to me Tikka I would like to change a Carbon Barrel as well as...
By chance do you think he will be willing to trade for another 300wsm but in a weatherby vanguard? Its a heavier stainless rifle and has a muzzle break on it which greatly helps the recoil. I also installed a Timney Trigger. I can include a couple boxes of ammo loaded with 210 Berger vld's.
