    I called and spoke to LongRifles Inc a while back. They'll open it up for $50 if I remember right. They also sell replacement bolts for the Tikka.

    It’s for a RH tikka t3, carbon fiber and very light weight. I put it on my gun and shot maybe 40 rounds with it before going to a sterk bolt handle. Asking $70 shipped lower 48, PayPal or Venmo.

    Rem 700 Difficult to close/open bolt

    Just wanted to update those of you that were having this same issue. I took the rifle to APR where they ended up replacing the extractor. I was able to make it to a local indoor range today just to see how the action cycled when shooting and everything appeared normal. Still a tiny mark being...

    Rem 700 Difficult to close/open bolt

    Well today I spent a bit of time and pulled the rifle out to continue some of these tests. I tried two other cartridges, a 180gr Federal, and 200gr Remington. I experienced the same difficulty closing the bolt for both of these as well. I then put a layer of masking tape around the head of the...

    Rem 700 Difficult to close/open bolt

    I'm going to try and make it by the store tomorrow and pick up a couple different boxes to test. Unfortunately the worst of it which is opening the bolt after firing a round, requires me to make it to the range to test. I just tried this and actually can't get it to chamber a fired case at...

    Rem 700 Difficult to close/open bolt

    Thank you all for the responses, I took some time to look into this today. My initial research also led me to believing it's an extractor issue. The bolt cycles perfectly when empty. I started by looking closer at the bolt face which I noticed some wearing on the bottom side (This rifle only has...

    Rem 700 Difficult to close/open bolt

    I bought a new Rem 700 in 300wm a while back and have been swamped with work ever since and I finally got out to shoot and get zeroed this last week. I gave the rifle a once over and wipe down before taking it out and everything seemed tight and in working order. After bore sighting I shot 4...

    Grab a Gun ?

    Bought a rem700 from them not long ago and no problems yet. I also live in the DFW metroplex so it helped being able to pick it up from their store rather than dealing with a transfer.

    Best budget long range scopes

    I've got one of the non illuminated versions waiting for rings to arrive that I'm mounting up. After everything I've read on and looking through mine it seems to be a very solid choice for sub $1000! Hopefully I can get to the range to break in this new set up in the next couple weeks.

    30mm scope ring suggestions

    You may also want to give Hawkins a call, because if I remember correctly the hybrids are currently only made for Rem700, Stiller, and Lone Peak Actions.

    30mm scope ring suggestions

    Red Hawk Rifles sells them online and I believe longrangeonly.com does as well. My hybrids just shipped yesterday from RHR after being on backorder for a couple weeks. It will be my first experience with them, but I've heard great things about Hawkins rings.

    FNG from Texas

    Been planning a DIY solo elk hunt in Colorado for the past few months and this site has been a key for finding good info. Figured it's time to stop being a lurker!
