So where are yall getting the spotsmatch rings?

I ordered mine from a place called Tawnado airguns (or something like that) in the UK, it was actually pretty easy and they got here pretty quickly. Just make sure to check your emails from your credit card company, mine put a hold on my card for suspicious activity since it was used in the UK and I live in Alaska.

Yep, this is the same seller that has them on ebay.

Yep, this is the same seller that has them on ebay.

They are cheaper through the site though once you click shipping to the USA the EU tax drops off.

Very nice rifle! What contour benchmark barrel? What’s the end weight?

7.2 lbs scope on, #3 contour but brought down to close to tikka dimensions.

My Tikka has had a few iterations. Falls into the "semi" custom category I think.

Factory 30-06 barrel cut to 18.5" and threaded
Gemtech Tracker suppressor
Wildcat Stock (22 oz w/ Limbsaver pad)

Weight of the naked gun is 5.5 lbs. Can be configured as either a 6.4 lb carbine with a light Leupold or up to 7.9 lbs as shown with suppressor and heavy optic package.

Did you paint this yourself?

Got a few things that still need done.
Tikka 270 wsm in a mesa carbon stock.
Need to upgrade bottom metal and magazine.
I have a patriot valley 6.5 prc barrel on the way as well as straight jacket armory muzzle brake.
My MK5 with cch reticle is on they as well.

Is that the factory barrel? How do you like the stock?

Did you paint this yourself?

Yes. It's just Krylon with a few coats of matte clear coat.

Do you recall what the bare weight was of that stock? I just ordered my first Tikka in 7 rem mag (have some left over 7mm ammo). Going to build it into a 6.5 PRC after this hunting season and looking at that stock.

Mine was 28oz I believe.

 

[CApighunter]

Finally got it out together, 24 inch proof sendero in 270wsm and a Mesa Altitude stock. 6 pounds 14 ounces bare.

Yes factory barrel. Stock is awesome.

Yes blackjack ace 131. Right now I'm running a mild load of 58.5gr rl26 pushing @ 3092 fps. 45 rounds down pipe. Have a ladder loaded 58.5-62.1 we'll see what happens!
