Was finally able to pick up my 6.5CM Veil Alpine. It wasn’t my first choice in the camo but man it’s nice!

I was trying to resist but now will have to get one! I already have a T3X lite in a Creed so trying to decide if i need another Creed or get one in a magnum.

Adjusted the trigger, put on the pistol grip, installed pic rail for Hatch bipod, and mounted the scope. She’s ready for the range!

Looks great Frank! If you don’t mind measuring can you tell me what the overall barrel length is with the brake?

You bet. Attached are some pics with measurements.

What height rings are you running? I ordered a MTN tactical rail, didn‘t see the dimensions. Looks like a good 1/4”, maybe more. I’m guessing mid height rings will clear a 50mm objective.

Frank did you get a chance to shoot that rifle yet?
Heck yeah! I've put 60 rounds through it so far. I'm sure I'll put some more through this weekend. This pic is from sighting it in. You can see me working it to the left but the last five left a pretty nice group.

Looking good! Its such a shame Tikkas take so much time to break in!😂😂😂

What ammo are you running through it?

These Tikkas love that bullet. These were my first 5 shots at 200 a few months ago with my T3X Lite with a 10-15 mph crosswind.

So awesome man! I legitimately don’t have any regrets on buying this rifle.

I went with another 6.5 creed. Guess it doesn't hurt to have two! My son likes shooting my lite anyways so it’ll probably be his within the next year or two.
