Thread: Bushbuck Bipod / Tikka 243

I thought F*ck it and bought one after reading the blurb about Aircraft grade titanium...I also emailed the owner as I wanted the Titanium statement cleared up and the email I got back confirmed the blurb and gave me a few details on the owner who seemed pretty straight up and into his stuff!

I told a mate I had just bought one as he is looking for a pod too..He promptly told me he knew the owner and that he was a pretty fussy engineer... good signs.

The Bipod arrived quickly and looks just like a Harris and performs nicely. The only real difference being how the spring is secured to the top of the leg otherwise it feels like quality.

The other bonus is the Gunworks spike also fit the BushBuck so I gave them and the Blued Sako Rings I bought recently a bit of prep and then sprayed them flat black... The rings tend to surface rust quickly so I wanted them sorted.

Anyone got a decent recipe for the 243? Im keen on the 87 vmax but also want a load for bigger game.
