    Be that as it may I am now the owner of a fast twist Tikka t3x in 223, simply the lite model as i figure it has a smaller hole in the barrel than the bigger calibers so should be ok to run bigger bullets slower without heating too fast.
    I'm looking at changing, stock, bottom metal and increasing mag capacity, any advice welcome
    cheers,
    Play with the factory stock for a bit, maybe throw one of the vertical grips on it. They arent the prettiest but they are a pretty stable platform, at least as far a poly stocks go

    Dpt chassis is pretty sweet as well, then it can match your suppressor

    Well that is........different.
    And not in a good way.
    Ugly, is the term that springs to mind.

    Although, that is a subjective term

    That stock does look very nice Zeb, its a different shape to the stocks they use to make, they must have some different options now.

    You’ll have to start drinking cody’s, buy yourself a nice Surf, and get one of those really good vortex’s to go on top....
