    My new boom stick. Thompson Center Pro Hunter 270. Leupold 4.5 - 14 X 40mm CDS. Gunworks duralium suppressor. I am yet to sight it in, once I have worked out which ammo it likes the best I will get the custom dial scope cap. Probably start with Hornady SST 140 gr and see how they group through this rifle.

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Factory barrel was 28 inches, got it cut to 24, that's still long but with no action (bolt) the overall length is still the same as a standard Tikka rifle.
