Thread: Stuck bits- Tikka

I'm Not a complete idiot lads!!

Just half.

The shroud was off as this is my 5th Tikka (cue the haters) so I'm fairly familiar with the shroud/handle and trigger spring.

Solved both issues this morning with a more convincing tap on the bevelled edge which showed a fairly rough finish so it wouldn't slide out. The new handle slid in easily.

The trigger spring was also deformed on the last ring so it was catching on the threading for the grub screw.
I used a small screw, large enough to catch the spring and small enough to miss the threads to grab the spring and pull it out.

Pretty happy with the result.

The calibre is 6.5 creedmoor.

Thanks for the comments both sarcastic and helpful!! And maybe even the condescending ones too?
