    veitnamcam liked post by Beetroot On thread : Tikka T3 Magazine Mod
    Anyone with a Tikka who has tried to seat long bullets in their reloads, will have come across the problem that the magazine length is way too short in Tikka mags. If you shoot a medium sized round...

    Are you saying that the CDS turret is not exposed, it's covered by the cap? I thought that Leupold had recently started offereing the TMOA 3-18's with exposed MOA turret's on both the windage and...

    How were you using the lee in the drill? With the case clamp in the drill? Found with a bit of practis you can unlock and lock the case quickly by using forward and backwards on the drill and nip...

    CooeeBay liked post by Beetroot On thread : Scope options / advice
    I agree with not using a ballistic reticle, either fine duplex or a milling type reticle and dial for elevation. I'd look at a Nikon Monarch 4-16x42 for something a little cheaper, you can get...

    MB liked post by Beetroot On thread : Centrefire scope on rimfire?
    I find centrefire scopes can have a slightly floaty reticle when shooting at 50yards when on full power, but if you have a consistent check weld it shouldn't be too much of a problem. But I have two...

    Do you mean 17 Fireball? I would struggle to find reason to own a .221 Fireball unless you have specific desire or need for one, other than using less gun powder than a 223 or 204 Ruger there is no...

    I had a 5 door 1995 Rav4 and it has seen more mud than 90% of 4x4s on the road. With my 80% bald H/T tyres, I made it through many bogs and muddy tracks. Best one was when I went camping near...

    A 284win will work in a short action, but the projectile gets seated so deep in the case may as well go for a 7mm08. Really anything mentioned so far would work at the ranges you are talking....

    Danny liked post by Beetroot On thread : New project rifle advice
    I've got a Tikka in .260, it has a reasonable kick to it, but it's not unpleasant to shoot. If recoil in a light rifle is a concern I'd be going for .260, 6.5x55 or 6.5 Creedmoor. 6.5x55 has the...

    Using CCI target ammo, shoots well with Lapua target too. What 22lr are you shooting at the moment? I'd recommend getting a CZ either American or Varmint and see how it shoots, you can free float...
