    Just to put things in perspective,a basic new lathe to start barrel work is around 8k. A descent size lathe like the one we use everyday is now very close to 40k. A reamer with its set of gauges is...

    Yes the Tikka has the same trigger as the centre fire version. I've had both too and both are gone. I found them both quite "click clack" to cycle compared with some other similar rifles. Neither...

    I mean I can't really talk, I have at last count something like 15 different typres of .223 bullets sitting there. The big red stack of 80 ELDMs is pretty hard to mistake though
