Thread: Gun Porn, show off your new toys

not realy new but a few mods since built a year so ago so here's the 260 (new and improved)
tikka t3 action (blued)
trueflite ultra match fluted and duracoated 18" 1-8.5 twist
dpt over barrel
egw rail + burris z rings
Nikon 4.5-14x40sf
sitting in a boyeds laminated stock

still need to glass bed the action as its not the best fit in the world but its shoot able as is till funds allow

This has been my rifle for 30 years, its a 358 norma on a P17 action and a Douglass Preimum barrel 26 inches long built by Din Collins. just got it back from Scott Trail who fitted the T2 brake as the recoil was to much for me now. It kicks less than my 308 now, great brake

Nice long barrel too, proper old school. Good classic stuff.

I think it was the late great Bill Axbey that once quoted, the 358 Norma was the best kicker of all kickers he ever owned

It weighs 4 kilos and i get a 250 grain spitzer doing 3000 fps .The muzzle brake has upset the barrel harmonics and ill have to sort out a new load, its opened out to a three inch group
