    Took the 18” Tikka T3 out today for a subsonics run. In all honesty I prefer shooting the Browning BLR, simply for the silly cowboy factor. But seriously, with a DPT suppressor this rig is deadly...

    I agree with quentin - purely for hobby stock inletting I think you'd get away with it. I can and do inlet stocks with excellent surface finish at a spindle speed of 2000rpm or below, using a sharp...

    For milling anything other than wood, I agree with the other comments - it will be terrible. But I think it would be suitable for your use case. The rigidity of the column will not be an issue...

    It is a very small and light machine and id suggest getting something bigger. Saying that, you wont have trouble holding +/- 1mm thats like a mile in engineering accuracy. Id suggest looking for...

    Yup, waste of money. That is a glorified drill press. not a mill. Look for 2nd hand mills. You want something weighing at least 2 to 3 times that, with a beefy motor and as rigid as possible. ...

    This is why I love my Blackout. Zero'd @ 100m on supers. Dial to 6 on the vertical and it's zero'd @ 50m for subsonics. 16" barrel with a DPT overbarrel can.
