    Reader beware - a long read but stuck recuperating after some surgery so a good way to burn some time finishing this yarn I had partially finished a few months ago. A brief window amongst family...

    Nathan F liked post by Tahr On thread : Hodgdon 69 gr 223 manual error?
    I have a Model 7 that only tolerates loads .5 grain less than my Tikka at the same 2.3" length. It seems to have a tight chamber. I think that its unlikely that you could get enough 2206H into a...

    Good call on the 243. If it was me I wouldn’t worry about a carbon stock till later on. Your call of course but I bet he’d be happy just to have a new tikka! Fast twist barrel is a good call but...
