Hey team,

Just bought a Tikka t3x and am looking to get it cerakoted. Post your experiences and examples of rifles you’ve had done, along with who did it for you.
Also if someone could recommend...

Definitely a good question rossm, I’d be pretty interested to know the answer too.

It’s sounding like 16-17” is a pretty good bet.
I have a couple of boxes on 160gr Accubonds that I was using for my 7mm rem but I’m still learning the whole reloading art so haven’t been successful...

Hey Team,

I’m going to be buying a new rifle soon, a Tikka T3X Superlite to be precise.
I’m most likely going to be getting a 7mm08 and want to shorten the barrel and use a Hardy Covert...

I also own a Xbolt in 7rm and love it, mine definitely isn’t light as it’s got a 26” barrel. Only thing really stopping me buying another in 7mm08 is the lack of aftermarket bits for it. Other than...

What makes you prefer the tikka over the sako?

Unfortunately they are a bit pricey for my bank account haha

I do like the abundance of after market kit you can buy for the tikkas too, also quite a bit cheaper than kimbers

Do you know how they compare to the sako a7? Is there much advantage for the extra price

Hey team,

So i’m looking at getting a new rifle and am just looking for suggestions on what you guys/ gals think is good value for money. I’m wanting to go for something on the lighter side as I...

Not saying it’s been done mate, just a hypothetical situation on the legality of it. But i hear you, wouldn’t be something i’d do

Cheers for that guys. Guess the law doesn’t make practical sense as often as it should

So where they say “if possible, make the firearm inoperable” does that mean you ‘can’ leave it unattended if i take the bolt with me? Or is it just a blanket no? Seems to contradict itself there

Hey team,

Got a question for the more educated;

What are the laws around leaving a firearm unattended in a vehicle?

For example i’m on my way to the range and need to stop at the shops and...

Have just bought a set of comparators so i’ll be able to compare the distance off the lands between my loads and the factory ammunition

Think I paid about 80nzd for 50 accubonds. I have a few of these left so if once they are done or i decide they aren’t what my rifle likes i’ll try something else out. I’ll be sure to check out...

Very good reply there. Cheers for explaining.

Thanks, may aswell take any advice given seen as it’s not hard to know more or have more experience in this field than me so I’m always all ears. Keen to learn.
I did have quite a look at...

Hey,

I cannot say for certain how many years it has been sitting for, but it was in screw lid plastic containers and still smells fine according to dad. That is one thing i am weary of though as...

Hey Pommy,

I don’t own a manual yet, have been getting information off of the bullet manufacturers websites and the likes. I think you’re probably right with that assumption. I do have a couple...

Hey Granpamac,

Just whipped up a ballistics chart and noted that the difference isn’t that major really. There is a 6inch drop difference at 500m and roughly a 200fps and 200ftlb difference...

That is a good point. I was under the impression that seating closer to the lands was better seen as the factory loads are set to encompass all make and models. Cheers

I have measured the max jam length for the accubonds, that length was 3.366” so I seated the bullets at 3.350”. .2gr jumps in powder is how you’d go from here? I’ll give that a go. Cheers!
