My Tikka takes a long action 3006 mag at the moment (bolt stop removed) so can seat longer. I also have a R8 but not in 7mm.

My Tikka takes a long action 3006 mag at the moment (bolt stop removed) so can seat longer. I also have a R8 but not in 7mm.
Solved, Standard extended magazine +1
Short action not action at home lol
This M+ mag sounds interesting. Where did you find one? or is it the small magnum one. Never heard of it. What's your COL at mag Length with the M+? I'm using 3006 mag with the bolt stop removed....
Cheers guys for the info. I'll have a look at what I can achieve with some more grains and seating depth. A little extra speed would be nice. Nice all round cartridge out to 500. Again thanks for...
Hi guys. I've been looking through the old threads and I'm wondering if anyone is still using the 162's and what recipes you found best.
I've been using for a while now, and like them a lot, but...
The new Schmidt & Bender 3-18x42 Meta turret also does PBT. You set it yourself.
Maybe Zeiss also (they have different rings you can use (V8 model) and I guess you can order one too).
Mine has it preinstalled so I wouldn't know if there is a hack. I just long press one of the buttons and it turns on. Not sure what you mean by painting the target as it doesn't have a rangefinder...
I've got the 3-18 sierra 6bdx and have shot goats / deer at a variety of ranges, the longest was 475m. Shot target at 500m as well to the check drop. I won't be using it further. I think the...
Cheers guys I'll give it a go. I have quite a few computer fans lying about from previous builds (I wonder if an old computer case would do it lol) I might try some chammy and venison and see how it...
Hi guys. Just wanting to know what your setup is (build) and a good recipe. I've got a variety of meat to try out from venison to chammy so am looking at giving it a go. In Switzerland and Italy,...
No worries, NZ is a hunters paradise! PM me and we'll chat. The guys on this forum are awesome and full of information. Just let them know your plans and they will help out as well.
Blackforst's definitely a nice place. Living in Zürich so not too far away lol. I usually travel to NZ once a year to see family and friends plus bonus the of hunting. Firearms licence is pretty...
I think he means Timms stream, St James Conservation Area, north of Edwards pass
Zürich has a few stores. Transa (near main station and right next to the Irish pub for the rugby, Sportxx, bachli Berg sport. Both transa and Bachli have outlets where things are cheaper. I usually...
I've been down this path with the atlasworx bottom metal but changed back to the original tikka because it feed better and was more quiet. I did drop the tikka magazine once and it broke apart but...
I'm not complaining about my Blaser R8 quality and never is my mate for that matter I must get it back off him lol
I have also the sig sierra 6 bdx 3-18X44 paired with the kilo 3000. Don't find it heavy at all. Shot out to 480 and it's bang on. Optics are better than the 3 series (which I have also) and has wind...
I have the older version of the exo called the K2 2000 day pack/overnighter. If the new design is as comfortable as the older one then there won't be another pack brand for me. The new design looks...
I have the sig sierra 6 bdx 3-18X44 combined with the kilo 3000 binos.
Used it a bit and it works very well and quick. Shot a goat at 470m after getting the drop sorted out beforehand and a few deer...
Great info guys. I've surveyed land all around Marlborough / Kaikoura over the years and those paper roads we had to lay out, that were drawn up in England by drawing a straight line on a map, were...
Cheers guys I never thought about the doc permit. Yeah tell me about the Swiss rules lol you almost need a license to fart in public lol. I've just been to Hungry hunting and my mate asked me about...
Yeah I've just been to Hungry hunting with some Swiss colleagues and filled the freezer (which I'll do a write up soon) and they asked if I had a hunting licence so that next time I can go actually...
A quick question for those that have hunted Europe. How do you go about getting the right documents?
NZ has the firearms licence not a hunting licence so is the NZ licence valid as a hunting licence...
Also using the 162 eldm in the 7mm08. Not very fast but dam effective down range. I think they expand better with the slower fps down range. Ultimate reloader on YouTube did a comparison between the...
