- This is a video I have been looking forward to posting for a long time. My custom Tikka is finished and it is AMAZING! Years of planning/research and lots of money saved and spend went into this rifle. Its everything I hoped it would be. Make sure to stick around to the end because I will be doing a full walk through with everything that makes this hunting rifle awesome.

Absolutely agree with hunting ranges. The closer, the more comfortable I feel. Plus I can just observe the animal’s behavior at 150-200 yds
I did a very similar build using a Proof Research barrel and a McMillan stock, carbon fiber. I believe it was the Game Wardon. I would highly recommend bedding the stock do to the unusual angles of the Tikka action. My gun was already printing .50-.75" groups but after bedding I have shot several groups under .25". I left the factory trigger, factory bottom, using a VX-6HD 3-18-50 with an Area 419 break. Total rig weighs 8.2 lbs. Chambered in 6.5 PRC, the gun was originally a .270 WSM.
Crab Walk I’m really happy with the gun. It turned out great. It’s super accurate. I’m not planning on bedding it. I’ve shot a few groups under 2” at 600 with factory ammo. I just got the new mountain tactical 3 round mag and I really like it. The gun performed great on my first hunt. I just killed a big mule deer at 530. It’s a great gun. Thanks for watching.
Awesome build. I built one almost exactly like yours in 7mm rem mag. Definitely used your recommendation on the barrel fluting. Thanks for the video brother.
Thanks. It’s a good rifle.
SWEET , that is one good looking rifle I have a stock T3 Lite in 300 wsm great rifle Let us know how it shoots . Great job .
It shoots very well. 1/3-1/2” moa with factory ammo.
Great work I've built a super light in 6.5x55 same scope next is the carbon fibre barrel. Keen to see how it shoots
I finally found some bullets the the gun likes. I shot a 3/4” group at 233yds.
I might completely copy your build, it is exactly what I want for elk hunting. Same action, stock style, barrel style and caliber I was thinking
My barrel just arrived to do almost the same build in 280 ackley
How long did it take your Gunsmith to remove factory barrel and replace with new Carbon Six barrel?
You got my sub when you quoted Galatians.
Just got my meza stock and loving it, added a rail at the end for my atlas bipod, getting it for Christmas. I guess I am a a copy cater I same color!!!
Good deal. Have fun with it.
Great choice on the scope mount, I love those game reapers. I see so many guys using cheap mounts in a nice rifle/optic setup and it never makes sense to me.
I’m also a huge fan of the game reaper mounts. I just love the idea of it all being one piece. I have 3 rifle. They all have the game reaper mounts. They’ve been very good to me.
Just purchased the DNZ gamereaper high
@@SClivingOutdoors what height mount?
@@stanlucas1932 medium I think
Have a very similar build myself (video on my channel) and absolutely love it. That Mesa Precision stock can't be beat!
Awesome build....Im planning something with a stainless tikka that I'm getting bored with 😁
That turned out to be an awesome build! I just got my tikka in 280ai. I had Oregon Mountain rifle company out on his carbon barrel. It started out as a .308. Just had to get Long action bolt stop and long action magazine.
Sounds Awesome!
SCliving Outdoors I’m looking forward to an update on this. I’m working up some loads for my 280AI. I ended up trying seating depth with some factory eldx loads and they went from 1.25” group and got them to a .5” group.
Asa Barrett I’m shooting factory 200gr eldx. Breaking in the barrel now.
Asa, I’m interested in the exact custom rifle you mentioned and in the same caliber. How do you like yours? Did Oregon do a good job?
You DID do good indeed! BRAVO!!
I'm tempted to do a very similar DIY rifle... Im thinking T3x stainless action, 300WSM, 24" carbon barrel, 1:10 twist, muzzle brake. I was thinking Mcmillan game warden for the stock but that Mesa looks pretty sweet too. My current rifle is a Sako A7 in 300WSM... it weighs 9.5lb and is very nicely balanced... for a muzzle braked magnum 9-10lbs is just about perfect to balance shootability vs ease of carry. Whats holding me back is mostly the fact that my Sako A7 is pretty good... however the factory stock is that squishy soft touch material which is nice to hold but not very stable... im gonna pillar bed it to see if I can enhance POI stability... A mushy stock seems to cause POI to walk around a bit which is annoying.
Beautiful rifle man I love the look. I have a tikka t3x varmint in 7mm rem mag I'm planning a build with after seeing your build I think I know what direction I will go.
Andrew Knockwood awesome. Good luck 👍🏻
0:15 Amen to that
Great job, thank you for posting! You just gave me idea to do the same.
Glad I could help!
Dude that stock is like a perfect in between for precision shooting and hunting. Raised comb and pistol grip that is so perfect, can't believe it only weighs 30 ounces. 9lb is really lightweight for a 300 win mag. Good thing you have that massive break🤣. That thing is really nice man👌
Thanks man
@SClivingOutdoors did you have to get a new receiver too? Or you used the tikka receiver but just painted it different color?
Nice configuration, to check now the quality of its precision.
1/2”-3/4” moa with factory ammo.
@@SClivingOutdoors Congratulations
I’m betting that lightweight combination chambered in 300WM is a real thumper on the shoulder.
I have one of those stupid expensive 300WM. 25-26 lbs of rifle. Big ol muzzle break. Shoot 230 grain VLD.
Less recoil than a 243 firing 90 grains. It is a smooth shooter.
Don’t think I would ever tote it to hunt with.
I got a chance to shoot a family member’s 300WM. Standard hunting config. 6-8 lbs 190gr bullets. Yeah...... Didn’t take long to get that out of my system. Jacked my shoulder up quick.
I’ve always wanted to do a lightweight setup like that for hunting. I’m just too big of a wuss to go that route.
Wanting to do something in 6.5 territory. Probably a simple 260 Remington chamber. (Simple NATO brass will do in a pinch if need be.).
Nice work! Love that cerakote!
The recoil isn’t bad. Incredibly manageable. My wife shot it last year with no issues while practicing and elk hunting. I’d compare it to a 12ga with a duck load.
I was surprised to hear the weight come in where it did towards the end of the video.
I was figuring sub 7lbs at least. I believe those carbon barrels are a little more heftier than I was imagining.
Nice rifle!
love that rifle, thanks
That's an awesome build man, I did exactly the same type of build as you....except I had a Gunwerks Clymr stock, Defiance action, and Bartlein CF barrel "22 6.5 Creed. How are you liking the CarbonSix barrel? You did the right thing you can build an amazing rifle much cheaper than you can buy them, especially with all the prefit barrels now.
I like it a lot. It shoots very very well
I absolutely love your scripture quotation,its the best..I am pushing 70 been following Christ hard for 40 plus years..Keep on trucking with the Lord..
Awesome im just starting over here in Australia for my backpack rifle. I have a 300wsm tikka action that im going to chamber in 7mm rem mag. This looks like exactly what I am after now i just have to try get it over here in Australia.
Sweet looking rifle mate
Thank you. Good luck on your build. 👍🏻
What part of Au are you in? I want to build one too, should do a video of your build man.
@@m.tplayz8222 Brisbane mate, funny timing cause it took my mesa stock a year to arrive. It just landed last Wednesday. Got some spare mesa stocks also for a tikka action RH.
@@TYSN7 Oh nice, are you selling anything? What stocks are they?
Do you remember which profile you chose on the bolt fluting? There’s an A and a B option. Your build is beautiful. I’m working on my 3rd tikka with carbon barrels.
Sorry, I don’t remember which one I picked.
What about the headspace between the barrel and bolt face? How do you know it’s safe to fire if you didn’t use any gauges?
I had a gunsmith install the barrel but I watched and he taught me how to do it while he worked. He used gauges but he said the fit was absolutely perfect.
Dude i love that. Nice job!
Did your gunsmith have to cut the new barrel off your action? I was thinking to do the same thing with a Proof Barrel but they wouldn't even talk to me about a 22" barrel for the 300WM or WSM... I guess the 30 06 gets closer to the 300WSM with the shorter barrel.? I live where the brown bears are get well over a 1000 pounds, not as agro as a mountain grizzly, but thick as ticks on Admiralty Is. Really good dear hunting though.. hahah.. Nice to have a shorter compact lightweight option with 180grn and up.. Bigger and nothing left of your dear. Cool build. Thanks to share. I ll look into this again.. Have Tikka and it is great for the money..
The barrel came right off the action with a vice. It didn’t need to be cut off.
Wow that’s a beautiful rifle I have one in 7mm with the same scope and wanted to build something like u have there! Thanks for the info bro!
No problem. Good luck.
Nice build, how many degree fluting is that? 180 degree? Or 360 degree?
Nice job mate on a sound platform I'm a retired gunsmith from 🇦🇺
@@garybalasa3158 thanks for watching. It’s a great gun. I love NZ. The hunting over there is fantastic.
@@SClivingOutdoors great segment mate and a great unit, I hunted NZ many times as it's real close to Aussie, my current project is utilising the Tikka platform but I'm miles away from completion just trued up the action in prep for a tolerance fit, now it's time to machine the barrel, I'm a recently retired gunsmith so that sort of kind of makes it easier but definitely not quicker if your a stickler for quality like I am, cheers might run into you in NZ 🤣👍
@@garybalasa3158 sounds like a fun project. I just glanced at the flag emoji real quick and thought it was NZ. My mistake, haha. Good luck with the build!
What a cool build, I had a few questions on your custom barrel and stock.
Carbon Six Barrel Questions:
1)Blank or Prefix
2)Barrel Twist
3)Shank/Chamber Length (2.5" or 3")
4) Muzzle Length (1" or 1.5")
Mesa Stock Question:
1)Barrel Channel in Proof 1.13 or 1.2
Thanks!
Honestly, I don’t remember all the exacts. I did so much research and called so many people over the course of a year or so parts of it run together. It was a prefit barrel and it’s a 1/8 twist. I don’t remember the shank length but I think it was 2.5”. I believe the channel was 1.13 but I’m not positive. If you are doing a build like this don’t rush. Call the companies and talk to them. Do as much research as you can.
I’ve told a lot of people that what I did doesn’t really matter. If you’re building one do what you like and be proud of it.
@@SClivingOutdoors Thanks for your inputs, I'll definitely be contacting Mesa and Carbon Six before I start the build.
Beauty gun you got there.
Did you do the Serra coating yourself? And did you spin the barrel on or have a gun smith do it?
A gunsmith did the cerakoting and barrel install. He showed me how but I wanted to make sure the barrel install was perfect
@@SClivingOutdoors it looks really good brother! I hope todo something very similar
Congratulations sweet looking rifle just a little strange that you haven't shot it but you called it perfect! Hope it shoots great all my proof research barrels do
1/4-1/2” moa with factory rounds.
@@SClivingOutdoors awesome enjoy
nice work man, thats a good looking rifle!
Thank you. It shoots great.
Hey mate what pic rail are u running for the bipod? I got a bt17 for mine but noticed you relocated your swivel back behind the pic rail
That’s where the sling stud was located when I got the stock. I bought a cheap picatinny rail online then worked on it and modified it until it fit like I wanted it and drilled it and screwed it in along with epoxy.
Love what you put together here brother. I have been looking at building something very similar. We will see if I follow though with it though. Haha
About the bottom metal. Don't they give you like shims so that you can get the tolerance just right for the mags? I've been looking at some and they talk about needing to do that because the metal one doesn't flex like the plastic so the tolerances need to be more perfect for the mags to seat. So they give you shims to get it just right. Did you not get those with yours?
I don’t remember any shims. I had to remove a little metal off the underside with a file for it to sit exactly like I wanted it to.
Great video, Sr.
Thank you
I know this is an older video but I am ordering a 20 inch CarbonSix barrel for my Tikka 300WM. Mine will be almost identical to yours when I'm done. How did you decide on a 1:8 twist vs the more common 1:10?
Based on my research a 1/8 did a better job of stabilizing 200gr bullets. My goal is to shoot 200s. Up until this point I have been shooting 180 extremely well. 1/2 to 3/4” moa. Eventually I will shoot 200gr but 200gr accubonds have been tough to find bc of the everything with Covid.
Very nice rifle and thank you for sharing. I did a similar project in 2010'ish. It was a different story then, not many options to choose from, certainly nothing Carbon fiber. Finally McMillan started inletting for Tikka. CDI BDM, Delta Tactical (Australia) Bolt handle and AICS mags.Topped her with an S&B. Great little rifle. Did you upgrade the recoil lug or still using the OEM? I remember many had issues with the OEM lug, especially in the heavier calibers.
Sounds like a good rifle. My gun has the factory lug. No issues.
How was the fit and finish on your stock? I’ve seen on I think it was mesas website the reviews, a lot of people said they had problems with their stock. Some said the recoil lug wasn’t properly on and other said the finish was bad and the fit was off for the contour they ordered. Others gave it 5 stars and said it was everything they hoped for.
I haven’t had any issues. I did have to do a little work to make my bottom metal fit perfectly the way I wanted it to. Some people probably wouldn’t feel comfortable doing that.
@@SClivingOutdoors I can see that. Again, she’s a beauty! I think I’m going to try the grayboe phoenix. It’s about the same price, but I like the fact it has an adjustable cheek rest. Great video and keep putting out great content.
Really nice rifle. im in the middle of turning my old tikka 300 win mag into a full carbon build.
what contour is you barrel and what barrel channel size did you go with on your stock?
I'v got a x-caliber barrel on the way with a .999" contour, im hoping the MESA stock has a true 1.2" barrel channel and i dont run into a none free float problem.
You should be fine. I’m running a .830” sendero barrel with the 1.13 sendero channel.
Is the first upgrade for a budget to replace the Tikka plastic trigger guard with metal bottom?
(I live in Alaska and also only eat what I shoot and most of my kills are less than 200 yards)
I think the first upgrade is a good scope depending on what youre running. Then move to the bottom metal/mag.
ua-cam.com/video/RpOfLmCj1jk/v-deo.html
Did you remove old barrel and install new yourself sir? I'm a lefty, dont have many options and unfortunately I have bottoms in my pockets.
I had a local gunsmith help me and show me how. It wasn’t expensive and a good skill to learn.
@SCliving Outdoors I appreciate you getting back to me sir. What twist rate did you get your carbon 6 barrel in and what grain bullets are you using? No more questions I promise.😁
@@brucemcgraw2329 1/8 twist. I’m currently shooting Federal Premium with 180gr Accubond.
Nice work man. I like the Montana shirt, I live in NW Montana. I just got a Bergara 300 PRC and I am going to pimp it out.
AWESOME! Bergara makes a good rifle!
I love the hunting too
Mate, That is a DARN GOOOD rifle right there! lol but seriously, sweet gun, great video and love that all American accent. Cheers from Straya!
Thanks man. It’s a great gun
That's actually a grouse build! looks so good man, what was the point in buying the tikka first? just for the bolt and receiver? how accurate is it with the short barrel?
I bought the Tikka for under $700. I sold the original stock and barrel to help offset the build price. I saved the bolt, receiver, and trigger assembly. A custom receiver/bolt is over $1000. The gun has a 22” barrel + muzzle brake. It shoots 1/2” moa with off the shelf ammo. Last time out I shot a 4” group at 800yds. Thanks for watching.
How long did it take for ya to get the atlasworx bottom metal in. I'm about to order one for my custom tikka I'm building
I don’t really remember how long it took for it to come. It took a while I think. I think that company is from NZ.
BEAUTIFUL! So , how does she shoot!!??
Great. 1/2” - 3/4” moa with federal premium 180gr accubonds off the shelf. I used this gun on all the hunts on my channel since 2020.
Yum
Just curious why you didn’t want to do the build on your 7mm-08? I was considering doing a very similar build but with that caliber for backcountry hunts
Jaden Wiser I wanted a heavier bullet that hit a lot harder at longer distances on all different sized game.
Sweet build bub
Which Sendero profile did you go with? The Sendero/Proof Prefit 1.13" shank or the Proof Sendero 1.2" shank? I have the same barrel, but 26" in 27 Nosler for my Tikka. Currently looking for a good carbon fiber stock that will fit.
I really don’t remember. I would call carbon six and discuss it with them.
U said that bipod was 40$ how did u do that it looks really nice thx
I bought it off eBay.
Love the channel, found you for searching custom Tikk's, I'm not able to find a lot of reviews on Carbon Six, hows your barrel holding up? Would you still purchase this over a Proof? Thx.
I haven’t had any issues with my barrel. I don’t have any experience with proof, but I’d buy another carbon6 barrel without any worries.
considering a carbon six barrel. have you shot it? if so, does it maintain 1/2 moa like they claim?
I’ve shot a 2” group at 600. I killed a muley at 530 and elk at 575 this year. Both one shot kills. All with factory ammo. 180gr accubonds. Next year I’ll reload and I’ll be shooting 200gr accubonds but I didn’t have time to mess with it this year.
@@SClivingOutdoors so safe to say it'll shoot as advertised. Im probably going to order one, just hoping its not an outrageous lead time.
Do you think using a tikka action for a semi custom build is a better choice than buying a custom action ....... I’m 17 and have a tikka already and ordered an ag stock but just wondering what you think about that
I think the tikka action is phenomenal. Especially when you pair it with their trigger. There are some really awesome looking custom titanium actions out there, but I don’t really know much about them. The price is about $1200 - 1500. It just wasn’t worth it for me especially since I love the tikka actions so much.
@@SClivingOutdoors yeah the trigger on mine is pretty much the best factory trigger I’ve felt ...... thanks
How’s this rifle treated you? I’m looking to build something exactly like this.
No issues. It’s an awesome gun. If you look at my hunting videos over the last 3 years almost every western big game animal has been killed with this rifle.
@@SClivingOutdoors great to hear!!
Philosophical question: is it still the same gun?
You can make that decision. If you asked 100 people you’d get 100 answers. It doesn’t really matter to me. It does exactly what it’s supposed to.
Did u spin the barrel off and if so how hard was that I have same gun and want to do something like this
I actually had a gunsmith pull off the barrel and put the new one on. That’s the only thing that I paid someone to do. I watched him put the new barrel on just so I could learn. He said he did not have any issues removing the old barrel. Because everything went smoothly it was pretty cheap also.
Did you have to bed the action to the stock?
No
dude...good...job man!!!!
Thank you
Great job!!!
Did the bolt fluting increase or decrease action smoothness? I want to flute mine but i dont want the action smoothness to decrease
It didn’t affect mine at all.
Do you remember how man in-lbs you torqued the scope rings on the DNZ scope mount? Thanks!
I dont own a torque wrench. I just tighten it all down tight and locktite it. Never had anything come loose.
Hello great video. Very illustrative. I’m no the same proceso to change the same Tikka in a better hunting rifle. Quick question how difficult was to change the barrel? I have heard that those tikka barrels are a pain in the but to remove. Thanks.
I actually had a local gunsmith take the original barrel off and put on the new barrel to make sure everything was done correctly. It wasn’t very expensive. He said the original barrel came off with no problems.
Your groups in target..?? Thank you my friend.. more blessing..
1/2” - 3/4” moa with factory ammo off the shelf.
Great Video Congratulations
Thank you
Class build and best of luck with it. How does the 300wm do with a 22" barrel?
It’s a tack driver
Does your bolt handle have any play in it ? Mine feels pretty damn loose but I also have it fluted ..... just not sure how normal it is
Mine is rock solid. No play at all.
Well done!!
Thank you
Fluting the bolt. Did it still have the same smoothness the Tikkas are known for?
I like a light package but not the hollowness of the butt. Is it solid, hollow or filled withe foam
The fluting did not change the smoothness of the bolt. The factory stock is hollow. my stock feel solid but I have not remove the butt plate to look.
Just found your site, what did you drill into ? The Receiver or the stock to mount the picatinny?
The stock
Since u have been hunting with the gun for awhile what ammo u using
I’m still currently using 180gr AB. I am considering changing to 200gr terminal assents bc of the availablity of Accubonds and my gun really likes the Terminal Ascents.
Is the atlasworx bottom a drop in or does it need to be modified? Thanks.
It is a drop in. I did a little modifications on the underside of the bottom metal for my aftermarket stock for it to sit the way I wanted it to.
How much does this gun weigh? What kind of accuracy are you getting?
Weighs a 8lbs 10oz. 1/3” - 1/2” moa with factory rounds.
@@SClivingOutdoors very nice and thanks for the reply. That’s a good shooter for sure. Not bad weight either.
@@SClivingOutdoors is that 8lb 10oz with scope or bare gun?
@@sethkaiser8378 that’s everything. Rifle, scope, mounts etc…
@@SClivingOutdoors that's dang good. Your build has definitely inspired a lot of men with now pissed off wives lol. Can't wait to start a 280ai build similar. Any issues with your mesa stock, ergonomicly speaking? I'm on the fence with the mesa stock and an ag composite stock.
I was really surprised at how heavy it was with how much carbon fiber there is. Is that include the bipod?
The difference is it feels very solid with most of the components you want for a long range bench gun including bull barrel accuracy in a 9lb gun. The same gun made with normal components weighs about 13 to 14lbs.
@@SClivingOutdoors from your targets it turned out awesome........ But like everyone else I want a 3# .......300 wm....... And it shoots like a 22 lr. Lol realistically I'd like to to be around 7# . But I really did like your project

Hi what is your CF barrel contour and which barrel contour option did you choose for Mesa stock? Thanks,
Dan Lin my barrel contour is Sendero with the prefit Sendero channel. You should always call the companies before ordering though to make sure your combination will fit
Nice good job like it
Thank you
Is your barrel a prefit barrel or did you get it spun up by a gunsmith?
Prefit
@@SClivingOutdoors how does it shoot for you? Have you had any issues with fliers, poi shifts, or any accuracy issues at all?
@@sagespinner9526 the gun shoots great. I don’t have any issues with it. There is an updated video on my channel. Like all guns it likes certain bullets more than others. It shoots accubonds excellent. ELDX’s were awful.
@@SClivingOutdoors ok thank you for your prompt replies. Working on a rifle currently and I’m debating wether to just buy a prefit barrel or find a decent local gunsmith to spin a blank for me.
One more question because I love the rifle and I am doing the same kinda build to my 300 I got the same proof barrel but I want to get that stock but on there web site it says 1.13 in shank and the other says 1.2 what option did u get I want to order one
I don’t remember which I ordered. I’d call and talk to them to verify you get exactly what you need.
@@SClivingOutdoorsthx for being so chill love the content keep hunting come to Alaska and get a moose sometime that would be a rad video
@@HarvestAlaska no sweat. Good luck with your build. Let me know if you have any more questions. I’ve been to Alaska three times twice for Sitka Blacktail and once for black bear. Moose and Caribou up there are on the list at some point.
Looks good, how does it shoot?
Under 1/2” moa with factory ammo
Great rifle looks amazing. I am thinking about marking a custom tikka t3 7 REM mag how much did your one cost.
I don’t talk about money in the comments but I listed everything out so with a little research you can get a general idea. Good luck. Have fun.
@@SClivingOutdoors ok thanks very much
Great video! So helpful. Quick question on the barrel installation. Did you do that yourself using a set of go/no-go gauges or did you simply “plug and play”? Congrats on the hunt!
You definitely have to use the go/nogo gauges. But it fit my barrel fit absolutely perfect. However, the difference between the 2 gauges is only 4/1000s of an inch so if you buy a go gauge you can just put a piece of masking tape over the back end of the gauge and it becomes a no go gauge. If you’d never done it I’d recommend paying a gunsmith but making sure it’s ok if you stay and learn. That’s what I did. Very informative.
Right on! Thx!
Very nice build, why didnt you just buy a bare action though and save yourself a little money?
I saved myself money by buying the whole gun. I paid around 650 for the rifle I believe then sold the barrel and the stock for about $130 combined so I was in the bolt, receiver and trigger a little over $500.
Nice rifle. Is that Pattern B High Helix for your bolt fluting??
I don’t remember. I just picked the one I liked and ordered it.
Nice job. Is the stock alpine?
Yes
@@LBZOverlander depending on distance and conditions you can see the vapor trail
Curious choice on the red on the bolt
Red is my favorite color so I decided to paint the shroud.
Nice ass rifle bud. What height dnz rings did you go with? I’m doing an almost exact build lol
Medium I think, but I did a lot of research before I bought it to make sure it was the right size.
What did the build ending up costing you excluding the price of the rifle?
Sorry man. I don’t discuss that kind of stuff with people. I talk about all items used in the video. With a little research you should be able to get a general idea of cost. Thanks for watching.
Which contour did you choose for the stock barrel Channel. They have two options for proof barrels
I cross-referenced the carbon six barrel contour measurements against the proof barrel contour measurements.
@@SClivingOutdoors so you had the barrel when you measured it? The only one on their website doesn’t list a tikka shank diameter.
@@SpudOutdoors are you wanting to put a carbon barrel in the factory stock?
@@SClivingOutdoors thinking of going the same route you did but with a 7 rem mag. But a longer barrel. Probably a 24”. Carbon 6 seems to be the best direction for a barrel just wish they had more documentation on the full contour for the tikka. I wanted an AG stock but they want you to buy through a 3rd party for them to make it which cost more than just buying through them. So keeping the Mesa stock as my backup option if I don’t get the price I want for the AG stock.
@@SpudOutdoors I believe the contour on my barrel is sendero and it fits perfectly. I think the proof and c6 are pretty close in their measurements for the different contours
OH btw, where did you get that barrel from?
Carbon 6
Do you have a video on how it runs? Or am I missing it?
I just posted one yesterday.
I love that gun look very cool
Thanks
What height are those DNZ mounts? I have almost the same setup and I just ordered medium height.
Medium is what I have
@@SClivingOutdoors Thanks!
to make your gun PERFECT reload
I’m planning on it bc I can’t find the exact round I want to shoot, but the gun currently is 1/4-1/2” moa.
What's the ballistics of 300 WM through 22 inch barrel
Currently with factory ammo it’s 2800. I’m going to film a range video today. I’m going to be shooting custom loads this fall, but I haven’t been able to work up the loads and do everything yet.
I would have done the exact same thing
Nice hows it shoot
Very very well
