Ronin Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Tikka T3, Action lug abutments and face trued, bolt lugs trued and lapped. Sassen 6.5mm 8.5 tw stainless barrel, profiled at medium palma, finished at 26 inches, M14x1 thread and protective cap. Barrelled action coated in satin black by Liquid Steel Design (who do all my coating work) Stock is PSE Composites E-Tac 3 with new design for-end, stippled finish in coyote tan - really excellent stocks Bottom metal is by Atlasworx Action fitted with Contessa 20 moa Rail (also coated satin black) The contrasting light and dark look very good (in my view), hopefully the new owner will report back with some groups once they mount the scope and shoot a few rounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borisserge Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Nice work, i really like pse's upgrade too to their stocks. The "monies worth" for the front bipod is one thing, but i wouldn't want to carry the rear ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Tikka T3, Action lug abutments and face trued, bolt lugs trued and lapped. Thats interesting, how untrue were they to begin with to actually need such truing up work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejg223 Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Good work Andy, the surface coating on barrel looks very nice, is that a paint ? edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted May 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Coating is Cerakote and a lovely even finish applied. The action lugs were not in contact (5% / 60%) split and the face of the action wasnt true - so all faces were cut. Now the lugs are touching evenly.
