I have a david tubb speedlock firing pin assembly here for a R 700. I ordered 3 of them for myself and 2 mates . I had mine in my 204 but when I used cci br4 primers I would get the odd one that failed to ignite on firing. It never happened with any other brand of primer. My mates never had any issues with theirs in a 220 swift and a 308. Anyway its sitting in a drawer here so your welcome to it if you want to try it.

I have 3 krg bravo stocks. One on my rem action 204, one on my tikka 308 and the other on my tikka t1x . They just seem to fit me perfect and I can't say there's anything I don't like about them.

Tikka T3/595/695 trigger compatibility
palo replied to skany's topic in Varmint Rifles & Heavy Plinkers
Edinburgh rifles are selling the tikka 2 stage triggers. He says they fit the 695 and 595 as well so it might be worth a look . -
I was shooting my Tikka t1x today at 50 yards. I was shooting from my 5 leg viperflex sticks. I shot two 5 shot groups with Cci standard and one group with Cci subs. Very pleased with the results.

www.murphyprecision.com offer this service. They are in the US but do ship overseas. Their rails are more expensive than some but they are top quality .

I bought loads of stuff from them. Only had one item not delivered. Tracking said it was delivered in the USA so I got a full refund.

After buying a Tikka T1x and putting a krg bravo chassis on it I wanted a decent scope that I could use for hunting, targets and steel targets at longer ranges. I ended up buying a zeiss V4 6-24x50. Its the model with the zero stop and locking windage turret and ZMOAI-T20 reticle. Parralax goes down to 10 yards. Its an expensive scope for a 22 but I love it.

That was a few years ago with the old green box eley subs. They were great but the new ones are terrible
-
The newer white box eley subs are crap. CCI subs are doing OK in my tikka t1x

Audere Tikka T3x Rail 20 MOA Picatinny
palo replied to Jeffo1960's topic in Suppressors / Moderators, Bipods, Anything else
The genuine tikka rail is fine. If you want the best have a look at the murphy precision rail from the USA. -
Your objective bell should measure 58.4mm so your objective will be sitting 14.2mm lower than the bottom of your scope tube. You will need a ring height of 19 or 20 mm to give the clearance you want. Some rings give measurements from the bottom of the tube to the top of the rail and some give the measurement from the centre of the tube to the top of the rail. If the measurement is from the centre of the tube you will need a height of 34 or 35mm.

Cheers . It's factory threaded 1/2x20

I wouldn't mind trying a tuner on my Tikka T1x. What type would be recommend for that rifle and where would I get one ?
-
My mate has a S20. There was an issue with the front rail slot that was out of spec so he used the next slot which was fine. No issues with the magazine, it feeds great. It is also a very accurate rifle but i wouldn't swap my tikka ctr in a bravo chassis for one. I would go for the stainless tikka as i have seen and heard of barrel pitting issues with the carbon steel versions.

New rifle for target work, help me decide.

The sako firing pins work fine with the small primer brass -
The old ones would group under half an inch at 50 yards but I'm lucky if i get the new 38 grain to group inside one and a half inches .

Tikka T3, AICS bottom metal and mag, GRS Bifrost

This is what I'd do. -
This is a good video on setting up your full length die

Best to call gmk as I always found them helpful with questions like this one. I would think a 7mm 08 in ctr would be a special order but they will let you know for sure. I have one in 308. Great rifle.

I don't think you will get them in the UK. They won't ship internationally either but I just got a set posted to Ireland using the Irish Addresspal service. This works as they give you a US address to use and they forward them on to you for a fee. I'm sure you must have a similar service in the UK. They are great caps although they are quite noisy when opening and closing if that would be a concern.
