CZ 452 American. Hawke Panorama EV 4-12x50 AO IR, and SAK moderator. Using Winchester subs. With lighter trigger spring. Sub MOA 99% of the time using Winchester Subs.

I found good results in my Tikka T3, 1 in 8 twist with Lapua brass, 55 V-Max bullets, Fed Gold primers, and 25.1 grains of Viht N135! Averaging on the Chronograph at 3200 ft/s. It was my general purpose round for quite a few years, but I've switched over to N133 and 53 grain V-Max, now i can get hold of them!!. I'm more or less happy with the load. With the same velocity as the 55, at 3200 ft/s. Just need a bit of work on the seating depth and it'll be sorted. Chaz

There's always a bad apple or 2 in any group of people, regardless of the subject or sport. But also you don't know whats going on in peoples privates lives, and families. Don't get me wrong, he may just be an A-Hole. But who knows. Who knows??? Chaz.

I've been using N135 for my Tikka T3 1 in 8 for numerous years. I haven't got the COAL, but the bullet was only a few thou from the lands. The load was N135 at 25.1 grains, Fed Gold primer, Lapua brass, and a 55 grain Hornady V-Max. And got 3250 fps. Suits me, may not suit others. Good luck! Chaz.

Very nice. What make and model is the stock? Cheers.

I also have a Tik Tac1, in 6.5CM. A cracking rifle alround. 👍

Me too.... What sort of realistic range and speed are we looking at. It's been a while....

Happy Xmas folks!

Nice Stock, Here's a bump.

Very nice indeed! 👍

I have a Tikka TAC 1 in 6.5CM, 1 in 8 twist. I've had great success with Viht N150 with Sierra 130 TMK and Lapua 139 OTM Scenar I've also had good results with Hornady 143 ELD-X. The Sierra 130 TMK, and 139 Scenar were easy to work up a good accuracy node. The 143 ELD-X was a right pain in the arse, but eventualy i found an accuracy node. All were around 2800 fps. I want to get decent barrel life..... I hope that helps a little...... Cheers Chaz

British Engineering at its best!

I was advised by the shop armorer to buy the Bergara, but bought the 6.5 Creedmoor. And i'm very happy with my choice in spades as they say....

SOLD.

Hi, Steve, I've not received your pm? Cheers Jamie

Open to sensible offers.

Bump.

I've decided to go with a different bullet in my 6.5 Creedmoor, so i have 2 new sealed boxes, of the same lot number. £85 posted, signed for. Also advertised elsewhere.

I was in search of the new alloy made magazines made very well, put put together. They're a 10 shot mag that fit standard, and fit Tikka standard lower mag wells. My request went unanswered, and "Black Rifle" showed them as out of stock at that time. I thought i'd give Pete a call anyhow, and he did me a good deal on an ex demo mag he had. That looked like new to me... He went out of his way to help. And i went ahead and bought the magazine. The quality has to be seen to be believed. And I've used quite a few mags from all makes! I won't give it a second thought where i'll go when i want another another mag! Cheers Pete! Chaz

Got the brass, all wrapped up well. Thank-you. Chaz.

I'll take the other 100 sako, i know theyre large primers.

£540 delivered is nowhere near a good price to me! A joiner would do better for the price. And even if not, a £40 Amazon table (which I've bought and decent camping chair, again which I've bought) would cost far less than 80% of the OP's cost. that which promotes growth and vigour to that! Nowhere near a deal in my eyes. But hey folks, crack on and blow you're money.... And yes, my table and chair are rock solid!! But............ Each to their own 👍

I'll reply, no i haven't heard of them. But i've heard of aim sport predator, as i use one on my 6.5CM. You can buy different threaded bushings for different threaded rifles, but the stainless steel bushings are not cheap at £40 a go.......... But I've used my 6.5CM mod with and without the Predator, and you can certainly tell the difference... Not cheap, but in my opinion worth the cost.. Although, you must do your research, as some of them do not sit squarely on the rifle and can cause bullet/moderator strikes, that cause chaos with accuracy... Mine is fine but others have not been so lucky. Just one opinion... Cheers Chaz.

That is one sweet looking bit of kit. I'm very envious......

I have the 4-16 mag version of this scope on my .22LR for around 7 years now and it's been a cracking scope with a nice reticle.
