Tony.H Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 ive got a t3 tikka hunter.223 and i am thinking of having it bedded or doing the job myself depending on how difficult a job it would be, the rifle is accurate enough for me, but if it helps squeeze out any more then thats a bonus, i also want to change the screws over to hex head screws, is there anywhere i can buy theses from?tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Easy to do, but ive done one or two, if your happy with the rifles performance, leave it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6.5shooter Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I ordered action screws for my anschutz from this company last year and upon tightening the head ofthe bolt split! Very poor qualityof steel must have been used! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same thing happened me with one of the cz screws I bought of them. They did send me a replacement screw though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-NZ Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I assume the stock is wooden Tony? Never seen one of those disassembled. From what we've seen of the synthetic ones here (where they modify heaps of them to shortened/suppressed), I wouldn't bother rebedding one unless it was shooting poorly. My personal one is very accurate as std. Here's my son's new one in .260. I decided to bed it as it was a PSE after-market stock and couldn't be certain the action was sitting perfectly. Anyway, this is the one and only group I fired after getting it on paper. I think I can live with 10mm Chris-NZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
