Ronin Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Client passed me a very tired Tikka 595 barrelled action in 243 for re barrel, rework and general overhaul. The rifle was stripped, cleaned and assessed, then a 8 TW Sassen Cut Rifled Stainless standard Tikka Hunter profile barrel was fitted and chambered in 6.5x47 Finished at 24" and threaded M14x1mm with a protective cap Once proofed, the barrelled action was sent to Liquid Steel Design for coating in Ceracoat (Tungsten Mix) The Finished barrelled action was then set in the standard stock with replacement custom recoil lug and pillar bedding using Devcon The stock had been sent for alteration - addition of cheek riser and revarnish (I don't know who did the work, but its a neat job) To finish off a Britannia Rail was fitted to the action for ease of scope / ring fitting I await update on load development If its shoots as good as it looks, I will be very pleased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
