Dang factory Tikka (granted it's the T3X TAC A1) is the most accurate factory rifle I have ever seen. Accurate to where I competed quite favorably with it all last year against MPAs and full customs. On the other hand, I had a 6 Creedmoor built on a worked Rem action, Krieger barrel and...

You have clearly defined a need for 3 more rifles.

Thanks for looking. Sold pending inspection by the purchaser.

I have a Leupold fixed 12x scope for sale. 40mm adj objective The 1" tube has a glossy finish with very light ring marks. There is a very small blemish on the turret visible in the last photo. Turrets are the low profile, coin adjustable style in MOA and the reticle is the fine duplex. The...

I have a Leupold VX-II up for sale. 6-18x with 40mm adjustable objective. It has a 1" tube and has a matte finish. Finger adjustable MOA target knobs and the reticle is a fine duplex. Comes with original box, sunshade and handbook. The tube has some very light ring marks but no scratches...

Another vote for the MS Sporter. Inexpensive, easy to use and accurate. Accurateshooter.com recently published an article comparing the MS and Labradar and Oehler. Bottom line the MS and Labradar were equally consistent. Oehler was consistent too, but its reported velocities were offset a...

Your goal for consistency is moving you in the right direction. A couple of questions though: 1. What type of rifle is this? And how much have you experimented with finding a really accurate load other than going with 10 thousandths off the lands? 2. Did you use the Hornady threaded case to...

If factory ammo is a concern for the 6mm Creedmoor, I'd like to point out that Berger offers a terrific option for those looking for an accurate target load. Berger loads their 105gr Hybrid target bullet in Lapua cases and Grafs has them listed for $28.49/box when you buy 3 or more boxes...

I built my 6 Creedmoor for prairie dogs at long range in windy South Dakota after I saw how the little .22 caliber bullets get blown around up there. The Creedmoor worked very well for its intended purpose. I have loaded the Berger 105 hybrid and the Sierra 107 MK and both do very well and are...

Armageddon Gear cover for my SiCo Omega. It's for a bolt gun and mirage was terrible before I got the cover. But the cover does act as an insulating blanket, so I pull the cover back to let the suppressor cool off between strings of fire. For full auto I don't think I would bother with a...

I try to buy American when I can, especially in the area of firearms accessories. In the area of accessories there are some very innovative products coming from small American companies. Sawtooth rifles, Armageddon Gear, RRS to name a few that I have patronized recently. But I have to...

Adequate? Yes with an appropriate bullet. But there are better choices unless it's the only rifle option you own or have a problem with the recoil of a larger caliber. FWIW I'm a fan of the 6.5 caliber. My sheep rifle is a 6.5 Swede on a Rem action (and it was a one shot kill) and my PRS...

I'll be doing load development tomorrow with the MS to verify velocities since I'm switching primers. Won't be too concerned with POI or even group size at that point. Then the suppressor will go back on and I'll verify where the groups are relative to my original point of aim. Bottom line...

I'm also using the Sico Omega on my precision rifles. Initially loads were developed before I had the suppressor and both rifles are extremely accurate. Accuracy did not diminish once the suppressor was installed but the POI did shift by about 1" at 100yds. I rezeroed with the suppressor and...
