Very nice work. Curious what a rig cost?

Very nice. I love my Tikkas too. Slickest bolt action I've ever handled. And as accurate as all get out.
I can see the break on 7mm Magnum and mane a light 270, but a 25-06 just doesn't kick that hard and can have a lot of gass going out brake making it awfully hard on the ears. I've yet to be on a varmint hunt that several folks didn't wear ear protection some of time.
There may not be any guns with too little recoil but there are guns with too much noise. I know I would have lost the chance for a shot at several coyotes if finding and donning ear protection had Ben added to the drill of stopping the truck, getting out, getting off the road and taking the shot. It often added a couple a hindered yards to a shot out pickup windoe from the road. Than void be a very expensive shot in some place I hunted the game warden, Sheriff's department and Judge all took really expensive exception to strangers shooting from vehicles on their roads. A couple left you walking with your cloths and a hefty fine as well taking your guns, vehicle and anything else related to hunting. I thing someone shot some of a Judge's cattle and trespassed on his hunting place.

Some people like to feel their pace maker thumping, make you feel alive.
I think it's nice to have the option to put a brake on whatever rifle you want. Who cares? I can understand a public or private range etiquette of not shooting around people with it. I shoot out in the wide open on blm land and I don't hunt from a truck so I'm always out in the open.
I have a lightweight 25.06 that I shoot nothing but max loads out of and ...I wish it had a brake on it.

I had a ruger mk II that with 75 grainers pushin 3700 fps kicked worse then my 116 375 ruger pushing 300 grainers at 2660.

He clearly has good taste but I personally would need a box with all 3 types of ammo or sure as shootin' I'd grab the wrong type at least once! Assuming he doesn't take all three rifles at the same time?!
If I were road hunting (something I've been known to do in the past) I'd be wearing my Dillon Electronic muffs all the time. Out of the truck as well. These days I don't usually shoot anything (including .22 lr) unless I have plugs & muffs on. There isn't that much of my hearing left and I don't intend to lose any more! Too many jet airplanes, rock `n roll and guns in my past!
Cheers,

Very nice rifles! I'd take one (or three) for sure
Those triplets are beautiful.
