[QUOTE="dgogogomez, post: 2388691, member: 119124"] I’m looking at building my first rifle. I have a 300WM for hunting elk, but would like something with less recoil, can be used to practice long range, and is more enjoyable to shoot so I can work on my fundamentals. I’ll use it at the range and to hunt Pronghorn and Deer (maybe) with it. 6mm/.243 is the smallest caliber we can hunt big game here in CO. I’m thinking of the below setup. Thoughts on the caliber or setup? Anything I need to double check given the below list? Can I use AICS mags with this? Thanks and Happy New Year!!! PBB Tikka T3X prefix SS Matte 26” 6mm Creedmoor, 3R 7” twist, #3 sporter, flutted. I can wait the 12 weeks or so. EC muzzle tuner JA Tikka T3X SA 308 action, flutted bolt w/mag Trigger - Will try the Tikka out that comes with the action. Chassis - MPA BA Hybrid(or lite?) or KRG Whiskey 3 Scope -TBD [/QUOTE]
