I get the itch again. Since I’ve (regretfully) rid of my precision instruments I get to start from nill - at least equipment and not skill wise.

By now 6.5 Is tried and true with 6 CM n 6 prc sprouting. So 6.5 is my starting point.

Anyone knows where to get Tiikka t3x on MDT acc?

I don’t think I could replicate the great deal I got getting tikka straight from berettausa director so I’m now looking at Bergara BMP, Bergara premier lrp n savage elite precision. Those prob offer best mil discount.
My primary concern is report of poor qc on these ie unreliable chambering w the elite and poor mount w Bergara.
Accuracy is wash on all this at around 0.5 MOA ( amazing how w the technology and some competition now one can achieve that w factory ammo n production rifle)

Anyone play w these recently?
I don’t mind if the action is not as buttery smooth as tikka n it’s not 60 degrees bolt throw but reliability w speed racking n solid scope mount are non negotiable.

FWIW, custom and mpr production are over my budget. Want to use the extra for bipod, level, glass, n Hornady 140 eld
I must be slow. All my online suppliers are sold out. Actually lol 😝 when I saw every single one without fail no longer has 7.62, 9, 5.56, 6.5 etc
I imagine it’s the same with reloading supplies
No point getting the tools without the sustainment. I’m going to stock on lawyers cards and whistles
The words of QP’s whom I sold my stash to are haunting me now.
