From my research, you have to change the barrel nut.  Otherwsie, it's the https://blklblbipod.com/products/

My gawd… how long is that barrel.  Looks like you're halfway to the target.

Ericbc7 – You're not married, are you?  Or do you have a hideaway for new firearms?  My wife gets suspicious anything I rearrange weapons in the gun-safes.  She assumes I'm making room for a new purchase. 😉

IMO – Not many of the brand-unique forums, e.g., Beretta, Remington, Mossberg, SigArms, etc., do well as a standalone but persevere on sub-forms, e.g., Snipers Hide, AR15.COM, 1911.COM, etc.

If enough people complained maybe Beretta/Tikka would send out replacement springs.  Like with the bad-design/placement of the A1 QD swivel hole on the stock, if no one complains… ???

A spring change? Part number? ???

My LH A1 has a Spuhr 4602 20MOA with Vortex Razor 4.5-25, very happy with combination, SOLID.  Adjusted trigger for lighter pull, Sterk bolt, Pic M-LOK rail for bipod.

Lapua brass, CCI BR4, 140gr ELD-M, breaking in barrel and starting load workup.  H4350 – 3x fouling shots, clean.  41.1gr, +.2gr till 41.9gr, clean after each load.

NOTE: 3 shots on… Read more

LH Rifle came in.  The only difference is the left hand receiver/bolt, folding stock mount, and cheek piece.  They even used the same buffer tube and stock.

Please, quit beating a dead horse.  The issue, pro or con no longer serves any useful purpose.  :-X

I believe Sako is providing a generic T3x manual for the A1.  The A1 employs quick-detach swivel mounts on the stock and the accessory M-LOK quick-detach swivel mount for the handguard.  You have to purchase a M-LOK swivel stud or picatinny rail mount for bipods.  Here is a compromise – GrovTec Bipod Stud Mount M-Lok

A Harris bipod, preferably with lock handle for swivel, or a Primos shooting monopod would work.  I think a monopod is better for hunting.  Scopes selection to budget, game, shooting, hunting environment, target distance, etc.  Sorry, your question on scopes is equivalent to “I want a automobile.”  More info is needed.

Anyone posting, please provide as much info as possible.  Just saying .308 or not providing barrel length,  stride case brand, primer small or large makes it difficult  to provide load data and often dangerous if duplication  is attempted.

I thought the same thing.  I posted a few items but until my rifle arrives…

Maybe Snipers Hide Tikka forum where people go.  I see daily postings.

If it wasn't form the spam traffic in Korean the forum would be dead. ::)

Thanks, I agree, that sounds about right.  And the same for the barrel plate, at least until we hear otherwise.  I'm going to keep pushing Sako/Tikka/Beretta.

I just found out from my dealer my LH A1 won't be available until Aug/Sep.  :-

Conaso…  Sorry, I meant to include a response to your disassembly question.  Yes, you have to remove the hand guard, lock plate, and then the action/receiver screws.  The first time it seemed like a bit of a pain in the arse, but having done it several times it's not that much of an issue.

You'll need a T25 torx bit/wrench for the screws on th…

I NEVER use an social media, never will.  I like the forums.

I just found out today the LH Tikka T3x TAC A1 will not be available until August/Sept. :-[

Did you try a little **Blue** Locktite?

BTW – How much did you have to remove to get to the trigger assembly, e.g., handguard, barrel nut lock-plate, and replace the trigger spring?  I bought a spring from Elay Precision and I'm curious how much work is ahead of me.

It's only in this category, all others are O.K.  Geez, Korean spam, who woulda thought!  It looks like it hit on June 1st.  I thought there would be more activity on this forum.

Try snipershide tikka forum.  I searched the web but couldn't find an answer for you.

If I were you I would not put cheap Chinese rings on my rifle.  If cost is an issue wait until you have a few more dollars.  Go to Beretta website and get the SKU# for the mag you want and search for best price.  Most 5 and 10 round mags are the same except the is a metal or plastic block to restrict rifle to 3 or 5 rounds.  You can make your own… Read more

Thank you very much.  It's exactly the info I needed.

Far from being an expert, but no one was answering your question… let me try.

I wonder if you measured correctly or used the correct bullet.  The .260 Rem uses a .264 diameter bullet.
Assuming a case-neck thickness of .014, and you didn't “turn” your necks excessively, multiply it by 2, e.g., .264+(.014*2) = .292″  Now subtracting your .288, t… Read more

Here is an article that is good for torque settings for various stocks, mounts, bases, etc.  You just have to convert from Nm.

From what I've read, converts to 45 inch-pounds.

H4350 banned, why?

I bet it's about the left-handed T3x TAC A1 and the some kind of 22LR, probably like the new Ruger.

Recommend you use this online app.

I plan on ordering the same rifle with the Spuhr 30mm 6 MIL/20.6 MOA Unimount SP-3601 and Vortex PST 5-25 Gen II scope.  The Spuhr has a 1.18″ base (rail top) to scope center.  By my calculation the scope cant offset (6″) will work but I'm not sure if it will with the s… Read more
