Wilco… Lol I did what I recommended when I was keen on trap shooting.
I cleaned that toilet like it had never seen a scrub brush. I was concerned with our club image and I did not worry about my plans after the match. You have a good opportunity to make an impression. Use it!

Ok Jgg I will do some research and post it here
Can you please post some details here?
Tell us what you want.
For example:
You can get a new Tikka in .260 which is more capable than the Grendel. What is your goal?Do you have an AR style rifle in the Grendel and want to match it with a Tikka?
Let us know.

As a new shooter in a group of experienced ones, you best plan is volunteer to help with the details of the regular day. Offer to help work the targets, clean the restroom (water closet) anything. No one will fault you for working too hard. Now you can listen and research and your shooting partners will respect you and involve you in their discussions and give you priceless advice.
Good luck friend!

The first thing you should do is chat with your friends that shoot the 30 br. They all were in the same place you are at one time. Shoot your .308 a bit with cheap factory ammo. Then after your friends weigh in, pursue the complicated and wonderful 30br.

I am not an expert by any definition but the .308 rim dia = .4728 and creedmore = .4730 according to wiki.
This means you can use the same bolt for either cartridge. You should explore the many and varied website posts dealing with this subject. Good luck friend!

I sympathize with you Sir Ville, Berreta USA is notorious for not sharing information with U.S. Customers. I love Tikka and Sako quality, I just wish the “powers that be” cared as much about the customers!

Magazines can be tricky, you may need to increase your spring pressure or change how it bears on the follower. you could try reversing the spring or changing the follower shape. Perhaps 3-D print a new follower with a thicker tail.
Just brain storming, good luck!

Since factory ammo based on the H&H case headspace on the belt, the primers should show the same dent even if two brands of ammo are noticeably different in length (or even different magnum calibers).
I had a Ruger m77 that developed a weak firing spring and it became unreliable with certain brands of ammo- I assumed that the different primer cups were different thickness or hardness. Hard to say why a new rifle would exhibit this behavior unless like coyote268 suggested, there is some interference in the bolt's workings from debris or machining.
Good luck and let us know what you find.
