Ah! I just got your pm.

I think that was the last new one in the country. The guys at The Shedhorn are A+ good people. 

If you want me to look at it before they ship it let me know.  I love an excuse to go to Ennis. 😀

What happened?

[Jason_McHann]

Beretta is not bring them into the US.  Most here are from Canada.

[Jason_McHann]

Absolutely. I'll verify external dimensions and get back to you.

[Jason_McHann]

The 243 mags should work but you might need to bend in the lips a tad. 

The outside dimensions are the same.

[Jason_McHann]

The laminated Tikkas are definitely heavier than the synthetic.  They are typically 12 oz more.  Most manufacturers don't accurately list their laminate rifle weights because of variations in wood density used in making a laminate stock.

Our Helmick Arms ultra light laminate stocks are actually lighter than the synthetic stock it comes.

A shorter barrel only affects velocity.  The muzzle threads are more designed for suppressors that are common place everywhere in the world except here  😮

Hope that helps

Sweet!  I love 270wsm.  With the Matrix Ballistics bullets, there is no need to have a 300wsm.

[Jason_McHann]

That's a tough one.  I'll keep an eye out for you.

Hi Doug,

Did you get my pm about my inventory of these?

-Jason

[Jason_McHann]

I have stocks available for the 695 and 595.  You can see them right now under http://www.tikkaperformance.com

The site is still under construction but all the stocks available under the T3 can be inletted for the 595 or 695.

Mags are tough.  I have to get them from Beretta and they are not cheap…  If there is enough demand once I am done with the T3 mag solution I am working on I'll work on the 595 and 695 platform.

The thread cut on the T3 tactical and the TRG are the same so the brake would be interchangeable.

If you have a varmint, non-threaded model, I recommend the HSS bolt on brake.  Once I torqued the screws down to 50 in/lbs the groups tightened up nicely  😀

I'll be placing another HSS order shortly for anyone wanting to jump in and save some shipping $$$

[Jason_McHann]

Can you email them to me? 

I've loaded some pretty big ones so there shouldn't be an issue.

[Jason_McHann]

48g looks great with almost no vertical stringing.  What were the es/sd like?

It's great when a gun shoots as good as it looks!

[Jason_McHann]

Congrats! Shooting under the chin at 300 yards is an excellent shot.

I know plenty of guys with very expensive customs that can't hold that tight.

Mayne they should buy a Tikka 😀 ;D

[Jason_McHann]

I just want to let everyone know that I am very close to having the store up and running.  After trying to figure it out myself I hired outside expertise.  He promises to have it up and running next week!
