Very nice the best chassis rifle out there , I've shot one in .308 , trying not to get tempted into getting one in .260 , its the optics for me would break the bank lol

As long has your happy that's all that matters , I'm in England so will always advise Europen maker , People from the Us will say a Us manufacturer , but like I said its down to you and your eyes and budget ??

Tier one / third eye tactical

Check out minox , I have one of the Zp5's but the cheaper scope in the range have great glass
-
You need to use lighter bullets , your twist is not the correct twist to stabilise the 69 heads try between 50 and 55 bullets

Contact mountain tactical see if they can help

The trouble with 5.56 brass is that it's thicker than .223 , so when you load the bullet head it might be expanding the brass too much
Don't be tempted to fire a full blooded 5.56 through you .223 unless is been chambered for the .223/5.56 has the 5.56 produces another 10,000 psi of chamber pressure over a standard .223 -
Good looking dog you have there , I have flatcoats myself , I've mist your posts used to read them on the night shift to pass time lol
-
When you test the Nosler's , when you find a good load try seating the bullets at different depths to tighten the group up even more , in my Creedmore I got the best results seating them .02 from the lands
-
Start low then move higher if need , you won't damage anything starting low , but you can damage stuff by going high
-
If it was my rifle I'd remove the material that's stopping the barrel being fully floated
-
The best powder for any 6.5 is H4350 if you can get it , but I've had good results with Vith 150 for the lighter loads
-
I'd say it would , there the same action on the T3 and the lite it's just a different barrel
-
Here has promised using nosler brass and 140 Gr Nosler custom compitition oal is 2.752 which is way under saami spec . The nosler bullet is 1.307 and is loaded 0.020 off the lands , with 39 Gr of H4350 = .293 moa
-
I'll give everything a measure tomorrow case length / bullet length / oal when made up etc and post it up , but you cannot use my creedmoor as a bench mark for your Tikka as my Creedmoor is a full custom stiller predator action and the bottom metal is one that takes AI mags ,
