Remove a bit of material so the barrel is fully floated, this has caused many a T3 to shoot bad , you seam to have been lucky with yours

Hi you have a short action, but really all tikkas are long action there's just a different bolt stop that makes them short or long

Over here in England the number of gun the safe manufacturers quote is for guns without scopes or other accessories fitted , they also have them so close together it would be hard to get them in and out without damaging them , my safe is made to hold 12 , I consider it about right with my 3 rifles with the scopes and accessories fitted but I'm really ocd about them and where I've put it its not easy to get to , I had limited places where I could fit it as all my internal walls are made of compressed straw , and has to be in a room with no direct access to an out side door ,
The police officer who came to check it over , told me he's come across someone that had just been screwed to the wall with every day screws and plastic plugs and heads of bolts stuck over to fool them , which seems to me more trouble than doing it correctly, but saying that we have a special type of idiot are here , I think we specialise in breeding them lol -

Hi I just put the safe where I wanted it used the holes that are there in the safe has a template , mark them , move the safe to one side then drill , I wouldn't use dish soap has it contains a lot of salt and might have a detrimental effect on the safe / floor

Also have a look at sako ,I used them before I start reloading. Also if you use sako keep the brass as its of the best quality, if you don't use it you can always sell it on to someone how does

Hi over here in England we have to have an appropriate safe fitted to a solid wall or floor, the police come around and check it before we even get a firearms license, and the key has to be only available for me to use , the police can come around anytime to check that all the conditions of my license as being followed

It's just a best guess has a friend has a Howa on test with the Grs stock and by reckoning they shouldn't be much difference in lengths between tha Howa and a Tikka

Hi I don't have one myself but it looks to me if the barrel is 24 inch in length the overall length will be about 43 1/2 inch or there abouts

I was going to get the ruger , but once I had a good look at one the quality is sadly very lacking, the creedmore shoots great but the stock is not good at all , my gunsmith as taken a couple apart and in his words the action/ trigger is poor quality , go for the Tikka ,

Hi in the end I've gone for the hornady one , like Eric has said if you break the handle it's through being heavy handed, it's not the strongest handle but it's up to the job if you use it has instructed, also got it at 33% off

Adding anything to the end of a barrel changes the harmonics and so changes where the round hits
