    I have bought several guns on line due to availability and have had no problems. In fact, I just bought one from you last week and everything worked out great.

    I have had the same problem with my CTR. I removed the spring from the magazine release and stretched it a little. So far that has worked but I have only fired about 20 rounds so far. I also found a spring assortment at Brownell's and have that on order. Hopefully there will be a spring in the kit that will work for me.

    Tikka Shooters Forum favicon icon 1 Bullseye

    First focal plane has become dominant in Precision Long Range shooting matches. I would recommend that you consider that. If you have a reticle that you can use for windage it will only be accurate at a specific magnification if you go with 2nd focal plane. If your reticle does not have a windage scale it is a non issue.

    Check out the SWFA Super Sniper line. The fixed power scopes are only $299. I have the 10X, 12X and 3-15. All three work great. the 3-15 is $699. I know the name sounds hokey but the glass is good and the dial up on the turrets is totally repeatable.

    I have had very good luck with IMR4350 on multiple rifles. It may not be as temperature stable as H4350 but accuracy usually isn't lacking. How do your primers look after firing. Are the indentations consistent? I had a rifle with a week firing pin spring that had a lot of variability before I replaced it. Granted it was an older rifle but something worth checking. Good luck.

    Tikka Shooters Forum favicon icon 1 Bullseye

    I would also recommend the SWFA 10X for what you describe. I have a 10X, a 12X and now a 3-15X SWFA and they are awesome scopes for the price. Although you only describe shooting paper at up to 100 yards, if you get the opportunity to shoot at some longer ranges, you will really appreciate the tactical knobs. SWFA is also really cool about trade-ins so if your ship comes in and you want to trade up at some point, they will give you fair value for your trade-in.

    I just put a brake on mine. I'll have to save up for a suppressor. Any problem with the suppressor threading up to the rifle? I noticed when I put my brake on that the threads are pressed in and not cut so at first the brake was stopping on the thicker shank rather than on the shoulder like I wanted. Took me a while to get things right. Live and learn!
