Very good info to know. Nice 338! How did so much snow build up on the scope rings? I have a m695 in 338wm and I love it

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but is this what your talking about? Tikka T3 Thumbhole Tactical by Helmick Arms? http://www.helmickarms.com/

I've tried but when I click on anyones profile it says you are not authorized to view this and says an error occurred maybe because my profile is new and I have to hit a minimum post number or something? I saw that he was selling these on ebay for 120 plus 20 shipping but no auctions currently.

Hello? Swept Ball Cerakoted. I Want One. I Need One. Let me know.

The 10011 Limbsaver Pad does not fit the 695 as it is to small and leaves a 1/8 border around the entire pad.

I've got a m695 would it be the same limbsaver pad as the t3 as nothing is made for the 695?

My favorite is by far the swept ball Cerakoted. Let me know how to get one.

So this is amazing. I bought a Tikka m695 over the weekend which was brand new never fired and took it to the range to shoot. The third bullet there misfired. So I put it through again. Again misfire. I'm like wtf. So I put it through again. This time it fires and I go about my day without any more hindrances. Sight in and carry on. After I take the bolt off and try to disassemble it and I cannot get the handle nor firing pin to release. Messing with it for the past two days and watching this video I thought there must be a trick to it as I am doing everything the manual says and this video says over and over with no luck. The manual also says “The handle may be tight, tap with a plastic hammer, for example. So I'm hitting and hitting and the handle begins to move out. This is what I was hoping for! Finally….. Not so fast…. I get the handle completely out and the firing pin assembly still wont budge. I pull as hard as I can and it pulls out. What I discover is a nice bur of metal obstructing the firing pin from moving freely. I sanded the bur off with 400 grit sandpaper for metal with break free as lube and she moves freely and smooth just like in the video. All is well.

I can't seem to get the bolt to release the handle. At 1.52 of this video there is that last click that releases the handle of the bolt and I've tried do what this video says and what the tikka m695 owners manual says and it still wont release. Is there some type of trick to it?
