I will stick with a Tikka over the Remington. I only wish they would make it in a 7mm-08.

Exactly . . . I've had the Magpul stock in my hands. IMHO, it's anything but stellar. Cheap POS for wannabees.

Me too. Tikka CTR does it all at just 7.5 lbs.

That's one of the ugliest damn rifles I've ever seen.

But, but, it's a Magpul.

I can't warm up to them. Maybe if I held one it would be different.

Oh my Christ that rifle is hideous. What is that goiter hanging down from the stock in front of the trigger guard?

Another green turd. They'd sell more guns if they ditched 2/3 of the catalog and sold $300 SS ADL's

If only one could short Remington company stock. What a POS
Not near as ugly as a blued/wood M70....

CTR for the win...

10 rounds of whoop ass.... Give me the CTR any day.

Dog... How much did you have to pay that chick to let your mug in her hero shot?
That thing is 10 ways of ugly.

Tikka was even smart enough to get on the Creedwagon...

Sometimes being left handed isn't so bad. The crap they dump on you righties is pretty bad.
Remington is in dire need of an overhaul....
Posted By: 16bore Re: Big Green is Making a CTR - 01/14/17
I'd put you at the top of the list to fix it too....
I expected this reaction!

Wouldn't swap two of those critters for my Tikka C(oo)TR .260.

She So Fine!

ETA: Sure wish Magpul would make CTR and extended regular T3 mags!

Is the balance on your Tikka towards the nose or the ass like a SL?

Gonna be awhile before I buy any new manufactured Remington products.

I was going to type to many accountants in the gun biz, but I think it is worse than that. Maybe its foreign influence or something. Wish I had an answer.

I wish sometimes we could go back in time. Growing up in the 60s here in Connecticut before the great liberal revolution I knew guys who worked in all the major companies, Winchester, Marlin, Remington you name it they had a presence in my club and it was exciting to see and hear them talk. We will never see that again I am afraid.

Sorry for delay, 16! Slightly nose w Six rounds in mag, no can. Definitely nose with Harvester screwed on. 10 rounds in it more even, but then it's nearly 10.5 pounds.

Don't forget the tactical bolt handle...

Remington has been doing this for almost 20 years with their LTR and then later their XCR CT.
Posted By: JPro Re: Big Green is Making a CTR - 01/16/17
It is still a "parts rifle", yes. Dull stainless would have made much more sense. I've got a 22" SS 7005R in that Mag-Pul stock and find it quite user-friendly, even though it is not visually stunning......

Wish big green would start clambering the 6.5 Creedmoor
Posted By: kingston Re: Big Green is Making a CTR - 01/16/17
They do, it's call the 260 Rem.

Goiter. LOVE IT. grin

Looked at a 6.5 CM CTR last night. First thought was "how the hell is this so light?" The new T3x's are nice. New stocks are money and dig the modular grip deal.
CTR shown in my posts above.... today....

Posted By: 16bore Re: Big Green is Making a CTR - 01/20/17
Damn, 5 misses. Nicely done..
How about 4 direct hits... and one "miss" with the load it's actually sighted in with? Miss was assuredly mine, not the gun's....

About 5 minutes prior to the one above...
