Nice. I'm interested in how you like the reticle.

I'll get y'all a bunch if you want them. I'll check tomorrow to see what I can come up with on price. This would be great, if its not too much of an issue.

Thinking a special run of 6mm Creed in 7.7 twist should be up next.

Cannot hardly wait, going to be 22-250 rich when this shows up.
My LVSF is getting a new 1:8 barrel as we speak, once this Tikka shows up I will have two fast twist rifles to play with. But I am sure my son will "borrow" the Tikka a bunch.
I just got some Lapua Scenar 77gr today for LR steel banging.
I already have a bunch of 53 TSX's and 55gr GMX's that should work for hunting loads.
I will keep a look out for the 62gr TTSX's and procure when opportunity presents.

I've seen the O'Neill Ops guys using 50 gr. VMax in their 8-twist 18-in. /250 w good results on coyotes.
How light a bullet can you push in this twist and maintain accuracy and bullet performance?

Hey guys I'm working on a some glass and mounts for the new rifle. I'm pretty sure what scope I'm getting but what mounts do you guys prefer for this Tikka? I'm a Talley guy but I'm always looking for a better fit!

I use and recommend Warne QD rings for the Tikka receiver. It comes with the recoil pin that fits in the receiver top. 1" or 30mm.
