Back to the M+ mags, is there a minimum number of orders you'd need? Been really hoping to get one of these soon.
Thanks Darrik,

What level of concern should a potential buyer have when it comes to these cracking, now that some material has been removed from the base? I seem to recall some Talley's cracking on the base. And that was without removing material. Thoughts? https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/9432202/all/Cracked_Talley_LWA few more of these pop up when you Google "Cracked Talley Lightweights"

I’ve owned and used multiple sets that 16Bore’s dad made. None cracked.
I would follow this rule — 22.5 to 25lbs on the base screws, 18lbs on the ring screws. I’d also recommend following the instructions on the little white sheet of paper we send in the package.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

We did over 200 sets without any problems. It's s flat surface to a flat surface. The round receivers and "round" bases leave a little room for variance and farmer tight leads to trouble. Use loktite on the threads or nail polish on the heads, proper torque values and you'll be good to go.

Are these still available? I got "no product found" when I hit the link. Would definitely like to buy the 1" lows.

We sold out of the 1” lows again, but more are on the way. Still have some 30mm lows.

I dont have the rifle yet. Pardon this question, but; could someone tell me if the rifle is already drilled and tapped for these rings?

Actually, these are drilled by Talley to fit the tapped holes in the top of the rail which is part of the receiver of the Tikka. The rings/bases are purchased by Whittaker’s and they have an outside source do the milling of the base. The milling allows the base to set lower on the rail with a lip overhanging the rail just a smidge. Makes a very attractive set-up.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.
