No Kidding? 10-4. I'm very please with my LH Predator. Would be kinda a direct Double Up. But after seeing 7lbs 14oz All Up....my Predator has to be over that now. Without stock pack....which ugly and clumsy....I seem to find hand to drop a few extra rounds in, foam plugs and a torx wrench. Nice rig
Please God, give me some good tags this year....

I have both the Tikka and a MRC in 6.5 inbound. I'll sell whichever one isn't my favorite. The MRC arrived, but had a feed problem and is back for rework. It actually felt very good, maybe a little muzzle heavy, but I think if you fluted the barrel it would be perfect.

Was an anticipated delivery date ever indicated on the preordered LH Creeds?

I got an e-mail this morning saying my order was being processed. Looks like the rifles made it in a bit earlier than expected.

Does this .405 Winchester make my butt look big?

I haven't received an email yet, but you can bet I'll probably look every hour. I better get some rings and bases in-bound.

So it looks like Sako Optilok rings and bases are in pretty short supply, especially the stainless ones. Any bases and rings that folks think are just as good or better?

I have been using Warne rings for the Tikka receiver. No need for a base.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

Quesion for you guys on the Tikka? Do the receiver base screws holes need to be enlarged for an 8X40 screw?
