All Tikka and Sako rifles are factory test fired so the grime you see in the patch is from that. I think all rifles are in Europe are factory fired so there would not be any machining chips or grease.
You must be living in the middle of nowhere out in no man’s land in order to be able to shoot from your dining room. Also this must be a Second Amendment friendly state. If you live in any DemocRAT 🐀 runs states or cities, there is no way in hell you can do this. Nice tactical rifle from Finland. Thank you for sharing.
All rifles have been fired before an owner receives it. First by the factory and, in most countries, by someone at a ‘proof house’ to ensure our safety.
I work in marine construction. Across a calm bay I watch a man drive a steel drift pin into a floating log. First I see him soundlessly swing the sledge hammer. Then I hear "tank!" as the sound arrives through the water. And lastly I hear "tunk" as the sound arrives through the air.
Is that the Tikka LITE Roughtech that weighs 6.8 lbs? Also, is that the stock muzzle break that it comes with? The recoil seemed pretty mild for a light weight rifle in 7mag!
Hi there well im in my way to pick up me in 6,5 creed same barell you can't go wrong with tikka rifles . I got 5 tikkas already . I can't even walk around my living room because so many red stak hung up on walls lol
I love my 6 Creedmoor. I just spun my PVA barrel on my Zermatt TL3 last year after I ran out of components for my Bartlien in 22-250 Ackley. The factory Hornady 108gr ELD’s are shooting a half minute out of this barrel pretty consistently. Super happy with it. That carbon six barrel is impressive. What ammo or handloads were you shooting? I don’t think you mentioned in the vid.
I’m seriously considering get this rifle in 7mmRm left handed for long range hunting. Do you recomend it.? Being lefty i have only a few rifle/calibers available! I love 7mmRm but that calibre is closing the doors for the most long range shooting rifles availble for left handed! For that i’ve thought in this tikka model! Thanks for share with us this video
I’m not sure they made any in LH yet of the roughtech or veil but heard they was starting this year. Hopefully you find one. I have the veil in 7mag very accurate took 3 deer and a moose with it so far.
I would think that would depend probably on the cartridge. Something like a 28 Nosler or a belted magnum cartridge that burns a lot of powder, generates a lot of heat, that might be the case. I have not shopped this in summertime heat yet, so we will see. so far, things seem to be shooting really well and really consistent.
I was disappointed about the extended magazine to only take 4 rounds with belted magnum leaving wasted space, as you said if I would have knew I would have ordered an other 3 rounds magazine.
"This rifle has not been fired yet..." Yes it is. Every Tikka / Sako rifle is test shot in the factory to check that it shoots under the quaranteed 1 MOA.
It’s not a traditional blue. It’s more like a cerakoted finish. Very durable. I’ve had this hunting many times and at the range, so far the finish is still in perfect condition.
