I have the Tikka Tac A1, and this thing is a tac driver! With hand loads, an EC Tuner break, and a steady hand, I averaged a sub-.18 mean radius over a 25-shot zero. Amazing rifle for the money. With consistency like that, if I perform poorly at a match, it's on me.
If I owned all the "must have" guns, the "must by" guns, and all the "best" guns these channels tell me I can't live without, I would need a tractor/trailer rig to haul them all. Right now I am looking for the 6.3871 mm Earschplitten Loudenboomer fully semi-automatic 30 round clip belt fed rifle that I MUST have to survive something. BTW: WTF do I find ammo for half these "must have" guns?
Only think about the task to fullfill and choose your toy based on that. 99.9% of the videos on youtube should just be used to see pictures of the desired toy, The 5 most essential parts of shooting are: 1. Shooting position 2. Shooting position 3. Shooting position 4. Trigger control 5. Repetability To learn the basics for precision shooting i recommend to participate in 3 position 50m rifle shooting. It is very affoardable.
@mothman-jz8ug, then you're not looking for a bolt action that would do that. You'd be looking for a belt fed machine gun like an m249 saw. You can load 30 round magazines into it or a 200 round box of linked ammo.
If you're looking for a long range rifle I suggest looking into the Bergara BMP. The rifles are hand made in Spain and have some of the best barrels in the industry. The Bergara is based off of the Remington 700 but is a much better rifle.
There is one case in which this is okay. If you run a clip on night vision or thermal unit the height is 1.54” to center. This NV height is extremely common in one piece mounts but the height of two piece ring sets are extremely inconsistent. So if you are running a clip on i can see why you would have a NV height cantilever mount.
First rifle I ever bought was a Howa 30-06 in 2009. The accuracy is spot on, and definitely sub MOA at 100 out to 300 (furthest my range goes to). I wouldnt trade it for anything
Dang... ya had me at "rifled barrel". Me ol' blunderbuss never had such modern refinements. Anytime Maw wants to make varmint stew I just pack the powder and pour in a handful of gravel... line her up good and touch a match. Works real good exceptin for that time Pa accidentally shot a bear in the backside. I got the gun after the bear et Pa and won't be making that mistake.
Cross owners lighting up sig’s reviews that the accuracy is lacking. Love the Israeli Dan rifle but it’s $9k. The Tikka is my pick. Don’t forget GA Precision. Amazing 3/8 MOA guaranteed. $7k w/ good glass
This is literally one big promo vid. Sounds like they paid you. Maybe give us some honest feedback instead of sounding like you're reading a brochure..
Most long range shooters are not going to take a gas gun seriously. If you go to a PRS match, there might be a couple, but the majority are going to be shooting bolt guns.
@@rvoykin First point I wish to make is that “semi auto” doesn’t equate to gas gun. The second point is that the evidence suggests that semi automatic long range guns generally preform at a similar range of accuracy. You are correct in the assumption that the firearm crowd always seems to put bias above performance.
