I have a Tikka T3 Tac in 308 and am considering rebarreling to 6.5 Creedmoor. Anybody know a good gunsmith who can do this work?
Sam's gun smithing Powhatan VAI have a Tikka T3 Tac in 308 and am considering rebarreling to 6.5 Creedmoor. Anybody know a good gunsmith who can do this work?
Tikka threads are so close to 1 inch 16 threads per inch that most American Gunsmiths just thread them 1" 16 TPI, I've done many of them and Sako's too. Both of my lathes can do Metric threads just a gear change and thread them without disengaging the Half-Nut because the lead screw is inch. There is no need to do it.Not all gunsmiths do metric threads. This one:
Accuflite Arms Home
does, and he works almost exclusively on Sakos and Tikkas. Give him a call.
