Is that a fired case though?
It's been full length resized before this test
That was really cool.
Nice overview. Is the trigger guard metal or plastic?
thanks. its aluminium
That’s a nice touch. I’ve been looking at the walnut versions that have recently become available. All wood and metal is a huge bonus for me especially at the lower price point. Even on many of the higher end autoloaders (benelli, beretta, browning, etc) trigger guards are all plastic.
Would the cheek riser by any chance be reversible?
yes it is
Unfortunately the pin attaching the lever to the receiver was seized, couldn't get it out, so had to send it to the gunsmith. Appreciate the video anyway mate, it's super helpful
bugger, hope the gunsmith go it sorted for you.
Thanks for another great video. Glad to hear you're at least still allowed suppressors on your side of the ditch. Are you having as much fun sourcing components over there as we are here on West Island and are ADI propellants available there?
thanks. primers are the battle here at the moment. thankfully i still have enough. the other components have stabilised a bit, but the price had gone way up.
@@pyrate_nz Yeah primers and price are the main problem over here as well. I also lean towards heavy pills and fast twists although I don't own a chronograph or have much to do with computers as I objected to being told in my younger days that my wheelchair meant my future was computers and office jobs. Now everything I wanted to do in life is computerized LoL. I'm currently working on loads for when I can get back to the range try my new.223 with a 1:8 twist for targets and game. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for another great video. Glad to hear you're at least still allowed suppressors on your side of the ditch. Are you having as much fun sourcing components over there as we are here on West Island and are ADI propellants available there?
So do you still trim to length after the bump or is that considered the trim? Thanks for the video!
Just trim as normal. Your trim length is base on the case overall length
Very informative. I was wondering about these. Many thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
How does this work.. if water isn’t a lubricant and therefore extra moisture is being added to the barrel.. the only way I see this working is for the clearing of gasses in the barrel 🤷♂️
nothing to do with lubricating or removing the gas. black powder fouling builds up quick and the moisture keeps it soft. bullets are already lubed. have a look at the full video. cheers
@@pyrate_nz oh I didn’t know you where using black powder rifle.. thanks for the information and explanation
Absolutely awesome product and explanation!
I have a question I forgot to pull back the bolt before I took the forend off and now I reassembled it but now I can’t pull back the bolt with the handle . What am I doing wrong ?
can you remove the barrel or is that locked up too
also does the bolt move a little bit then stop, the bolt catch (release) may be stuck
Can remove the barrel, the bolt is stuck all away forward , the catch release isn’t press able probably since it’s stuck all away forward . But it’s not loose at all
the catch should still opeate even though the bolt is foward. last this to do is remove the trigger group. beyond that you going to need to take it to a gunsmith
@@pyrate_nz thanks it’s all set now I fixed it I had to remove the trigger group
Hey mate, is that a torque wrench/key? And where can I grab one? it looks bloody useful!
just google 'fix it sticks, of check out my videos on the product th-cam.com/play/PL1DaalhTEyGDBCVF0DkybGvkvcnKCOoZ7.html
@@pyrate_nz That's amazing, cheers. They're a little pricey, but I've seen the long range folks pull these out when a scope starts acting a fool. You're a legend! Cheers!
Very helpful, precise, clear, and much appreciated! Clear information well presented that every reloader knows, or needs to know.
Thanks for watching!
What a good showing and beautiful range. The black powder makes it cooler!
thanks. very lucky to have a range like this
huh, my Thompson center TCR22 cycles CCI subsonic and Winchester super suppressed out of the box without mods.
the supressor helps with a blowback action. i had a ruger that cycled subs from factory and one that didnt, but for me its making sure it does it even when shes a bit dirty
Good review. Just got my first Accu-tac last week for my range rifle. Awesome bipods.
Thanks 👍
Very well explained and demonstrated, thanks very much for this
Feeler gauge! Great idea. You Kiwis are good for something after all ;)
ouch, that hurt
@@pyrate_nz haha nah only kidding mate!
👍
What's a substitute for the dummy round?
check some of the other comments, some great ideas. A fired casing works too
I'm so confused, where is the rest of that car?
I have their regular brake. Seems OK but definitely didn't reduce recoil as much as I was expecting.
As far as I know Citadel is made in the Philippines...
a lot of their products are, however the LevTac is made by CBC (aka Rossi) in brazil and they are stamped as such
Always room for improvement, Good job. I am new to reloading and your "reloading Screen" caught my eye. Can you send me a copy of it??
i have a full video on it and a link to download a copy in the description of that video here th-cam.com/video/BQBiDPQNklg/w-d-xo.html
U got any links of everything added to your TIKKA
Sorry. Can't link to firearms related things on YT
@pyrate_nz even for the parts, I listed parts on my videos I never caught any crap from YT. Well darn guess they changed some things. I'm watching your video as speak. Trying to get the name of all the parts and look them up
been stuck for it in tha past. if you cant find somthing message me on IG. one will be in my etsy store. both IG & etsy on my channel page
@pyrate_nz sounds good I followed your insta also. Awesome review I want all your goodies haha.
@@pyrate_nz u gonna do a video of shooting the TIkka?
DISCLAIMER: New reloader here. Can’t you technically put on the headspace gauge, put in a once fired case, zero your calipers and then keep threading in your sizing die until you get -0.002? Would that produce the same results?
that would work too. I like to measure multiple cases to get an average
Are these similar looking to a WW2 Carabine? I'm a reenactor.
yes, they are a M1 Carbine replica
5:27 On your Chassis I see a recoil lug, which mine doesn‘t have. Where can I get one?
For the tikka, it comes pre installed in the chassis. Some other actions you will need to use the factory recoil lug
How many shots you can get out of the factory semi-heavy barrel without overheat and have a POI change?
That will depend a bit on ammo and if you have a suppressor or not. For my hand loads and suppressor around 20 rounds. Going to depend on how quickly you shoot them too. Mine does not shift enough to even worry about.
@@pyrate_nz that is amazing. I have a CZ600 Alpha 308 with semi heavy barrel and shooting Match ammo with muzzle brake, it heats up and create larger groups after 5 rounds
thats interesting. so did a quick google your barrel tapers down to 18mm. the tikka tapers to 20mm at the muzzel. so no substantial diffrence. i shoot 5 shot groups regularly as part of my training. i looked at the groups from last time. diffrence between 1st and 4th group (total 20rds) poi shifted 0.12MOA and group incresed about that same. after that i take a break, change targets etc. some barrels are better than others. my 308 tikka CTR (same barrel contour) behaves almost the same
@@pyrate_nz Thanks for spending time to dig into this matter. Recently I can push the Match ammo accuracy to 0.75 moa and hand load to 0.6 moa, and the last time I fired 20 rounds of 2 rounds per min was a year ago. Maybe my fundamentals were not as good at the time, I will go to the gun range this weekend and reconfirm my claim.
Just an update. Recently I was able to push it to 0.47 moa with factory ammo. Did 3 rounds per min firing rate, and the group start open up and shifting vertically after 12-15 rounds. Some of it could be shooter error too.
Kool review Its a shame the x ray and the bravo don't come with toolless length of pull from the gate. I hate the thought of buying a 450 dollar chassis then spending 300 more on one feature. Then 250 more for a spigot at that point im 1100 in it and I should just buy an ess Still like the product
that is a fair point. i guess when your trying to meet a price point, thats how to do it. Im now at the point in my shooting where i prefer spacers for LOP. set and forget and usally save a bit if weight too
Great and very helpful video! I've been told not to put oil in actions, fluids increasing pressures... would Moly grease work well on the action and recoil spring, or any problems in doing that? Cheers
only if you put a fluid in the chamber. the problem with thick lubricants like grese will collect fouling and jam things up.
I like the iridus industries quick detach shell holders once ammo expended you can replace with another loaded carrier instead of having to single load all over again
So why not just build the reloading table to that height to begin with ?
I mean, I totally understand the quick detach stuff, but I just don’t understand the Ultra mount that brings it way high off the table
you could, but I wanted the press higher closer to eye level. i want the rest of the bench at normal height as its easy to pour powder etc
All the best with your merch from over here on the Mainland/West Island.
Where are these made?
italy
Music sounds like Dokken's 'It's Not Love.'
Good luck with it
Heya mate any idea where one could source a taller front sight to use the iron sights with suppressor? Im in nz
no so easy. you could try a local gunsmith. if no buffalo arms ship to NZ.
@pyrate_nz cheers mate. The reason I ask is I have been using a red dot but it appears I have an astigmatism. Red dot is super blurry at night. Have swapped it out for a holographic one which actually adjust to a lower brightness which has helped a bit.
I have the same problem but its not bad enough to bother me. and basicaly nonexistent with a holographic. may be time to buy some nods and IR designator
What Bushnell model is this?
Forge 4.5-27x
simple and useful modifications especially that arca rail. awesome I love it 👍
This video is so helpful! You explain it so much better than the app itself. Cheers
Glad it was helpful!
How does it work using it to measure pistol bullet velocities?
Works perfectly. I just set it on a full-size tripod and position under the pistol. set the chronograph to pistol mode and away you go
Would you consider selling such costumised carry case??
Sorry, too labour intensive. Could not do it at a viable price
Are there any spring modifications necessary to aid in firing sub sonic ammo?
There are different springs out there, but I have never need them. This has worked for me every time
@pyrate_nz are you using the 60 grain bullets or a round with less powder?
CCI standard or subsonic. both 40gr. check out the full video for a complete explanation
7 or 8 mags worked fine for me like any mags you must keep them clean. Never use anything faster than CCI mini mag. in it,1235FPS, 1200FPS is best
My mags work fine with 10rds. I have had no issues with CCI standard and subsonic. you are spot on with the cleaning of the magazines
Just got the Cimarron which works fine. A dull black finish and barrel is more like 19.5”. $600 US. Sure is cool looking
Awesome,, thanks a buunch
No worries!
How's the feel and recoil when shooting? I like the look but I buy for function.
very nice to shoot, the limbsaver is definetly worth the extra $
I really enjoy my lever gun 12 guage from turkey
