@@Leopard_8119 I go over the screws a couple of times, then let it all sit and settle for 15-20 minutes. Then I do them all again. Never had anything come loose.
I'm new to hunting rifles. Got a Tikka T3x with no mount and I've been having a hard time learning how to navigate mounting solutions. It seems like picatinny rails are the way to go, but I wouldn't even know where to buy them. Most pic rails I find are for mlok/key mod. My Tikka is 308 short action. Where could I find pic rails for my rifle? And how do I know if they're canted or not? Thanks in advance
Pic Rails that mount onto the receiver are readily available, and the Tikka T3X is a fairly common firearm, so you won’t have any trouble getting one. As far as cant goes, it will be displayed on the packaging, and, being a hunting rifle, I would imagine you would require either a 0-MOA or a 20-MOA rail. I mainly stick to the 0-MOA rails, as I’m generally not trying to hit things in the next suburb. Most gun shops will have them (or can get them), and you can also get them through most of the online retailers. Just stick to the known brands and you’ll be fine. If you’ve got any doubt, just take your firearm into the shop so they can match the appropriate rail to your gun. Hope this helps. Cheers.
The title should have read "How To Install A Picatinny Rail Onto a Rifle That already Has Holes Drilled and Tapped To Accept A Rail". If someone couldn't figure out how to mount a rail when all they had to do was secure the bolts then they've no business owning a gun in the first place. An entire video devoted to following simple instructions anyway. Useless.
Real world step by step, nice job 🙂Keep up the good work 👍

He used loctite, they ain't going anywhere on there own
Thanks for the video. Just wondering where you got the torque driver from?
Most gun shops sell them. The new ones are digital, but I prefer the older style. You may still even be able to but then online.
Thanks Mate.

@@2clicksup910 Thank you man. I really appreciate it
is 0 MOA picatinny rail good for 500 yards?
I’d say if you were regularly shooting at that distance, you’d more than likely go with 20 MOA.
Yes anything above 500 yds go with 20 MOA.v
