    Tikka shooters- Mount the scope to the factory dovetail, or add a picatinny rail?

    Some people that were complaining about the UM slippage on the rail didn’t install the recoil pins. Others installed only one pin. Proper installation is also a thing.

    Get your Wheaties and lock it down on that Win Mag. 😃

    Tikka shooters- Mount the scope to the factory dovetail, or add a picatinny rail?

    The Tikka trigger that tends to slam fire or fire when taken off safety is sometimes caused by a loose trigger mounting screw. Lock it down. For UM rings, I always use both recoil pins and torque the clamp screws to 55in/lbs. On NF scopes I go 30in/lbs on the cap screws. No issues.

    I use both a Leupold rail and the Unknown Munitions direct mount. I much prefer the Unknown Munitions. However, the rail is a lot more forgiving with scope positioning, if needed. Mine are hunting rifles. Factory stock? I have the UM on a 7mm REM Mag, no issues, 28oz? scope.

    The Athlon works great. Only difference here is there is no off season. 😬

    Mcarbo trigger spring

    Works great, put it on a Model 70 in .280 Remington and hunted with it for a few years. No issues.

    Rifle Identification?

    Not planning on shooting it. I think it’s just a cool piece of history to look at and talk about. I found some more period correct rear sights so that’s about all I’m gonna do to it. The front looks to be original? Action and trigger still feel great. Two of my friends already wanted to buy it...

    Round In The Chamber

    Yes you can but some of the more “modern” versions I guess you could call them don’t come with a forward assist.

    Round In The Chamber

    You can have a full mag in with the BCG and dust cover closed. You can also pull and release the charging handle and get one in the chamber, no bolt release required. All your deer, even the deaf ones will running away though.

    Round In The Chamber

    I always hit the bolt release on an AR and let it slam to get one in the pipe. Trying to hold the BCG back is not a good practice IMO because it’s designed to slam closed and I have encountered the bolt not going fully into battery by babying it. While you’re at it, give the mags a little bump...

    Rifle Identification?

    Thanks again everyone for the assistance. With the info it was easier to nail it down. After a bit of more detailed searching, I found a letter from Marlin regarding a rifle with a serial number just a little higher than this one. Marlin stated that their records indicate that other rifle was...
