Tikka t3 Acton weight

Post by Brad Y »

Wondering if anyone has weighed a tikka t3 action with trigger and bolt? Minus a barrel?

Awesome thanks mate. I have a barrelled action but no action wrench suitable to remove the barrel to check.

Just one would suffice, put the action in the vice nice and tightly, then use the stilson on the barrel, extra leverage needed, just slip on the desired length of pipe to fit over the handle. :wink: :wink:

Now that’s just scary. Got the mental image of a plumber using two stilsons. I didn’t think plumbers were all that capable of using one proficiently :mrgreen:

Any plumbers in here?
