Another tikka
My options leave as 222 make a 20/222
or 223 and use the quality cheep ammo available for 223.
Roger has a 20/222 reamer thats done 1 barrel and I know he is keen to do me one.
As long as I dont shoot the donor it will be a 20/222

Re: Another tikka
I like them. good pick up. Good to see some sense in the next chambering choice, 20-222 is so much more classy than another boring old 20 Vt.

Re: Another tikka
Thats a good find too. The stocks seem to vary a lot. Mine looks like an LSA stock on a M model.
Go on shoot the donor, I dare you

Re: Another tikka
Rifle only cost me $450 so it be cheap to turn into a 20/222 and if its all hype I can run proven performer 204R reamer in and sell it.

Re: Another tikka
Why not something from left field like a 22/204.
You have plenty of brass and all you need is a bushing or failing that a Redding Bushing die and bushing.
40`s at over 4000fps or 50`s at 3700fps

Re: Another tikka
If I was doing a 20 on a 222 bolt face I would go a 20 Tac, I'd even lend you the forming dies.
Just saying.
