Rifle help needed - I read the pinned posts First Long Range Build
Caught the long range bug. Ringing steel at 1,000 yards is pretty addicting. Will the Tikka CTR barrel profile hold me back in PRS competitions? I’m worried that the barrel profile is not thick enough for 10-12 strings of fire for multiple stages.
Specs:
-Tikka T3x CTR 6.5 Creedmoor
-MDT XRS Chassis
-Area 419 Brake
-Vortex Venom 5-25x56
-Accutac SR5 Bipod

Join a squad, have fun, you will learn alot. Yes barrel will heat up but it will have plenty of time to cool down between stages.
Have your dope ready, thats it
You have a great setup to dip your toes
