    ADAMS CUSTOM RIFLES/TIKKA/6.5CM

    Big shout out for Dennis @ http://www.adamscustomrifles.com/ He just delivered, that's right, delivered the Tikka 6.5 Creedmoor today. I wanted to standardize some things and elected to rebarrel the CTR from .260 to 6.5CM. I do reload but wanted that factory option also. All I can say is be confident with his work, patience and communication. We spoke on the phone to hammer out exactly what I wanted in the build and he kept communication updates throughout the entire time. I would say he went above and beyond in that realm.

    I took this as a great opportunity to install the Tikka Performance 20moa rail since he removed the stock 0moa one and the the whatever bonding agent they put on these things. The fluting is awesome, flat medium twist-even check out the red safety indicator dot!

    Once again, thanks Dennis!

    Hope to get to the range Sunday, if not one day next week, towards the end and start collecting data. Going with factory AMAX first to make brass!

    Tikka CTR

    XLR Element/Taclite with Weibad cover-only one in existence right now

    Bartlein SS 1/8.5 rem varmint @ 22" threaded with specs for TB suppressor down the road.

    Custom muzzle cap, knurling at my request

    Desert Verde on action/black on bolt (do plan to do the chassis- probably Magpul FDE)

    Yes, he's set up to do them and has a great price on it. He also did the Cerakote. Yes, I'm really pleased with the work and how it all turned out.

    That is a great looking rig. Pardon my ignorance but what is the Weibad cover? I have a couple friends rocking the element and I'm not seeing what is different on yours. Thanks.

    They make cheekpiece covers and had not made one to date for the XLR cheekpiece. I asked them to make one and they spun this up, should be offering them on the site-may have to call. Different as they had to sew the three securing straps lengthwise.

    Please disregard my question in the bolt action picture thread. This is effing awesome as I'm a huge fan of Wiebad cheek pads.

    Love the build, Mr. Adams does great work. I can't wait to see some groups out of it.
