  1. i to have the andre g fox call and after alot of playing around with it got the hang of it. had mine about 6 years now and can use it hands free, and found it to be an a good caller on really windy nights when say your hand or a WAM caller is drowned by the wind noise etc, persevere JOHN and take it with you and give it a go,you hav,nt nothing to lose. regards and good hunting NUTSHOT..
  2. hi all i have a tikka t3 stainless varmint in 22-250 fitted with a t8 mod and its a good bit of kit. but i must admit when i first got it i had problems with 55 grain bullets and could only get 4 inch groups,but when i switched to lighter 50 grain bullets i was getting 1/2 to 3/4 inch groups with factory ammo at 100 yards that was due to the twist in the barrel not stabalizing the heavier bullets. ive had this rifle for about 2 years now and its bin a 100% reliable.also just had the barrel shortened to make it a bit handier in the truck and havnt noticed any difference in accuracy, but its ma

  7. good going FOXSHOT sounds like you earned them charlies , but hay thats fox shooting ,you only get out what you put in nice to see that ackley nailing them regards NUTSHOT
  8. hello ryesway, i shoot the same combo as you are but i have a reflex t8 mod instead, i zero mine an inch high at a 100 yards and dont need to worry about holding over anything out to about 250 yards. grouping wise i get 3/4 groups at a 100 yards and 2 and a 1/2 inch groups at 250 yards .not the best groups i know but i,m just an average shot who knows his limit and am confident of clean kills at these ranges on charlie . these guns are capable of pinpoint accuracy ,but at the end of the day they are only as good as the person is who is using them all the best , hope this helps regards NUTSH
  9. nice set up foxshot,and sweet grouping.i can see you having some good times ahead of you all the best NUTSHOT
  10. WELL DONE mate nice pics and ace shooting once again
  11. THANKS baldie . that looks a neat little moderator, looks like it mite be stainless to. mite have to get a closer look at one of those.by the way told you wrong about the barrel length of the t3 its 23 and 3/8 inches long not 22 inches.it also has a 1in 14 twist which is a shame because it wont entertain any bullet over 50 gr's . mind you owd charlie dont complain much.
  12. nice shooting there foxhunter , and as all ways a interesting read. this is the stuff that makes this site.
  13. thanks for the replys all .BALDIE is there any smaller mods on the market that would help to improve the situation ; balance,length and overall handling. i dont really want to go back to using the gun without the mod for foxing ,because of livestock and houses near my permission and un sociable hours etc .
  14. HI ALL THINKING ABOUT SHORTNING THE BARREL ON MY T3 , AS THE T8 DOES AGOOD JOB SOUND WISE BUT EFFECTS THE GUNS HANDLING AND MAKES IT TO LONG FOR MY LIKING. LIVED WITH THIS FOR A YEAR NOW,BUT THINK TIME HAS COME FOR THE CHOP.WOULD LIKE TO GO DOWN 3 1/2 INCHES FROM 22 TO 18 1/2 . ADVICE AND EXPERIENCES MUCH APPRECIATED.
  15. my tikka likes the norma 50 grain v max the best but also shoots the winchester 50 grain ballistic silver tip good too . but shot crap groups with the heavier 55 grain federal ammo. best of luck buddy . hope this helps you , have fun ,you wont regret buying the tikka there great guns
  16. i'm a self employed wood butcher [carpenter 16 years] keeps me in ammo
  17. hi men thinking of trying some norma 50 grain 22-250 ballistic tip ammo with the v max head in my tikka,just wanted to know if any one else is using this round and how there getting on with it ? THANKS NUTSHOT
  18. 'IRISHLURCHER you should definately have the 't8 on when zeoring in as fitting any moderator will change the point of impact.if the mod has been fitted correctly you should find it easier to group with your gun [reduced muzzle flip etc] if in doubt have a good gunsmith check things over for you ; threading on barrel ; crown etc also try checking the barrel is still floating as a mod can sometime cause the barrl to touch the stock ; hope this helps you. ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''goodluck let us know how you get on
  19. nice one foxshot , rekon you well and truly earned that buck
  20. good job done FOXSHOT , where did you get that comb raiser for your rifle from , i need one for my 22-250 and arnt having much luck finding one .cheers
  21. wots wrong with the t8 then lord missalot, it certainly does a very good job of quietning the 22-250 down its the hazyness in the scope thats bothering me, just wondering how the other chaps with t8's on their rifles get on , and if there are any solutions.suggestions please chaps.
