Feets / Collection / My build 14 months with RPAL. You only get one foot today.

Kinda new to posting here. Got the restricted Carmel coming in next month and the Makasi hopefully arrives in August. I know I'll need a bolt action eventually. Thinking Tikka in 308.

More money than brains maybe. You don't have to register the NR version and you can buy the shorter barrel for it later...and register it as restricted when you do of course. But you get the point.

Can't go wrong with a tikka in .308. I know a guy who has the ctr, he really likes it.

Tikka t3x in .308 is fantastic and it’s just under $1500 at cabelas

Why would you buy a restricted version of something that is definitely not long for this world when the next wave comes?

I'm a total noob. I thought I posted a picture but it doesn't seem to show up in the original post.Β 

Yes I'm thinking the t3x CTR is in my future. As for why I chose the restricted Carmel. I already have a restricted Benelli M4 entry clone so I will deal with the government later and enjoy my toys now while I can. Plus the barrel looks ridiculous on the NR
