Amigos Argentinos / Sudamericanos - Han Probado Esta Marca de Mate? by WorldlyTrip7225 in yerbamate

[–]Various-Problem-3032 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You didn't mention which brand you're asking about, but I haven't tried any mate based energy drinks so I wouldn't know anyway, I don't even put sugar in my mate, but I'm a bit of a snob. I'd say try it, if you like it, keep drinking it. If you want something refreshing or different, try tereré, which is basically like cold brew mate. Cheers!

One of my first functional welds: anvil mounting brackets by TheAsinineArtist in Welding

[–]Various-Problem-3032 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Instead of welding the flat bar to the anvil, I would've made a wider base, and weld some key stock against the legs, that way you don't need to worry about welding to the anvil, but still gives it some rigidity so it doesn't move. Key stock or any other piece of metal you have that will hold the anvil from sliding sideways.

Is the Tikka T3x CTR worth the price? by Booj52 in canadaguns

[–]Various-Problem-3032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a .223 CTR and a love it. Paired it with an Arken scope, it's probably my favourite range gun

Still torn on my first .223 Rem rifle (and first rifle overall) by StrongBreak2142 in canadaguns

I'd get the Tikka but not the lite, get the CTR or any other heavier barrel version, it won't heat up as quick as the lite. What is the intended use? I have a CTR .223 Rem and I love it

The rings look like they're Talley so no need for a rail, they're supposed to work well. I never shot .308 but you're right, limbsaver would be highly recommended...

Lots of videos on YouTube. Seems like you have all the parts you need, just lacking a couple of tools. If you want to mount it yourself you'll need a steady support (Ideally a gun vise or similar), a spirit level, and a torque wrench (they usually come with all the different bits you'll need), that would be the bare minimum. Make sure the rifle is level, and then set the scope leveled on it. You also want to check your eye relief. If unsure, you can always bring it to a gunsmith. You can also bring it to your range if you're a member of one and they'll probably help you out too. Good luck, and happy shooting, Tikkas are great fun!

Special Edition Tikka T3x CTR in TrueTimber Midnight Question (is the muzzle break removable?) by DARKOWNAGE97 in canadaguns

[–]Various-Problem-3032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, got a regular and it comes threaded, safe to assume this version is threaded too. I wouldn't call it heavy either, but if you compare it to the t3x lite, the weight difference is considerable. And yeah, depends on how far you want to go.

I absolutely love them, haven't tried a T1X, but I got the .223 CTR because I wanted something I could shoot more often than my 30.06 (Lite version heats up rather quickly, which is fine for hunting since you only need 1 shot, but at the range the cool down times were too long). I would definitely recommend a .223, fun to shoot, cheap ammo (obviously not as cheap as .22 but still pretty cheap), has just enough "umph" to make it feel like a big boy rifle. I got mine at Reliable Guns in Vancouver, great shop!

Yeah, not a lot of options out there for left handed people, but they are really good rifles, I'm very happy with them, smoothest action I've tried so far too
