This is my .300 BLK night gun. I put it together about 10 years ago. Spikes lower, CMMG barrel, CMC trigger, Streamlight IR, ATN 5-20 digital night vision and battery pack. I can hunt about 300 yds in any direction right off my deck. And they just keep coming.

My all time favorite would definitely be my 6-284 and second would be my shorty 22-250. And definitely my all time favorite little hunting buddy.

I've been wanting a sporter weight .223 for a while. At the beginning of the month I picked up a Tikka T3x Superlite. I cannot begin to tell you what a joy this rifle is to me. I know I'm probably preaching to the choir, telling everyone what they already know. I mounted a Leupold 6.5-20 and began to work up loads. The guarantee is 1" three shot groups at 100 yds. Every load I gave this rifle shot smaller than 1" with 1/2"-3/4" the norm. Since I live in California, I can only hunt with non-lead bullets. I ended up with Barnes Varmint Grenade. Since the rifle is an 8" twist, I settled on the 50 gr. over 24 grains of N133. Velocity is 3300-3400 fps.
I went out yesterday to shoot ground squirrels. All shots were over 100 yds. with 200 yds. the farthest. I was shooting off of Primos trigger sticks. Very accurate.

Notice the furrow the bullet left in the last pick. This bullet went through this squirrel exited and still left that furrow. All in all the rifle performed better than I expected. The only change I would make would to be able to adjust the sear engagement. Did I mention that the rifle, all in, weighs 7lbs. 4oz.
What a great rifle!
