SCSA TSP-H Tikka T3 short action
A quick look at the southern cross small arms TSP-H chassis for the tikka T3/T3x small action. I found an issue that the chassis at least with 204 / 223 does not work with MDT polymer magazines. It may however work with others.

Mine doesn't align like that at all?
The tiny screw on top of the muzzelbreak is for installing a mirage band
Hey, how do you get the lrf box in the display closer to the reticle?
Have you zeroed your scope. The lrf box is fixed and can’t be moved. It only moves depending on how you zero your rifle as far as I know. What do you have it mounted on?
@@foxbyfoot Yes, I zeroed in the Alpex at 100m and the lrf box is still in the upper third of the display. Won't change without working on assembly. Can I live with that, I still thought I noticed that I can see the lrf box at 3.5 inches. And from zoom 7 the box disappears. That's not the case in the CZcams videos, is it for you
@@gregorziegler1015 I’m guessing as you zoom the box is out of the field of view.
Only way you could change this is to change the rail on your rifle say, from a 0moa to 20moa or example or vise versa, or buy adjustable mounts. My reticle was too high when I had a 20moa rail on 243 , changed for 0moa and it came central. The lrf box is below the reticle which is quite central now. I still tend to range check at 3.5 or 7 mag as time I get to 14 it's right at the bottom of the screen and out of view time I get to 28. Think they all vary a bit, guess they fix the laser then put the box in the corresponding place on the screen.
Yeah, I have not had an issue on my tikka but seems gregorziegler1015 has.
🤔🤔🤔🤔
I have a TAC A1 and mine stops upside down (with the small screw facing downwards). I don't mind cause it still looks awesome, and the sides are oriented sideways. But I'm starting to wonder if that was on purpose.
Same on my, do you find a way to fix it ? I just screw it approximately until I think its aligned on the barrel but don’t think it’s the right way to install it…
Hello, I would like to know the distance from the end of the barrel to the first hole of the compensator.Thank you.
It's going so fast.
17hmr is pretty quick for a rimfire
Question - can you bypass the ridge Ryder solar controller that comes with the blanket, and plug directly onto a solar controller?
Hey There, The solar controller is not built into the blanket at all so you can use whatever solar controller you like.
3:48... Screw is used to attach a mirage strap.
You are absolutely correct!
Got one of these sola blankets, for the price there well made. cant fault mine and does an awesome job at keeping the battery charged on a cloudy day even.
Yep a have been super happy with mine so far
Great video mate. Wondering if you’d had any trouble since purchase? Would you recommend this product?
Hey Chris, I have used it a few times on a couple of trips and has been awesome so far. Mainly using it to top up a dual battery system in my 4wd for our fridge. So far so good!
I have the same break for my Tac A1, and actually just ordered a CTR, and im not a big fan of the break - Also due to the way its installed, alsp afraid it would scratch my barrel
There are certainly much better brakes out there, especially those that are the correct caliber.
What brand and model number is your picatinny rail? Looking for something similar.
Hey there, this rail actually comes with the tikka CTR so not too sure on brand and if you can buy it after market. I would usually go with a nightforce rail if buying new.
I have T3x with factory wood stock chambered in 300 wsm
thank you
My muzzle breake does not aligned.... what can i do.
Hi David, I would speak with your local gunsmith for best advice mate. You can shim it, however best to get professional advise.
My very first bow was the 3G Stinger back in 2010 I think now have the newer EVO PSE and love it
I shoot mainly rifle but use the bow for a bit of fun!
@@foxbyfoot I try to stick with the bow if possible if not the boom stick comes out lol
Eye relief?
Yep, always a good idea to work out eye relief before leveling the scope. The scope can then simply be leveled by rotating it without effecting eye relief.
Thanks. Another great video. Ironically, it’s the exact scope I’m looking at. Although I’m thinking the 3-15 power, in case I want to use it for hunting too - although that’s not likely. I’m novice in this sport so my purchases are mostly guesswork. What are your throughs on the power? Which way should I go?
For range work I would go with the 25. If you are thinking of hunting the 3-15 would be a good compromise as the 25 is pretty bulky. 3-15 should be a good fit if you are simply shooting steel at the range.
@@foxbyfoot thanks Pal.
Nice set up. What scope?
Thanks Alex. The scope is a vortex viper PST gen2 5-25 x 50 with the EBR 7c reticle. It is an awesome scope and highly recommend it. I did an unboxing when I purchased it below czcams.com/video/DSJ-PAbprE4/video.html
make sure not to get the cm an mm confused lol might not fit in your chamber
Cm sound bigger :)
@@foxbyfoot it is a lot bigger literally 10 times bigger
I will call that a hell round
Those better be for the gunsword
Yeah because you need this for self defense
No for FUN
LMAO WHO USING THOSE BULLETS FOR SELF DEFENSE
Glad we got the professional on the needs for self defense here now 😂 That’s not what the right to bare arms is about anyway, so you’re missing on all counts
Haha, yeah nah. These are for range work :)
@@a10w55 idk
G*ns 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
Quiet kid do be getting ready if someone messes with him
FREEDOM SEEDS
Lol
I have a 6.5mm Swedish mauser
Nice what loads do you shoot?
Is this muzzle brake affect your rifle's accuracy?
I have only used it a couple of times, however when doing load development I was able to shoot a 3 shot group at 100 metres with all bullet holes touching. The point of impact was slightly off, however accuracy was still as good.
la vis dessus je pense que c est pas a serrer c est pour la bande anti reflet!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thx for the vid. The break didn't index evenly on my new CTR...stops threading at a wonky angle. Do I just back it off until even and then tighten with the screw d'ythink?
Yeah not too sure mate. Ask where you purchased it from. Or contact Beretta.
I am setting mine up right now and have the same issue .... Great video thought foxbyfoot Confined a few thing for me
This might help guys www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/sako-muzzle-brake-question.6986594/
My muzzle brake stops at 1 o'clock before the correct index, I have to rotate almost 1 turn (about 11/12) in order to align it properly. So hopefully this won't affect anything...
You could get it shimmed or hopefully the locking clamp will hold it correctly.
does it work?
Certainly reduces recoil.
That does help, thank you. Cabelas also advised turning the break off its uneven tightening and level it, then tighten the clamp screw.
Burris XTR sucked... warranty was a joke... sent it back to Optics Planet...
Not a great thing to have happened. What went wrong with your scope? What are you planning on getting as a replacement
@@foxbyfoot sent it to Burris because the illuminated light did not come on until the 7th position - Burris said it was within specs... took it out to the field and the side focus locked up... will try a Vortex next
@@foxbyfoot Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50mm Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, First Focal Plane
Disappointing. Most manufacturers have issues with scopes but it is how they resolve it that counts. I have been super happy with the vortex, it’s a quality scope and hope yours works out too. Good luck!
Is for the mirage band, over the barrer😊
100% thanks for that! You just reminded me, I did read that some time ago but completely forgot about it!

looks like a good setup ... keen to know how you are going with the solar blanket.. has there been any loss of power input over time and use.
Hey Ally, I have only used it a few times over summer but have had no issues at all.
Where was the knife in the box
Yep sure was. It’s not bad for a freebie
@@foxbyfoot my birthday was today and I got the same rest but didn’t come with the knife
Really, it was in the bottom of the box. In a cardboard section
@@foxbyfoot ya I didn’t see it
Bummer, maybe they stopped doing it. Just a tip also, you may find lining up the timing marks results in the rest not dropping and you get some strikes with your fletching. I found on CZcams to adjust it past the timing marks which fixed the issue for me.
Nice job mate :)
Thanks!
Were you looking at buying? Let me know what you end up getting if you are and what you think.
Nice. Yep hopefully they work out ok. Seems decent but yeah have only used it a couple of times. Good luck mate.
What rings you end up using?
Nightforce ultralite I believe they are.
czcams.com/video/GvSvMxu7Eyg/video.html same rings I used in this video
Very nice thanks. Where can we get the product?
Super cheap auto.
Poštovani koliko košta jedna ovakva tika karabin u evrima, unapred xvala 🔟
Hi there, not too sure sorry. Around 2200.00 Australian $
What picatinny rail system did you use (brand, model#, length)?
Hey there. The tikka CTR comes with a 0moa rail installed. So just the factory rail. On my savage I had a nightforce. What rifle are you looking to put a rail on?
@@foxbyfoot Bought a Tikka T3x Lite Black/Stainless but haven't received it yet. Looks like it has dove tail receiver with drilled mount holes on top for Optilok or Picatinny. Was thinking about the Picatinny with recoil lug, but I want it to fit the receiver top and not overhang the barrel like some do.
They usually come with rings. Area 419 make a decent rail for the t3x I believe. www.area419.com/product/tikka-standard-action-scope-rail/
What Calibre
@@foxbyfoot .308 win
Thanks it is the scope I picked for my Varmint
Yep Leupold make some great scopes! I have since changed to a Mil/Mil vortex viper gen2.
Great video. Thanks! What height rings did you use? What objective size lense? Do you think I could get by with low height (leupold prw2) rings? If not whats the lowest height I could use and maintain clearances (shell ejection and bolt functionality)? Thank you for your time.
Hey Bobby, I think the are medium nightforce rings and my current scope is 50mm and clears nicely. What scope are you looking to mount?
@@foxbyfoot I went with a Leupold vx freedom 4-12x 40mm and Leupold PRW-2 Low Height Rings. No issue with clearance . Thank you for responding.
Great choice. What rifle are you running this on?
Tikka 6.5CM T3X CTR (SS) w/20" barrel. I havent shot it yet but hope to this week. Debating on whether or not to get a muzzle brake. I think it would be more for looks vs recoil.lol This is my first 6.5cm so I'm still learning. Anxious to see what she'll do! Just got a 1943-ish Springfield Armory M1 Garand from the CMP that I'm equally excited about shooting. going to be a long day on the range!
Awesome!! I would go a brake if you are looking to shoot a decent range and want to spot your own shots. The recoil is mild on the 6.5 but enough to impact your sight picture. I don’t have a brake yet however have used a mates on his RPR and it sure makes a difference. Enjoy your first outing!
That’s a great multi use lid on the pot. Such a compact simple but effective system. Damned expensive though. Thanks.
Yep certainly not cheap but very light and compact for day pack use. I love mine and use it all the time. Also has been handy when we have lost power to head up some two minute noodles :)
They sure are expensive but come in so handy. We have used ours when we have had blackouts for simple stuff like a cup of coffee
Thanks for the video! I'm going to pick up a T3X CTR soon. First rifle, and this was really informative.
Glad you doing it useful Madison
Got mine off by heating the head of the screws with a powerful soldering iron. There are also dowels and its glued. Once you've got screws out, put one in the blind threaded hole and slowly screw it in to break the glue, then carefully lift it off with fine pinch bars or screw drivers. Take your time. It wasn't hard but go slow.
Thanks James for explaining the process you used, glad you were able to sort it out. They really don’t want that rail to come off do they!!
@@foxbyfoot Yes don't know why they need so much loctite but it certainly won't move unless you want it to. It is an awesome rail. Beautifully machined.
Sure is, would have been better if it was 20moa! Overall it is an awesome rifle and couldn’t be happier.
@@foxbyfoot Great rifles! Why spend 6K on a fancy tactical offering when even with a budget Vortex 6-24x50 will shoot .3-.5MOA out of the box all day long!!
Exactly!
