    Tikka T3 Thread

    Five years ago I came to the Hide looking for suggestions on my first rifle and after some good suggestions, I settled on a Tikka T3 Tactical 20" in .308. That rifle has been a gem and has served me very well. This year I decided I wanted a 6.5 CM because I joined a range that has 1000 yard...

    predatobr 7.62

    I had ordered an 18" PredatAR but decided with all the gun control stuff going on that if I wanted one I'd better go ahead and get one. Someone posted on the forum they were shipping the 16" predatobr so I went ahead and ordered it. I saw threads where so many people cancelled their orders...

    predatobr 7.62

    I was wondering did anyone leave theirs on order and if you are getting them now? I saw a lot about backorder threads online earlier and order cancellations. I ordered one Sunday night and picked it up last night. I was wondering if anyone else had received one and fired it yet. I can't get...

    Thanks Chuck I live 45 minutes from Durham, that is definitely going on my calendar! I bet I could get my instructor to go to that too if he's still home.

    Suppressors Help out the clueless here

    Thanks I will start with those brands and do some research. I really can only afford to buy one, so I need one that can do double duty for me.

    Suppressors Help out the clueless here

    I want to go ahead and start the process on getting a suppressor. Here's the wishlist and keep in mind I know nothing about Suppressors. I want to use on Tikka T3 .308 20" and also want to be able to use on 5.56 16" with an adaptor. The 5.56 has a muzzle brake on it, the .308 doesn't...

    Today's first session with my new Tikka T3

    Ok so thanks to all of you that helped me decide which rifle to buy. I fired my Tikka T3 TAC today for the first time. It was also my first time shooting .308 caliber. The noise and recoil were not as bad as I was expected, I shot from a table holding the rifle since I don't have a bipod...

    Suppressors question regarding relocation and application for trust/stamps

    I'm interested in an answer to the moving question too. I'm currently in NC and moving to MS when my farm sells, but it could take years to sell or sell next week. I was told that if I start the process here it's not transferable to another state, any ideas?
