    Tikka T3 Thread

    SuperSneakySniper, I've had no issues running mine in dusty environments, including slung over my back on a motorcycle chasing pigs in dusty outback locations. Like most actions if they are over lubed they become dust magnets in this environment. I use a very minimal smear of grease on the...

    Tikka T1X

    Wouldn't it be nice if the designers made this the same action footprint as a T3 meaning same trigger and stock options with a specific dbm to position the rimfire mags. They'd take off like a wildfire!

    Tikka CTR Stock Upgrade - Thoughts?

    https://www.bellandcarlson.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=1129 Not as good as a Manners but a heap cheaper. I'm going to get one to try and just change back to the factory stock for hunting. I've stiffened the forend, added pillars and bedded my factory stock. It's...

    Rifle Scopes Meopta Meopro side by side Leupold VX-3i???

    I've just bought a Leupold VX5HD - 3-15x44 for my Tikka CTR. I have compared it side by side with my Minox ZP Tac set on 15x right into nightfall. The Leupold has pretty decent glass and well sorted illumination. I was originally looking at the VX6HD in 3-18x44 but it's quite a step up in...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 5-25 v Minox 5-25 v Nightforce 7-35 v Schmidt & Bender 5-25 v Vortex 4.5-27

    Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I've had the ZP Tac with MP4 reticle for just under 12 mths. I've previously owned a N'force 4-16 F1, Steiner TX5i 3-15 and have had access in the past to Vortex Gen 11 Razors. S&B PMII, Premier, March, Kahles etc but rarely at the same time...

    Tikka vs Custom Build

    I have three builds on Tikka T3 actions, 6mm Dasher, 7 Rem SAUM and 7-08 (in process). The actions haven't needed truing and both the SAUM and Dasher have no problem shooting .5" groups at 200m with quick load development and I'm no bench rest shooter. I've competed in long range tactical...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX5HD 3-15x44 vs 2017 Sig Whiskey5 3-15x44

    Looking at these two scopes for lighter weight all round rifle. The Sig website and 2017 catalogue does not give many specifics re the Whiskey5. The Sig with the triplex reticle and mil adjustments, 2017 model, black scope, 30mm tube. Anyone know how many mil per turn in the elevation...

    7 Saum freebore for short action

    I've got a 7mm SAUM built to run as a short action on a Tikka T3 Action. Uses Accurate mags without front plate. Running 180gr Berger Hybrids at 2900fps from a 27" barrel using retumbo. The rifle is a hammer and makes the run out to a mile look easy. COAL is 2.950" with the hybrid. Can't...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta vs Minox ZP5 5-25 review

    Down here in Aus the TT's are around $6000 AUD. My Minox ended up at $3200 landed here. Haven't had a chance to look through a TT but I much prefer the MR4 reticle than anything currently offered in Nightforce, TT, Vortex, S&B. Personally find the centre dot reticles fractionally faster and...

    Anyone running 6mm BR in a Tikka T3 action?

    I've got a 6mm Dasher on a Tikka. Negative on the PMAGS, they need to have the feed lips clearanced to fit into the bottom of the action inlet and even with that done would not feed BR case. AICS with Patriot or PVA BR mag kits both work. Nil issues with extraction. The 6mm BR will feed a...

    Tikka T3 action in a Manners 4a CTR stock

    The CTR action has an addional piece milled out under the action between front of the mag inlet and front action screw hole. 5 min job on a mill or if you are ok with a small hand file. It's too clear the top of the mag follower ramp on CTR/TRG mags. It has no effect on being able to swich...
