    Tikka T3 Thread

    That is the best looking AICS compatible bottom metal I've seen for the T3. The most common ones don't follow the contour of the trigger at all and to me, it looks tacky. Which bottom metal is that?

    Magpul Bipod vs Harris Swivel/Notched 6-9"

    I really only need a slight push to go get the Harris. I was just really turned on by the Magpul bipod video, especially the soundtrack. Anyone else care to chime in before I call dibs on the last Harris in the LGS?

    Magpul Bipod vs Harris Swivel/Notched 6-9"

    Hello, So I'm putting together my first rifle with a target/tactical style scope and heavy barrel. It's a T3x CTR with a K624i on top. I'm not sure what bipod to get, and I'm also (unfortunately) not in the US. Where I live, the magpul and the Harris with the swivel function and the notched...

    How do you support it Awesome music, and that rifle looks like it's fixated to the ground. Very cool

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I don't know if they are imported into the US but there is already the Tikka T3x Varmint in .223 with the same barrel twist. The mags only hold six rounds, but unless it's a match gun - who cares? I have a CTR and I love it, but the regular bottom fittings and trigger guard look a lot better...

    I've heard .223 Tikka owners complain about the magazine restricting COAL ? Could this have been an issue with the 77 gr bullets?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I once grabbed the wrong box of ammo at the range and loaded up my M1a with 8 mm Mauser commercial FMJ... The shoulder of the case prevented it from chambering.

    I really would not worry one bit about shooting that rifle with .260 Remington ammunition.

    Rifle Scopes Which tactical scope models are currently made in the USA or Germany?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    But is the original stock really that bad? What features do you get if you upgrade to the Bravo? The original stock can be upgraded with adjustable cheek riser and it has a nice grip for your firing hand. Why go for Bravo chassi? What feature do you need? I'm getting a CTR in a couple of weeks...

    Action options for 300blk bolt gun?

    It might not be the best option for a custom build but the Sako 85 rifles in .223 have a nice small receiver and feeds from double stack, six shot magazines. I wouldn't buy one for the action alone, but if you like any of the stocks they come in then it might be an option if you want to have...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    My guess is that Tikka or their owners do not want to lower the price of TRG 22 mags, so they had to change the CTR magazines to something that did not fit the TRG. Just speculation, of course.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    The TRG 22 mags fit in the T3 CTR magazine well, but CTR mags do not fit in the TRG22. The TAC A1 has the CTR magwell. The Tikka Tac uses the standard Tikka T3 plastic single stack magazines. There are three and five round magazines.

    The I have felt this as well, when I have handled the Berserk stock. I've never shot one of the laminate GRS stocks, but they look very nice (but not very tacticool) and I'm sure they are very stiff and rigid.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    That rifle looks fantastic! Nice paint job! The friendly man on the range had a T3 Varmint. The combination of the smooth bolt and the GRS ergonomics really felt great. I could really see a CTR+GRS in my future... Hopefully later this year. Did you remove the Berserk? Why? What did you go to...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Do we have any owners of Tikka rifles in GRS stocks on the board? Say what you want but I really like the non-tacticool yet yeally classy and modernist look of the GRS stocks. I had the chance to try a very nice T3 + GRS Berserk combo at the range the other day. Boy, what a shooter! I still...

    Scotts556, I really wish that was a picture of the back seat of MY car ;). Is that the same stock in all three pictures and you painted it? Looks great! Is the barrel the original T3 barrel, but with a .243 AI reamer job? I've got all of my incoming money until roughly July already dedicated to...
