    Tikka T3 Thread

    I've seen T3 mags that were put together wrong. Can't remember what it was, maybe follower wrong way round. Anyway she ran perfect after fix. I would not start bending feed lips or adjusting. As JGR said check fit in the stock , quite a few T3's we get in are not in the stock properly. edi

    It does look a bit funny having the barrel larger than the action, or transition. Several barrel manufacturers seemed to have brought out barrels to match the original T3 diameter. Our rifle smiths just turn down the the blank to match original T3 diameter therefore all T3 stocks will fit in...

    With my 3-27×56 or 5-25×56 pmII scopes i use the lowest one piece spuhr or the lowest two piece spuhr mounts 4000. They have centre line 25.4mm or 1" above the rail. Works on our CTR perfect. edi

    A rifle of this type in this stock with Lite barrel 20" in 308 with 150gr bullet moves ~2mm back before the bullet is out of the barrel. In Theorie you could be right that the launch angle can change however I believe the rifles COG/Centre Mass is more important to reduce launch angle change...

    Thanks for your opinion, I take this type of critique seriously and look at these points in future designs. Shorter forend is to cater for 16" barrels with over barrel suppressors which is a common combination in Europe. Not many left here that shoot without suppressor. Our previous model had a...

    We have built many custom stocks for the T3 with Atlasworx long action mag system for the 3.715 300wm AI type magazines. It is tight and not easy to fit. Cut a small notch in the feed ramp and you can use full mag length. edi

    My T3 that was fitted with a Hawk Hill 1/8 6.5CM Barrel was just wasted on me, so I kept it stored for a few years until the time was ripe. A young local competition shooter who was already doing well with a 308 at PRS has a chance to go to the Precision Rifle World Championships in France this...

    T3 CTR was initially the name for a plastic stocked T3 with med weight barrel and the TRG type 10 shot steel magazine using a new floor plate that has a different footprint to say T3 Lite/Varmint etc. If you have a CTR rifle and are looking for a replacement stock one assumes you will use your...

Also met Europeans that we didn't meet for two years due to shows being cancelled in Europe. Yes quite a few companies did not show up that were on our list...

    Might have to hold back on flight bookings. Hope they have the decency to pull the plug in good time. Any news on the Safari Club convention which starts a day later than Shot? Was hoping to get to that for a day also. Generally in our parts of the world they relaxed a few things Covid...

    Shot Show 2022

    Recon one is set up differently at a trade show than at an end user show. I heard SIG Sauer pulled out of shot show, is that right? Any others pulled out? Anyway we are almost through with flights from Ireland/ covid test bookings and have confirmation that we can attend. Looking forward. edi

    I prefer slightly front heavy for off-hand shooting. Have a 12oz and a 7oz suppressor on 20" rifles. The one with the 7 oz is perfect. edi

    That is about right. We had a rifle stock stand at the IWA Germany for three years in a row. Had 4 staff on our stand and most of the time busy talking to... 90% private individuals. Often the real trade customers did not make it to the stand. We stopped exhibiting and now rather go directly to...

    Entry fee seems extremely high at around 750 US per visitor or? Would that be normal? More than the flight ticket from Europe and back. edi
