My New Rifle Tikka T3

[PKRobbins]

Finally got all the pieces put together and went to the range before work this morning to try it out.

Tikka T3 Scout .308win
Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 FFP EBR1-MRAD Reticle
20 MOA Ken Farrell mount bought here from Adam B
Warne Tactical rings
Jard trigger bought here from CZ550
SJC Titan Comp
Harris Bipod
Paint job by yours truly

Shot several kinds of ammo though it in 5 shot groups, it liked 168gr pills best. 100 yards is as far as I can shoot here. Would be some really nice shooting if I could ever put the fundamentals together for 5 in a row.

sorry can't get this pic rotated

Suprised me that Fed GMM 175 didn't do very well, maybe it was me as I shot them last. Lake City XM80C was even worse but I'll have some brass when I get them all shot up.
Should have my Manners T4 in mid December, I'm thinking about bedding this one in the meantime. It would be my first attempt.

That's one nice gun, paint job looks really good too. I was thinking about buying a tikka once funds allow me. How do you like the Jard trigger? Is it much of an improvement to the stock trigger?

I never shot the factory trigger in this rifle. But I know it is much better than the trigger in my other T3 which is still factory.
