tibio Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I heard these are accurate rifles. Anyone out there hunt deer with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDRBS Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Very accurate out the box and has a great adjustable trigger. Smooth bold too. I have a .243 that is very accurate. only wish they would import the LH 7-08 I would say it is a good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACHINIST Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I had one in 280 and loved it,loved the caliber but hated to try and find ammo so it went down the road.I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.Accurate as all get out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikka T3 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I have one in 7-08 and its my go to rifle. The Remingtons and Rugers now set in the safe. I had the barrel cut to 18 in. and it still shoots great. Never had second thoughts about buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 A few years ago I decided I wanted a 9.3 x 62... I tried to order one in a Tikka because I had good reports on the quality/accuracy and they make rifles in that chambering. I was told that they would only import rifles in that caliber to the states in lots of FIVE... Shucks... I couldn't find 5 people who had ever even HEARD of a 9.3x62, much less 5 guys who wanted to buy one. I ended up buying one in a CZ 550...Good price, fine quality and scary accurate.

Lawdwaz Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I have a .223 that I bought second hand for my son a number of years ago. It has without a doubt one of the best triggers I've ever yanked. It shoots great and has a smooth action albeit long! They are a great value IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 have the T3 lite in 30.06, great accuracy and you will love the trigger and the bolt . put a limbsaver on because the stock pad is awful and you are in business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaeger Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Our group has 5 Tikka T3's. On fellow shoots a synthetic stainless in .270 and loves it. My hunting partner has a wood stocked T3 in .260 rem. and it is a tack driver (he would hunt with it but likes his sako .308 better). He also just got a heavy barrel stainless T3 in .204 to play with, love reloading. I have a T3 stainless lite in .204 for the same reason. My favorite Tikka is my T3 compact lite in .308 win. Its a blued gun with a 12 1/2" length of pull and a spacer to bring it out to 13 1/2". It is a tack driver with 168 Amax's and my hunting bullet a 165 grain Woodleigh. The shorter LOP helps my because of my size but I only used it in the late season where it really helps when wearing a lot of heavy clothes, helps get the full field of view through the scope in the late seasons. May try carrying it during begining of the northern zone rifle season. It weight 6 7/8 lbs. with a 2-7 redfield and mounts and will be a joy up and down in the Adirondack's.

wmig2 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I have a T3 in .308. Its an amazing gun for accuracy right out of the box. As said in other posts the trigger and bolt are good with no adjustment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckmaster7600 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I have a few and love them. I think they are the best "bang for your buck" in their price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
