I took this in on trade from a friend, I have never owned a Tikka or persenaly cared for them. Just me? I originally planned to have it rebarreled to 6x45 but I have other customs in the works this would help fund.

This is a stainless Tikka T3 .223 Rem 8 twist. My friend used this for a truck rifle, calling rifle for coyote hunting. Hence the Krylon camo job but left the stainless and scope blueing the way they are??? Maybe he was bored?

He cut the barrel to 16", I guess he used a crowning tool. Never the matter it shoots. I took it out for two range sessions and it shot well with his recommended load the scope is a Leupold VX-1 gloss 3-9x40. He sent it to Leupold to have the reticle with the custom dots installed calibrated to his load which is a 69gr Nosler Custom Competition bullet on top of 23.5gr of H335. The center cross hair is for 100, the first dot down 200, the second dot down 300 and where the duplex gets wider 400. I do not know the round count but the barrel looks great. I personally fired 60 rounds or so through it.

Included is four unopened boxes(100pcs each)of Nosler "Seconds" 69gr Nosler CC.

I would like to sell as a package. The rifle, scope, rings and bullets

The sling and bipod are NOT included.

*** SOLD ***$560.00 Shipped to your FFL, must accept from a non FFL or there will be a additional FFL
Fee to ship from a FFL on my end.

Payment by discreet PP plus fee or Postal Money Order.

Once I had it zeroed for me at 100 yards this is how it shot at 200 and 300 yards using the appropriate hold over dots.

The scope has a small "ding/chip" as shown in the photo bellow.

All the best things in life, live on the other side off fear.

The true eye sees not the despair of its victims, only the elegance of equilibrium. It's a demonstration of superior judgment.
