Gee, if this is what I get for being late to the party, I'm going to do that more often.
Can't fault anybody's sense of humor around here, that's for sure.
Accurate and pretty Tikkas are. But reliable under rough conditions, no way.
The other thing about customs is that I get just what I want in weight, balance and fit. Something no factory rifle can offer. E

Carry on with the bitcches.
My Tikka has been 100% reliable for 12 years now and it gets hunted in an assortment of driving snow, sleet, freezing rain and sub zero temps every season. It's a model 595 rather than a T-3 but I don't think they're that much different in basic design.

Let's hear your first-hand account of a Tikka failing in "rough conditions".

Tikka bashers are just pissy cause they spend more money and usually end up with an inferior rifle.
Same with Savage haters..
Who gives a crap if they shoot and the owners are happy.

Not to say that Tikkas won't get the job done, as long as you're willing to slum one.

I too prefer the sporter weight ladies over the trendy ultra-lights..... though, admittedly..... I've fooled around with more than a few built for long range/varmints in my day.....

Problem with the LR/V ladies..... is they're opposite from rifles..... the heavier they are..... the more recoil there is in the morning!
