Trickin' out a Tikka is like Trickin' out a Toyota Yaris. Yeah it makes way more sense to pimp a model 700  . That T3 Lite is awesome Mistem. A rifle like that make it hard for you to live up to your name in the field?

Not for me guys, calm down!! A LH buddy has a one and it is a real shooter. Consistent 1/2 moa. Wanted to find out what he could do to make it a semi custom. Doesn't have the money for a full custom so I told him I would post for some pics.

I've got a Tikka T3 Lite 300 WSM my dad bought me a couple of years ago that I'd like to have some work done on. I was thinking a new stock (B&C), flute the bolt and a new bolt shroud.
You ain't about that life.

Companies are taking note about the popularity of Tikkas. Lots of aftermarket goodies like bolts, mag systems and stocks on the market now. Mine in a B&C stock. Currently have a McMillan Edge on order, and swapped out the Aimpoint rings for some TPS. I like this stock, but I am just trying to get it lighter. ![[Linked Image]](http://i39.tinypic.com/o0e9h1.jpg)

Any extended ones? Roy

My buddy has the 300 short mag and wants to seat the bullets out deeper and can't find a way to do it.

He could get a factory long action mag, and remove the short bolt stop and swap it with a long bolt stop.

What is the point? Are not Tikkas already ugly, are light, and usually shoot rather well?
Perhaps they could use a paint job. The polymers used in the magazines seem to be really tough. Jack
