Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles How many Tikka T3s have the fire sold?

I'm guilty. Picked up T3 Lite in 270 back when the prices were still reasonable and liked it well enough to order a T3 Hunter in 260 with 8 twist barrel. Both are very accurate, but the 260 is just stupid accurate. Not my favorite guns, but nice to carry and hunt.

Three now…curse this damn place.

I've purchased 2 because of the write-ups here along with their connection to Sakos. 7mm/08 local and a .25/06 off this site. Ended up selling both only because I find the stocks uncomfortable to shoot. Oh, and the cost of spare mags didn't set right either.
I keep wanting to give them one more try tho, probably in a .260.

4 for me, which caused 7 more from family members.

Bought my first 595 Tikka in '98......7-08 SS/syn

Several other 595's & T3's since

'Convinced' some of my buddies they should try a T3 too..

Still a good 'outta the box gun'

My first 695 is from 2000 -300Win. The second one is from 2013, used 270 Win. The newest one is from last year T3 Lite SS 243Win. I am still waiting for Beretta to bring us a 7x64 stainless. After that I'll be done.

I did my part yesterday on the fire.

I am going to look at a t3 lite tomorrow. After reading about them on here, I have to give one a try. Thinking the .30-06 would be about perfect.

I bought a Tikka because of a local store rep. It was an excellent decision. Wood Hunter. I liked it so much I've bought two more. They are excellent, and all are shooters. But I'm considering buying one of the new Winchester XPR's. I will need to feel the balance, but I'm guessing it will be good.

Guilty as well.
Went with the 22-250 lite stainless, and bought a t-3 wood stock here off the fire classifieds.
Im happy.

A bad shoulder was forcing me to consider lighter options than my much loved FN customs with 26"Med-Wt.tubes and heavy wood stocks.
A good friend of mine lets me use a Tikka T3 lite in .30-06 and by the end of that range session I was hooked!!! Now I have 2 T3-Superlites a .30-06 and a .223Rem 8"twist with a .243 on the way,after that who knows...Tikka's new CTR in .308 or .260-
8"has lots of WOW factor,then buyin Scopes n Developing loads...ScottyO.

What model 243 Winchester you have coming?

T3 lite.stnls,syn

I just bought one too. T3 Lite SS, syn. 243

I think a limited edition 24hourcampfire T3 would be pretty cool

I usually feel pretty comfortable to recommend Tikka rifles to guys who are looking to buy something new. Around here the T3 lite goes for around $1300 and does make the decision slightly more difficult. It feels a little stupid paying that money for something that has quite a bit of plastic.

But it is still nice to know that you will get a good shooting rifle.

Anyone with multiples swapping Swirlys? Kinda thought a fella could go all out on a handle and swap it out to a plinker for summer fun.

T3 223.
