Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles Great Deal on a Tikka Varmint Rifle

That's what I said!

I played with that scope a lot, helping a friend develop loads for his 308. It's rugged, has nice, clear glass and, just as important, has repeatable adjustments. It didn't get muddy at 24x which surprised me. I told him that if I ever replaced the 6.5-20 on my HB 308, that would be my choice. We had to put a 20MOA base on his rifle because this scope does not have the adjustments to reach out beyond 600 yd without help, but for the Tikka 222 Varmint, it will work perfectly with std a 0 MOA base.

But then I got thinking about the baby Tikka and that crappy Nitrex scope. I took it off, went up to my office, and ordered a Burris 2-7x35mm. It's got good glass and is properly proportioned for the baby T3. It will look elegant with the 2-7.

For crisp, clear images, Burris and Nikon lenses work for me. The LOW Bushnells do as well.
