I get it, though. It’s a cost saving measure. I held off on buying a Tikka for a while because I didn’t want to feel like I had a budget gun. When I finally got a Tikka and took it to the range, all the little things stopped bothering me pretty quick.


I haven't experienced the accuracy from them that others have. Maybe it's because the stock doesn't fit me well at all. I have outstanding accuracy from Kimbers and M70's that others don't experience, and those fit me like a glove.


Don't feel bad tzone. I have a buddy that can't shot a Tikka to save his life:

We've all seen guys at the range with this problem. It happens. Then there's me and my other buddy (Mark) with the same rifle:

............ so you can't blame the poor accuracy from the groups (3 shot groups) above, shot by my buddy Troy.... This would also explain why some guys really prefer shooting 3 shot groups... When a guy says, 3 shot groups are good enough, they are usually shooters like my buddy Troy.... Nuff said.. He does shoot the hell out of deer though wink..... Just sayin.. I don't think I've ever had another 5.9 pound rifle shoot this good:

Just to confirm the rifle is pretty consistent.... I'm hanging on to this one.. I have nothing at all to complain about with this T3x Superlite...
