TSS Outfitters in Utah has T3x Stainless Lite rifles in various calibers for $682.25 with free shipping. Tikka also has a $75 rebate for T3x rifles bought in August bringing the price down to $607.25. They have some other models for similarly low prices. https://tssoutfitters.com/page/1/?orderby=price&s=tikka+T3x&post_type=productBtw, earlier this morning they had two of the Stainless Lite .223's with the 1:8 twist in stock, but now they only have one...

I also have one of the 1:8 T3x Lites. That thing is scary accurate even with factory 55grn Vmax! Shot a 3/4” 5 shot group at 200 yards the other day even with a 10mph crosswind.

That's what I want to hear. I'm left handed and got a LH T3 .223 a few years ago. However, without telling anyone, they had changed the twist from 1:8 to 1:10 which was a bit disconcerting when it arrived. It's still as you say scary accurate with a 50 gr. V-Max or a 68 gr. HPBT but that's the heaviest it's good for and I'm wanting to throw some 75 or even 80 grain ELD-M's. They did make a LH T3x .223 1:8 (I think, I'm not sure) but they discontinued that chambering entirely in the LH model. So when I saw these prices on a standard RH model that was enough to make me pull the trigger.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
