Did anyone ever get one and how do they shoot? Looked on Whitakers but they say no productive found when I click on them. Was just tooling around with the notion of trying to find one, threaded version preferably.

They shoot extremely well. Mine had an affinity for 52 grain smks and H335 and when properly bagged would go into the .3s very consistently. Lots of handloads were .5s. Factory loads were the variable. Some shot well, some poor. Poor could mean up to 1.5 moa. A good factory load usually was in the .7s I sold my heavy barrel due to the fact that my T3 Lite was equally as accurate from a mechanical accuracy standpoint. The hard part was the fundamentals. You really have to have perfect form with such a lite rifle. Overall, it was a phenomenal rifle. Traded it to a campfire friend. It accounted for around 50 coyotes before that happened. THE CHAIR IS AGAINST THE WALL. The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world. The website is up and running! www.lostriverammocompany.com

The issue I had centered on the chamber. Even though it was 8 twist, it seemed to have a SAMMI chamber with a short throat. I could not get it to shoot heavier bullets well at all. The person I sod t to had nouse for heavier bullets and was quite pleased with it.

Mine in .223 felt like a kid's toy, wasn't near as accurate as they're made out to be and had broken parts in the magazine latch in short order. I borrowed a T3 .270 for an axis hunt on Molaki, and wasn't anymore impressed. It was good enough for a 200 yard shot on a 150 pound buck though...

I will be contacting you about the mag mod. I’ve started shooting a little again and dug out that same rifle. Right now I’m just shooting 68’s at mag length but was studying the magazine mod the other night. My stepdad got one from Hig and he had already fixed it. I assume you take the bottom off and cut it back the put in the bar stock?

I have a bunch of 69, 75, 77, grain bullets to try in this once I get it. Josh, Did your rifle come threaded or did you get it done? Running a 5/8×24 thread or 1/2×28?
