Over the years I've done a real good job of collecting rifles, mostly left hand rifles, but I haven't done a good job of utilizing them. So, beginning today I'm going to start thinning the herd and it will begin with my Tikka T3 257 Roberts AI. Here are the details: LH Tikka T3 For sale is my Tikka T3 in 257 Roberts AI. I bought this rifle new and it has not been shot much since the conversion to 257 Bob. The barrel work was done by James Kobe in MN. The cerakote was done by Michael Ware of Controlled Chaos in Iowa. He also micro slicked the bolt. The rifle was punched out to AI 2 years ago by Steve Baldwin of Mechanical Accuracy here in OK. Steve also threaded it 5/8 x 24 for my can. It has a Manners stock and Wyatt bottom metal with an AI magazine. There is less than 50 rounds down the 1-10’’ twist barrel. I cannot recall what barrel Jim used when he did the barrel swap. The rifle is $1,250 shipped to your FFL.

Sweet Georgia Brown! Good thing this wasn't posted before Easter. Now I'll have to wait and see what others are coming that I can't live without.
Free Bump for a sweet set up.

Definitely not one you will see every day. GLWYS
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Amazing rifle, simply beautiful. I also have an 11 year old that is going to need a LH rifle. Didn't know the little fella was left eye dominant until I bought him his first bow in right hand - which had to go back. I'll also be watching to see what other beautiful rifles you have available that you are passing on to a new generation of hunter. Kudos to you for passing on great weapons that will get more use in others hands!
Absolute best of luck with your sales!

Thanks, Dean It shoots well with either 257 Factory ammo or AI ammo. That's one of the benefits of the 257 AI is that it shoots factory ammo as well as it did before I had it punched out to. AI.

Okay, for you dads & granddads who have younger ones coming on, I have a Tikka factory synthetic stock I can include with the rifle so you can cut the factory stock down to correct length of pull and save the Manners stock for when they get bigger.

I don’t think I’ve ever muttered the phrase “too bad I’m not left handed” until just now. That’s a dang nice Bob A.I. ! Good luck with finding it a new home.
