Does anyone have this current setup on there Tikka T3? If so can you give me some feedback. I had a set of Talley's on it but one side of the mount broke! Never seen a set of Talley's brake. Greg replaced them but take god it happened when I was killing paper and not taking a shot on a deer. Since then I just can't trust them (Talley) anymore. Here is a link to what I'm looking at.

Dednutz mounts are 1st class and bulletproof. I mounted a set on my Tikka and I have put them on my muzzleloader which has substantial recoil and never a problem. Very nicely made.

I wouldn't use any other mount for a Tikka. BTW, you can do a lot better than $59.95 plus free shipping if you shop around.

I use Warne rings on all tikka's.Best setup I have found for them.Super strong,clamp right to the receiver groove. They also don't mark the scope with ring marks.


1 and done

Same here, lows with a Zeiss 3x9-40. Mediums may have been a better choice in my case but lows work fine.

Warnes were my second choice but I wanted to use a screw in mount rather than clamp directly to the receiver plus they tend be a little on the heavy side but you certainly can't go wrong with Warnes. I have them on many other rifles.

That's what I put on mine too and couldn't be happier with the choice. I accidentally found them while looking at/for Talleys.

I'm using Warnes, too. I find them strong, more available and cheaper than dednutz. They are a bit heavy and not as easy to install.

the factory rings work just fine. I don't get all the hate for them. the only problem I have had is they are low when you use them on a t3 varmint if the scope is over 40mm. I think warne is the heaviest duty setup out there. depending how much height you need, warne is a good way to go, if you need a little more height, the talley lightweights work alright. one thing I have noticed when using the factory rings is they are really straight and true when you go to mount the scope, not much bore sighting needed and you can tell they are not binding anything.
