I've been fighting the Tikka bug for several months now and I broke. Just pulled the trigger on a T3 Lite, camo, stainless, fluted, 270Win.....what have I done? That sounds like an awesome rig. They didn't have any other chambering's? The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

As have I - I've been intrigued with the Tikka's for a while, and broke when I recently found a Forest in 6.5x55...

I would love to find a tikka in a 6.5x55 around here. That might just come home with me. I found mine here and had them ship to my FFL - seemed good to deal with and are still showing 6.5x55s in stock in both Hunter and Forest models (if you can live with blue/walnut). I think there in PA - see how easy it is? http://gunsinc.com/product.aspx?ProductId=112009&title=BERETTA+TIKKA+T3+FOREST+6.5X55+SWEDISH+22%22+FREE+FLOAT+BARREL+WALNUT+STOCK+3+ROUND+JRTF651 http://gunsinc.com/product.aspx?ProductId=111911&title=BERETTA+TIKKA+T3+HUNTER+6.5X55+SWEDISH+22.4%22+HAMMER+FORGED+BARREL+SINGLE+STAGE+TRIGGER+JRTA351

Check out the online videos on the trigger and bolt disassembly and etc. The Tikkas all shoot well and some shoot REALLY well. Also, throw away the rings that came with it and get some Talley LW rings.

After I calibrated, I weighed the bare rifle again and it came in at 5lbs 14oz. How much is a Super Lite supposed to weigh? 24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

Also saw someone had stolen the mag from the CTR SS...dickheads everywhere. Last edited by ColdCase1984; 05/01/15. �When in doubt, I whip it out.� Uncle Ted

On my box it says T3 270WIN SLITE. Or you can weight it . Weight should be about 5 pounds 12 ounces. I think only Cabelas has the Camo version of the Superlight Sportsmans Warehouse version has a black stock Faster horses,Younger women,Older Whiskey,More money
