got me a new tikka t3 in lefthand in 270win.,first grps well under 1in ,looks like a good one. weighs in a pound less then my rem 700 and kicks less. thats a surprise.

The Tikka has a better stock design than the 700BDL.

A Red Rider has better stock design than a 700BDL!

I just picked up my LH Tikka T3, 300win. I have not shot it but I am excited. It will come in 2lb 13 oz less than my Ruger 300win.with a bigger scope!

I`ll be interested to hear how that T3 300 Win Mag fires, they are a light rifle. Nothing a decent recoil pad wouldnt cure though.

I'll post a range report, I put a Leupold 3 X 9,VXII on it silver of course, SS rifle!!
