He was asking what caliber you are using. Is this a 243?

Bought a Tikka wideland 6.5cm that just flat out shoots. This is at 200 yards with 135gr Bergers and RL26 moving at 2960fps.

Ok, thanks. Just an FYI, all Tikka’s are the same action length so the stocks are interchangeable.

T3 or T3X stocks?

T-Plex Reticle?

How’s the glass? Would you rate it on par with VX3 glass?

Thanks for sharing and thats a nice antelope too! This will be going on a 6.5 creed CA Mesa so I think it should work just fine as well.

How’s the eye relief on the Maven? I have read some people say its short and some say its not.

Which sights are those?

No problem! Ballistic Tips are starting to pop up a lot of places online now.

I also agree with this. If you are mainly hunting deer/antelope under 400 yards and already like your daughters T3 then I would say the T3X Lite or Superlite in a 6.5 Creed would be perfect! I have nothing against the 260 and think its a great cartridge, but with the Creed’s popularity it is...

I have never been a big Vortex guy either until I tried the Razor LHT. I have the 3-15 and it has been totally reliable so far and very clear and bright glass and also made in Japan. I believe its only around 20oz and can still be found for $1k at Liberty Optics.

Round count?

Can’t help with the brass but if you need some more 150gr BT’s midway has them. I think their free shipping ends tonight as well. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1010508373?pid=273029
