[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 501390, member: 505"] I have six Tikka T-3 Lights. Three I have shot extensively to 800 yards. They are 300 WSM, 300 winchester and 338 winchester. All I did to any of them is freefloat the (factory freefloated?) barrel. I can easily take game with any of them to the 800 yards I shoot regularly. If 800 yards is all you are going to shoot these weigh 6 3/8 pounds and are a pleasure to hunt all over the mountains with. You can find them on sale in the $500 range. For a deer/elk combo rifle to 800 yards the 300 winchester or 338 winchester would be excellent in this rifle. trigger is crisp adjustable. I am sold on them after carrying one all over Alaska last year killing stuff to 800 yards. You can spend more and get a heavier rifle but they will not outshoot my tikkas in a factory rifle at 800 yards. I am having one turned into the new 338 SIN that should be ready soon. [/QUOTE]
