Sexy New Tikka Lamnated SS 260 Remington, NON custom:)

[william101]

Nothing fancy,Brand new Tikka laminated SS 260 Remington with leupold VX3 6.5-20x50 30mm tube with side focus. Deadnuts one piece scope mount.Tikka just started importing these Laminated versions into country again after x amount of years. And to take advantage of the longrange capability of the 260 Remington cartridge ,I bought a Leica 1600B to go with it. I know 1600 yards is overkill. Next week out to range with a couple of boxes of factory corbon Performance Match 139 grain Lupua scenar and lapua Brass cartridges. Trigger is set at 2lbs.

Very nice - where in the holy hell were you able to find that thing? I've been looking for a 260 Tikka for a long time - having it in a laminated stock is even better.

lol!! That's what I thought when my bosses wholesaler( Davidson's guns ) only had one in their inventory. I snarfed it up fast.

Well finally got around to reloading for it, cramped for space in our apartment with no real Man cave just my kitchen table so I bought a portable lee hand press and love it alot!! Loaded up some 260 ammo using Nosler custom brass, 142 grn Nosler ABLR. H4350 powder,And shot this group! Every Tikka Rifle I have bought have always been very accurate!

Oh yea. Nosler brass, H4350, and 142 ABLR. Nice setup. Good to see it shoots. That Leica 1600B may come in handy after all!
