SOLD/EXPIRED Sold

[6point5x284]

I have a Tikka T3 Lite Stainless in .300 Win Mag for sale. I have upgraded it with an Olive Green B&C Medalist stock, upgraded action bolts, and aluminum bolt shroud. Gun has been on a lot of hunting trips but still looks good. I recently picked up a Legendary Arms Works to replace it, and am looking to sell it. Brake was made and installed by Mike Palazzo who has a great reputation, however I was not impressed by his brake metal work. It works very well, but I noticed small tooling marks on the brake. Rifle will come with a pair of silver matching Talley Ultralight rings in either Medium or Low (1" scope). Rifle shot Berger 185's OK with reloader 22, but had temp stability issues, and issues seating to the lands. Shot factory Federal Nosler Partitions very well. Everything else floats around 1-1.5 inches (have only tried one box of factory barnes TTSX, and a box of factory trophy bonded tip). Rifle probably has 85-100 rounds fired down the tube. Trigger is adjusted down, probably ~2.0 lbs. Will make a great rifle for someone, however I wasn't going to be able to work up a load with the 210+ bullets due to the seating depth being short in the factory magazine, so gave up and just used factory ammo, and that was fine for hunting the past 8 years. Thanks for looking. PM me with any questions.

$725.00 shipped to you FFL insured. Paypal is preferred, however check is OK but will not ship until it clears.

Please PM with any questions.

I'm sure there is a bunch of reload data for this guy, but what has worked for me out of this rifle (T3 lite) with 180gr. TTSX is 71Gr. IMR4350. Shoots sub MOA. As for the seating, it will be limited by the mag. I don't recall the OAL at the moment though, but it BARELY fits in the mag. GLWS

Re: WTS Tikka T3 Lite Stainless .300WM B&C Medalist + Muzzle Brake

Ya, I want to say it is 3.34? I was able to get a good load initially, but had velocity problems with the R22 between MT summer and winters. Had several .7" groups at 200 yards though at ~3030fps with the Berger 185's. The VLD's like to be on the lands however, and couldn't do that with the magazine, and didn't want to single feed. You're not the first person who told me their Tikka liked the 180 SST's. I actually have a brand new box of factory loaded Hornady 180 SST's, but put the scope on my LAW and never tried the SST's once the scope was off.

Thank you for the info.

Went a bit smaller with the SST (165) and they are more consistent with a bit more powder than the 180TTSX. Plus it's more fun watching woodchucks POP with those SSTs. (There is no such thing as overkill)
