[QUOTE="davidu, post: 2000511, member: 115072"] From the web site of a respected custom rifle company in Texas Hill Country rifles, “ [B][B]For many years,[/B] Hill Country Rifles offered our Harvester rifle, built on a Remington 700 barreled action. Each factory rifle would be rigorously inspected before going to our custom shop to be built into a Harvester.[B]This was a tremendously successful product line, until we stopped production due to our dissatisfaction with factory barrel and chamber quality.[/B] We Are Relaunching Our Harvester Rifle Series Using A Well-Known Sako Product; The Tikka T3 Light[/B] The Tikka T3 Light gives us a lightweight platform with a detachable box magazine and a short, quick 60-degree bolt throw, Sako extractor and adjustable trigger. We have been very pleased with the machining quality of the barrels and chambers and are confident we can guarantee a sub-inch grouping rifle at 100 yards with factory ammunition.” It’s a bit of an affirmation of the Tikka rifle. More and more companies are bringing Tikka aftermarket parts I the market. . After talking to tech at Trigger tech I was told they are working on an aftermarket Tikka trigger. I hope it’s the Diamond Series as the oem Tikka trigger with a light spring is hard to beat. Removed a Timney 2stage I purchased and put the Tikka back in. Timney Is a great company, but the trigger feel just didn’t suit me. I know other factory rifles can manufacture excellent shooters, but IMHO, Tikka does it very consistently. [/QUOTE]
