[QUOTE="4LClover, post: 440906, member: 27558"] I have a couple Tikka T3's in SS lite. I would recommend them to anybody who likes a well machined, accurate rifle. The workmanship is pretty amazing. I like the removable mags too. The Finn's make great stuff and it all shoots sub-moa for me. The only "limitations" of these rifles is that the mags limit C.O.L. which can be a pain with some cartridges. This has been an irritation with my Sako A7 in 300WSM. However, my T3's in .243 and 30-06 do not have this problem and I really doubt the .308 would since it is a bigger version of .243. I also wish the barrels were 24" instead of 22 3/8". I could never recommend a Sub-moa to anybody in good faith due to a bad experience I had with one. They are all made in Japan by Howa and I thought the workmanship was pretty shabby and the bolt quite sticky. I think a T3 varmint in .308 would be hard to beat, but if you have a 1000$ to spend, why not wait a little longer and just buy a Cooper for 1200$? That is a choice you would never regret. [/QUOTE]
