Yes there is a problem with T3's...a big problem....They don't make 'em for us lefties!!! #@&*

The Tikka's I've seen shot and have shot/loaded for were very nice overall and shot well.

I have a Tikka T3 Lite, and it is the best gun for money you pay for it.

I just got the T3 in 7mm and was hoping someone could recommend a factory load that agrees with it. Not worried about price, just don't want to go through a few boxes trying to find the best load............thanks.

Hi all

I'm new here. Just joined. Cool site. I've got a Tikka Hunter 30-06 and have had it for 15 years and hunt with it several months a year. Super smooth comfortable and the bolt action slides out by itself even at -47. Love it.

I have a Tikka Whitetail Hunter in 7mm-08 and it is an excellent gun for the money. .75" groups at 100 yards all day long with Winchester Ballistic Silvertips. Shot two deer this last season with it and it was so easy to carry and hold. The deer didn,t care for it tho! Good luck.

For Sale- $450(rifle only) Must Go!

TheTikka T3 Hunter in 6.5x55mm mounted with a Leupold 3.5-10 scope is anice rifle. I just tested it for the first time at Brady Ranch in Florida, the gun performed flawleslly taking three Axis Deer including a record buck at 335yds.

I would recommend getting an extra magazine for the field just in case you lose the original.

TheTikka will get the job done!

I just bought a Tikka T3 Lite in 30-06. Recoil isn't too bad at all, especially for such a light rifle. Can't wait to try it out in the field. Good luck.

The T3 Lite is one FUGLY rifle, IMHO it's about as ugly as a hat full of a$$&0!^s. BUT you know what? It's such a damned fine rifle (and an absolute STEAL for around $500!). They shoot circles around rifles costing twice as much and they put most other "value/bargain rifles" too shame in just about any classification you can name. Run the bolts on a Savage, 700SPS, 70 SuperShadow, CZ and such. Then run the bolt on a T3, [:-] you'll think you just traded your wife of 25 years in for a European supermodel whose only English vocabulary consists of the one word... "YES"!!!

Truth be known, if the only rifle in your possession came from Finland... you probably aren't missing out on anything but having to clean all those other guns!
