I purchased the T3 synthetic in .308 about two months ago and mounted a Leupold VX-II 3X9 on it. Several 100 yard 3 shot 1/2" groups and one 3 shot 1/4" group shooting Hornady light magnum 150gr interlocs. Needless to say I am very satisfied with the rifle. I did have concerns regarding the polymer magazine initially but it feeds the rounds without any deformation to the tips of the soft point at all. And the action is so smooth. I' ve owned a variety of rifles of other makes and traded many off but this Tikka is one that I' ll keep.
