Thread: Tikka Problem

Well my OCD has played up again and with a xmas voucher for a new gun (can't have too many) burning a hole in my pocket i went out and picked up my 4th T3, yup cant help myself.

Here they are

Top one is my .284 long range rig shooting 168g Berger classic hunters wearing a Swaro 3.5-18x44 and an ASE Utra can (SL5)
Next is my faithful 7mm08 bush/slip rig, shooting 140g Berger VLD and wearing a Luppy VX1 4-12x40 with LR reticle and a Dan Can
New to the set is a .243 designated bush gun, soon to be shooting Sierra 100g Gameking wearing a Luppy 2-7x33 and a DPT
Finally my .223 Kid training gun, shooting Sierra 65g Gameking wearing a Luppy 3-9x40 and a Dan Can

Yup i hear you say that any one could have done the job of another, but why not have one of each. Maybe one day i may sell a gun and upgrade a scope but for now we are good to go.

I have a similar problem, but Rem mod 7's as well as Tikkas now. So twice as many rifles and overlaps, but who cares you only live once eh.

I don't see a problem, like the family photo though

A man can never have too many guns. Enough said

Nice. I have a similar issue, I've got two 788s, (222, 22-250), and am looking at a third in 308.
hhmmm.

The only problem I can see is grabbing the wrong bolt for the rifle you are about to use.
And that the stock on the bottom one isn't in my safe.

I can swap you for a lite standard stock, just to stop that one from getting a sore arm from carrying it
