The last T3 I used (probably only one actually) had a vague heavy trigger (squeeze... creep... squeeze harder... is it going to break anytime soon? SQUEEBANG) and grouped about 3" at 100yds. Presumably the accuracy could have been improved with different ammo and/or rifle tweaking and the trigger could have been adjusted better, but it sure as hell wasn't flawless.
Shot it back to back with a Savage and I can't think of a single thing the Savage didn't do better. Trigger, action smoothness, safety ergonomics, accuracy. Oh the T3 was lighter because I was comparing it with a wood/blued Savage, the synthetic versions are about the same weight.
No problems with fussy triggers or feeding hollow points for my Savages (probably only tried HPs in 22lr and 223 I think). Maybe you were unlucky with them and I was unlucky with Tikka, you can get the odd bad example from any manufacturer.
You are the first person I have ever read bag the Tikka/Sako trigger.
It is widly reveiwed as one of the best factory triggers.
you must have tried one some home "smith" had "improved" ?
