Thread: Crappy Tikka T3 barrels??

I for one wouldn't be buying a carbon barrel, regardless of how your rifles grouping. Have been involved with a few Christianson's over the years and they shoot great. But is the $ necessary? - not for this fella. And it appears to my untrained eye that you factory barrel may be a very good barrel, maybe a very good rifle, just thinking. Ive had a Tikka for nearly 40 years now, admittedly its one of the old originals, but man it shoots as good as the day I bought it, won't ever part with it.
