Hold on there young man.
Tikka? I believe they ran out of them after the M55/65
Just called them the same name, bit like Fords really.

Dont worry mate, he's deluded

Funny, only sako owners say that

I'm yet to figure who's on who's side here
However
I've used M55, right through to m695and the 590/95 in between
Like Tikka, jut not fussed on the T3, still, when a young fellow at work asked what to buy for around here, I say T3 7mm 08

Just got back from gunworks after getting the chop to 17".

Pretty light and compact wee thing. Looking forward to taking it into the hills.

not realy new but a few mods since built a year so ago so here's the 260 (new and improved)
tikka t3 action (blued)
trueflite ultra match fluted and duracoated 18" 1-8.5 twist
dpt over barrel
egw rail + burris z rings
Nikon 4.5-14x40sf
sitting in a boyeds laminated stock

still need to glass bed the action as its not the best fit in the world but its shoot able as is till funds allow

This has been my rifle for 30 years, its a 358 norma on a P17 action and a Douglass Preimum barrel 26 inches long built by Din Collins. just got it back from Scott Trail who fitted the T2 brake as the recoil was to much for me now. It kicks less than my 308 now, great brake

Nice long barrel too, proper old school. Good classic stuff.

Try a new recoil padnice to see you can get more use out your rifle though

I think it was the late great Bill Axbey that once quoted, the 358 Norma was the best kicker of all kickers he ever owned

It weighs 4 kilos and i get a 250 grain spitzer doing 3000 fps .The muzzle brake has upset the barrel harmonics and ill have to sort out a new load, its opened out to a three inch group
