Yea
makes it is all up weight 3.kg

Good. Nice.

I have to "come out". After 35 years of wood-blue rifles (first one I bought myself after using Dad's 303 SMLE was a M55 Tikka in 308 followed by many others but favourites have been a BSA "Hunter" in 7x57 and latterly a couple of Mauser Kurz's) I finally got a Tikka T3 Lite SS in 6.5x55. Its a damned fine rifle and apart from the balance when carrying I like it a lot, has all of the "pros" I've ever read on T3's and none of the supposed cons bug me.

Yea same with me a was never going to buy one but I did and it is a bloody great rifle.

Great set up mate. Wouldn't find too many more accurate or lighter than that. Also good choice of glass. I have a Z5 swaro on my .270 sauer and love it

Nice. Nice calibre too!

Yea its my third Swarovski and they are bloody awesome

Very nice setup , what model senator did you get?

I think it's based on the S1 skinny but a new lighter weight model

Ok, thanks. Will have a talk to Jason at some point.

nice, what barrel length and who did the gunsmithing?

I think the first lot was done by Gunworks before I brought it who did the fluting and barrel shortening which is 20," then I had Dan Hardy do a full half bolt and safety mod and fit a gen 5 onto it and Jason at Senator did the stock.
