Exactly. It's a cheap basic rifle.

Lol so its basically just a facelift model

I like the more open ejection port, as the T3 one is annoyingly small. ONE of the reasons I own a 595.
The fancy adjustable stock? - something more to break
The recoil pad? - maybe better than having to buy a limb saver.
Quiet stock? yeah maybe.

Apart from that cant really see a lot of improvements but maybe the ejection port would be enough for me.

H&F? typical NZ retailer who thinks they can rout us...

wonder have they figured out a way to stop the bolt falling out so easy

Probably now comes with "spare parts kit including bolt"

They could glue boxing gloves onto hunters hands haha. My T3 bolt takes a hard squeeze and pretty much 2 hands to take out. It's never come out on its own

Difficult when you have a rifle sold in such high numbers, I guess they could screen people so that less idiots who don't know how to stop the bolt from falling out end up owning one!

I have a suspicious the people loosing their Tikka bolts are the ones that like doing the classic kiwi "half cock" method, I lost a couple of rounds of ammo doing this and decided it was not for me as I was too miserable to go dropping ammo around the place

It's all a bit "Meh"for me.... I was hoping for something a little, well, more?.... It's like upgrading your 97 Toyota Corolla for the 98 Version.... I guess though it is a Tikka so it was never gonna be anymore than that? That's why they have Sako.

But if you upgraded a Toyota corolla you would still have quality

Lighter would have been a nice feature
