Wonder what ludicrous price hunting and fishing will sell em for.

When I clicked the link, I was hoping for more personally.
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" :)Quote:

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.
Lighter would have been a nice feature
But if you upgraded a Toyota corolla you would still have qualityQuote:

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 ownQuote:

Best comment so far
so, dose that mean the owners of the current t3 model now have the old one thats way better than the new one, so is worth more than what they paid for it?
You have made a good point.Quote:

Exactly. It's a cheap basic rifle.Quote:

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!Quote:

If it ain't broke... Don't fix it. I'm glad it's stayed the same rifle. If you want a change get something else. Or stare at something else on gun porn :p. Yeah I have lost ammo but how would you lose a bolt?? Anyway now I have a half cock safety position. SSRNZ can do it. It really works.
Wonder how long before someone loses their interchangeable pistol grip and what horrendous price Beretta will charge for them .
