Thread: Tikka 223 Bush Hunter

Gday fellas
Ive been googling Tikka T3x's as I'm looking to get a 223 for shooting the odd fallow. Has anyone got anything good or bad to say about the Bush Hunter package that H and F sell? Thanks for any info.

I have the rifle in .308, no complaints. Decided against a package for various reasons. All the components in the H&F package are good with the possible exception of the scope rings. Probably not an issue with a .223. You might want to make sure the twist rate suits you and cost up buying the individual components from different sources before buying.

My mate got one in .308 I think it was the v1 stupid little bit of fluting and barrel is a heavier contour than the standard.
I'm not sure if the v2 has been changed but I would just buy the std version or a superlite and get DPT to cut and thread it to 18"

New version has a standard barrel.

Get a standard 223 and take it down to Friwi in Hamilton . He will chop it and put a lovely MK11 can on it with perfect balance.Dude knows his stuff. Quality advice quality service quality product.

Thanks for the advice. Sounds like I need a standard t3. Who is friwi?
