I Joined The Dark Side - Bought a Tikka

[Jason]

I needed something to replace my aging Ruger M77 MKII 300wm that I’ve been hunting with since 2006. I wanted to build a lighter weight rifle and just haven’t had time. So I ended up buying a Tikka T3x Superlite in 300wm to fill the void for a while.
I ordered a Mountain Tactical 20moa rail and a set of MDT Elite scope rings.

I had a Tikka T3 lite in 300wm, loved that gun. Kicked like a mule, but was extremely accurate with factory ammo. I don’t think you’ll regret the purchase.

Geez nooo!!  Just because its light, affordable, and accurate?   Cmon we’re better than that!  :-)

You will not regret your decision, welcome to the club!

I have the same one and another in 30-06. Never considered myself to be a dark side type person but if that’s the word, I’m very ok with it.  I run factory stocks on both but purchased an aftermarket bell and Carlson(I think) for a 243 awhile back and it was damn nice. Unfortunately I sold it to a brown Toyota Tundra driving west side member years back so he could hunt the bigger forest grouse over here.
Not sure how faired or liked it

Can’t go wrong with a tikka. 
I bought my first one back in 2005. Loved it so much I’ve bought a couple more over the last few years. Been happy with all of em. The super light model I have shoots exceptionally well.  I’ve talked quite a few people into getting them and everybody has been happy with them

I will eventually buy a new stock for it. Looking at the Mesa Precision Altitude stock.

I love my tikka in 338 Winchester mag. Put a limb saver recoil pad on. Makes recoil feel like 30-06

Nice! Those look like awesome stocks. I put a bell and Carlson on my super light. It’s a little on the heavy side but I like the feel of it. Looks pretty good too

Have one on my Tikka t3 lite 300wsm and it's real nice to shoot.

They’re ugly but I feel they’re one of the better factory poly stocks

I agree, the factory Tikka stock is stiffer in the fore end than most factory plastic stocks.
