Title: Any ideas
Post by: Thenewguy on January 03, 2010, 08:41:03 PM: As to the best place to find a used Tikka t3? I have looked online but would prefer to pick it up locally. Cabellas does not have one and I don;t have many other ideas. Thanks!

p.s. sorry if this is a repost, having problems getting it to post

Post by: Thenewguy on January 04, 2010, 09:46:07 PM: I am interested in a .270 or a 7mm. I would prefer laminated stainless but would go for synthetic. My price range is slightly flexible but around 500. I would prefer a used ggun as I hope to get a lot of use out of it and not worry about scratching it up

I reputable guy in Texas. I don't know if it's still available though. This ad was from October but didn't list it as sold.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Tikka T3 6.5x55I have a used Tikka T3 lite stainless synthetic. There may be a few light scuff marks in the stock-nothing that stands out. This one is borishly accurate as Tikkas are know to be. I will include 3 new boxes of hornaday 140 grn SP interlocks and 1 full box and an additionsl 12 rounds of the remington core loks 140 grn.

You can find this same gun NIB on GB for about $580 + shipping and FFL trnasfer fees

The hornaday ammo runs about $26 + shipping on midway if they have it in stock and the remington ammo runs about $27 per box.

So there is about $118 worth of ammo along with the gun and scope rings-Will sell everything for $600 shipped to your FFL"

it's a 270 short fatty but it's a hell of a round and the price is right.
