NEW Left Handed Tikka 223 Pre-Order begins

[Woolley Bugger]

So I was going initially joking when I mentioned getting a second, but the responses got me thinking. Is it a straightforward home job to swap out a different caliber barrel? What’s the approximate cost for a conversion that will maintain good accuracy?

I feel I do need a 6.5 to go with my manbun and matching Sitka outfit with the tags hanging off.

As much that would help us its definitely worth just getting on from eurooptic at that point you'd need barrel for maybe 150, and tooling to remove the other unless you have a friend with a barrel vise, wrench, no-go go gauges etc. https://www.eurooptic.com/tikka-t3x-lite-stainless-synthetic-lh-65-cm-22bbl-1-8-5-8in-x-24tpi-synthetic-stainless-jrtxb48222mt

I definitely don’t need it, but a second one of these rifles with the bolt face opened up to 6 ARC sure would be cool… Tempting

 

[gbflyer]

2nd one!

6 more to go

I don't need another...I don't need another...

Just think. If you had a spare- how many of us would be willing to buy it off of you for a premium right now!

The man has a point. If anyone had an extra, I would have bought it by now for a good bit more than they paid

 

[TechsanHunter]

5 to go!

 

[ckt3]

Four more! Cmon lurkers, buy these rifles!!

I was on the first run of these. So far 53 vmax, 62 ELD and 75 amax all are shooting under 1" with 5 shot groups. Testing a 10 shot group of 62 ELD tomorrow and the 77 TMK is finally loaded and will see what is up with those tomorrow. I'm using TAC for everything and happy with velocities as well.

Ordered. One left to go.
Sometimes I dislike being left handed. Certainly costs more.

 

[ckt3]

I ended up here after learning I’m left eye dominant as a righty

 

[2muchhp]

Done

 

[TechsanHunter]

Alright @Unknown Munitions - you have 50 deposited pre-orders!
