No kidding, that’s like 2016/17 pricing. I still remember when the stainless t3 could be had for 329.00
I still kick myself in the a$$ every single time I think about passing up those t3 deals from euro optic. I was unsure of the website because the prices were so cheap and had only handle one tikka to date at that time.
If only I knew then what I know now, I would have snatched up one in every caliber haha

They had them for that price at sportsman’s back in ~ 2010. My dad bought a few and still has them, I always thought they were just cheap budget guns because they were that cheap and came with rings. Now I’m wishing I’d bought half a dozen of them.

I weighed a stainless t3x lite 300 wsm, 6.3 lbs. I weighed a non stainless 300 wsm superlite od green, 6.0 lbs even. Same scale same day. So .3 lbs difference.

Unless SW has a typo, they carry a 20” barrel 30-06 that I don’t think Euro Optic carries. A 20” barrel 30-06 would be a great suppressed platform. Probably get 24” barrel 308 velocities out of a compact package. I’ve considered one but they are sold out. Someone else got the memo.

Check this out

20” barrel 30-06 is in stock. Dump the tan stock and get the new KRG Echo. Would be a bad to the bone suppressed hunting rig.

I believe they also made the roughed veil or whatever it was called (the white/grey one) with a 20” barrel.

I have a t3x 30-06 that has been cut back to 18” and it’s one of my favorite rifles. I went with it over the factory 20” because the veil one isn’t actually stainless steel, just coated.

I bet that thing is handy and will let you know you’re alive when you send it. As Whelen said, 30-06 is never a bad choice.
