Tikka chamberings discussion

[Josh Wright]

Does the company realize how many of following they could sell?

6.5 Creedmoor
6.5x284 norma
26 nosler
280 AI
28 Nosler
30 Nosler
33 Nosler
And I am sure others they don't chamber....

I don't get it. Their action is one of the best. Who runs the marketing department over there? Seems like they leave money on the table. Bewildered rant over.

Any thoughts from others?

Also the twist rates and mag length
I would have bought a superlite in 300 wm if it wasn't limited in those departments. Bought a Browning instead

I wonder the same about most production rifle companies. I've finally given up on nitpicking through the everything I don't like, and cough up a little more cash for exactly what I want. It's just like the auto industry. They could build vehicles far better than they do, but so few people take advantage of the extra performance that it just isn't profitable. If you're after all out performance, you gotta build it yourself.

That's the thing. I'm a browning fan as well. They are continuing to offer more for the mountain hunter...hells canyon speed in the short actions and now the Browning xbolt pro.

If I were browning, I would buy a mold from mcmillan like they did with the game scout, but I'd buy it in the hunters edge.

I'd spiral flute the bolt, flute the barrel, and add the edge stock. That would be close to perfect for me.

Tikka does make some really cool stuff that just won't get imported for some reason. Some really cool chamberings and versions of the t3s.

I'd buy a T3 in 26 Nosler without question.
