Tikka T3X Superlite limbsaver pad help

[Agross]

I recently picked up a tikka t3x superlite in 270 win. I wanted to swap out the pad to a limbsaver airtech. I called them, went over the dimensions and what the gun was with the lady and she told what model I needed. I figured I would do this to save any headache of me screwing it up and ordering the wrong one. Well that didn’t work. She told me the wrong model. After a couple weeks it showed up and the screw holes don’t line up. I called and talked to them again. We went over the numbers again and she tells me if that one (10830), doesn’t fit my only other option is a slip on, which I don’t really want. Then I get to pay return shipping which was a bit irritating seeings how it wasn’t really my fault I don’t feel . I assumed the people at limbsaver knew their product. Oh well I guess not a huge deal. So I did some more searching on here and found an older thread that asked a similar question to mine People responded with two different models. So my question is, those that have the same model rifle which airtech pad are you using, the 10826 or the 10803? Of course both are out of stock right now, so if anybody has one they want to get rid of , let me know. Thanks

First you typed 10830 then you typed 10803, not sure if that’s part of the confusion.

I run the 10803 without any issues on my Tikka, hope this helps.

Correct. 10830 is the one they told me I needed and what I ordered and received. And then I searched in here and found people that said they use 10803 and 10826. Maybe I didn’t explain that clearly the first time

I've used 10826 before and it fit perfectly.

I’m still curious as to y the two different pads are so similar. Is one technically for one model tikka and the other for a different model ?

I used 10803 without issue.
