Just purchased a Tikka T3X in Alpine Veil 30-06. Been a browning guy for years but heard good things about Tikka. Anyone have any experience with this rifle in this caliber?
I have an older T3 in 30-06 and they are shooters. i will say the 1:11 twist isnt ideal but you'll not want to shoot the heavier bullets in the 06 anyway. if you want a lighter trigger pick up a spring from Unknown or mountain tactical. They are great rifles!
I love my tikka 30-06, it’s pretty much all I use now. Mine has had the barrel cut and and a few other small changes made but nothing crazy.
I know that 5 shot groups don’t tell the whole story but I pulled that gun out the other day after not shooting it since September, and it stacked all 5 180g partitions into one hole.
I wish it was a bit lighter as it’s right around 8lbs but it shoots so well that I really don’t care too much.
