Congrats on a great rifle. I love mine. Used it to shoot out to 1500 yesterday. Good luck with it.

DROOL.....All accounts show this to be one fine and very precise rifle.

Tikka only takes a back seat to their sister company Sako, imho when it comes to factory rifles.

Love my .270 T3x, but yours looks a little more fun

Went to a friend’s hunting lease and I was able to sight in my rifle. Started at 50 yards to get a group on paper. I was using 168gr Federal GMM.
At 100 yards I made a minor elevation and windage correction. Adjusted my turrets to 0. I then proceeded to move out to 200 yards
I adjusted about .5 MRADs of elevation and fired 3 rounds. All shots were prone with a rear bag. At the time I was about 20’ above sea level, 30.233Hg, 76.6F, 42% humidity and almost no wind.
Best group of the day measured .751” @ 200 yards. I must say I am thoroughly impressed with this setup. I’m sure I will improve as I get more trigger time.

They are nice, I have a t3x super lite in 270 and I'm thinking of getting one in 6.5 creedmore if I can get my hands on one.
I'm not really a tikka fanboy like some people are and I still prefer my kimber Montana or my m70 extreme conditions rifle but for the $$$ it sure is hard to beat the tikkas. That being said, while I agree that sako makes a difference e rifle, I just don't like them, never been a fan.
I tried to fall in love with a sako finnlite but it just didn't pull at my heartstrings for one reason or another.

I've been researching this online and already looking at upgrading/personalizing.
Question: Does the bolt knob simply unscrew from the bolt handle or is it one solid piece?
I would want to upgrade the bolt knob but it seems like all the after market bolt handles are stainless instead of black.
