ostrea Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Finally got my certificate a couple of weeks ago after a 5 month wait! Picked my new gun up a couple of days later Tikka T3 Super Vermint 223 cal Wildcat predator 8 mod and a 2.5-10x56 S&B Scope that i bought second hand a few months back. Only shot on the range at 100 yds so far looking forward to a bit of lamping with it. Happy days! Edited August 4, 2010 by ostrea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ostrea Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Yes George it was me that bought it from Northallerton had originally asked my local shop to order one for me back in march after 4 months still no sign of one coming so i sent emails all over the country Northallerton were the only ones with one on the shelf in that cal, 380mile round trip to collect it! Typical though GMK must have had a delivery in the last week seems to be a few advertised Gun Trader etc. Tanks for all the comments Decided on this model as there where some excellent reviews for all the Tikka range this one has a straight stock, good for me because i have more or less lost my sight in my right eye and naturally right handed with this i can shoot left handed and my son can use it on the range right handed.

I bought my Stainless synthetic t3 from them the other day with a wildcat p8 also its a cracking set up but i only have a 8x56 S&B not the variable but still amazing glass and the rifle shoots sub 1/8th MOA groups at 100 yards.
