activeviii Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Loving my T3. Its the first gun i reach for now days. if i do my bit then its a dream to use. you should have said last time you was over, you could have gone and put a few up her. IF! i ever get this variation and funds are allowing then the 6.5x55 T3 would be my first call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian_in_the_midlands Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 (edited) Unusual to see a thread with everyone is agreeing with each other. I can't fault my t3 hunter in .223 either. Out of interest - has anyone ever had any problems with the plastic bits?

Glenshooter Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Out of interest - has anyone ever had any problems with the plastic bits? Nope, and as I only get to use the rifle about once a month, I 'de-cock' the bolt when I'm storing it and use that rubber belt thingy to recock it and the plastic shroud has never broken. Some people seem to break them frequently but there are metal replacements that you can get for around £40 (IIRC at the CLA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 What a boring thread - everyone is agreeing with each other. To make matters worse - I can't fault my t3 hunter in .223 either. Out of interest - has anyone ever had any problems with the plastic bits? In my opinion it's not a boring thread as you say it is.It's just highlighting how good this rifle is.Sometimes the more feedback on a particular item the better as a potential buyer can see how other people like or dislike that certain item. I've had no problems with any plastic bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyb Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) Been out playing with my T3 today and some homeloads along with PM member "Gully"... Sometimes you have to ask, is the Sako big brother really worth the extra money when the "ecconomy" version shoots this good Black square is 1 inch in size.

bullet boy Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I won't be surprised if it's the most popular CF rifle to buy these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
