aister Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Just got back from picking up my new tikka T3 lite in 6.5x55. Fingers crossed it will be a nice weekend for me to run in the barrel and get it zeroed. Got it for a good price too, £700 and 60 winchester 140gr SP thrown in . Just need to make up my mind on which mod to put on it . Any suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I use T8's on my Tikka T3 Lite & Sako 75. They are excellent mod's, and only slightly heavier than other's. If looked after, they'll last you years, as mine have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesbach Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Treated my t3 to an A-Tec.. He'll of a lot lighter than the T8, all depends what type of shooting you're doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birx Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 As you've gone for the lite, it seems a bit of a shame to put something heavy on it like a T8 etc. How about a Hardy Gen iii or Gen iv? You won't even notice it's on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aister Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thanks for the advise guys. I have been having a look at the gen iv mod on the riflecraft web page and thinking that might be the one to go for. It doesn't add much length and is pretty light. Any other pros and cons for this mod. The rifle wont be used a lot, it will be a bit like my 30-06, after the initial excitement it will only get a lucky 40-50 rounds through it a year.

wildfowler.250 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 I have a North Star and although its a good solid mod, it's quite heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
