Scully Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Whichever was in better condition. If both the same then the Sako. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Burpster Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Kinda depends on models really. Both will shoot equally well. The 85 was a Marmite stock and personally I hated it as I owned 2 75s at the time and the Ambi style stock felt horrid IMO. T3 is a great rifle base and action, although not a fan of the mags and hence there are some very good aftermarket ones and I have an Atlasworx BM in mine and AI mags. I have a T3 sporter at the mo as the TRG isn’t made in 6.5x55. That being said knowing what I know now I may have probably bought a 2ndhand shot out TRG and had it rebarreled..... so Guess I am saying that my preference would be the Sako but the Tikka may well be a better rifle for you.

barbel Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 got a t3 liite s/s .308 shoots very accurately, does what it says on the tin,not exotic but trust it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Sako is simply an expensive Tikka, or Tikka is simply a cheaper Sako… I know there is more to it than that. If they both fit you, they are both to your liking and both in similar condition get the Sako. Otherwise just get the one in best condition (barrel mainly), neither will generally shoot any better than the other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisheruk Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I have both. Both are excellent. The Sako is a little more refined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
