Tikka T3 Hunter 6.5x55 With Leupold VX-III 3.5-10x40 Scope

[matt85]

this is a near mint condition Tikka T3 hunter in 6.5x55 with a Leupold VX-III 3.5-10x40 mounted using Talley rings. this rifle maybe has 40-60 rounds threw it but otherwise is brand new.

I'm asking $800 for the complete package or $600 for the gun and $200 for the scope.

Any pictures of targets for accuracy?

shot the smallest group of my life with this gun on its first outing... measured 0.3" at 100 yards. ammunition was cheap as I was just doing a bit of break in, probably PPU. I didn't shoot the gun much and ive had it in my safe for a long time so ive got no targets laying around.

Tikka guarantees 1 MOA with there rifles and I can tell you that with the right load it will do much better then that.

Making room for something else Matt?

Guys this would make a fantastic deer or PG rifle. I already own more 6.5 x 55 (s) than I need, or I would jump on this. Extremely accurate and very mild recoil.

Understood! How long has that shipment taken!?

I paid for the order in 10/16 so we are at around 14 months. I made a unique regulation request which might explain the additional wait time. I wanted the gun regulated for Federal ammunition loaded with Woodleigh Hydro's. this is apparently not widely available in Europe.

If I hadn't recently bought my own DR.........damn fine reasonable offer for those who may be looking.

Just to add, I have a T3 that shoots right along side of most all my custom builds. Even with factory ammo, it is under MOA.

You're right, they are great shooting guns. I have one in 7mm Rem Mag and love it. Mine is the synthetic stock and I would love another in a wood stock like this one. Heck of a deal!

 

[matt85]

price reduction: rifle and scope are now $700.
