New Tikka Owner
« on: November 14, 2007, 01:24:42 PM »
Just got a used but in good shape Tikka 3 lite.Havent shot it yet but the trigger is the best I have ever felt on a factory rifle.I had questions for you all ,but then I read most of the posts on here and got my answers. ;DThis is my first Tikka and its a blue/synthetic in .270.Now I guess I have to buy better mounts/rings ? Also a scope. ;)

Congrats! You have lots of good choices in rings, the Talley lightweight and Warne are at the top of most folks list. ;)

Well here is an update.I got the Warne mounts in med. hieght and put on a cheap Simmons 3-9x40 scope.Checked it with a bore sighter and lucky me it was centered and just a bit low.After the range session most groups were .450" [digital calibre]and some less than that. ;D None were over one inch.Not bad for a used rifle and cheap scope.The guy who traded it in got a shortmag of somekind,dont know what brand.Oh well maybe his loss ::)Anyways I'm very happy.
