Which bore guide for Tikka T3 Sporter.
I've never used bore guides but am trying to improve my cleaning method. I have some nice rods now but need a bore guide that works well for a Tikka T3 sporter. I see a lot of people like the Possum Hollow guides but don't know which one fits properly,

I recently ordered and recieved a couple boretech bore guides. They are a big step up in quality from the Tipton universal bore guide I was using. I haven't tried them yet in my Sporters, but I don't expect any problems. This type of bore guide will not prevent leakage back into the action like one with an O-ring fitted to the chamber and is not as precise in centering the rod in the bore.
unfortunately the smaller one (.17-.25 cal) doesn't fit through the action of my 17wsm rimfire. Rimfires are a bit of a special case since the ejector often protrudes into the bolt area. As a side note, some guys use an appropriately sized pen barrel as a bore guide for these small calibers. -

I have a Possum Hollow for my .223 and it works very well.

I use a tipton in my 223 and 35 whelen and it works like its supposed to. No sense in spending tons of money for an expensive one.

If you want the best – try Mike Lucas. Just search Google for “Lucas bore guide”.
Email orders only.
I have his rod and bore guide for my Master Sporter – both are the best I ever had.
