    Hi,
    Thanks! thats not the rifle itself just the stock, I'll post the rifle pics in a few weeks. PSE stocks come in at about 500Euros in a range of colours, real quality stuff.
    cheers

    Thanks Todd, when I get the gun I guess I should do the same, may as well start off doing it right!
    must start hand loading too, 30-06 isn't a hugely common calibre over here in the UK, .308 much more popular it seems, so if I start to hand load I should be able to open up the full potential of the Tikka – though from what Ive read and heard, the T3 is pretty accurate “out of the box”.
    Have fun and good luck with the pistol match, thats sadly a pleasure we are denied this side of the pond (unless its black powder)
    cheers

    Hi Todd
    Plan to use the rifle for some stalking and a bit of target shooting, I mainly use my .243 for stalking, its got a 19″ lightweight barrel, and a pes over barrel moderator and gets hopelessly hot after 3 shots so no good on the range, though great on the Roe and foxes. so thought I'd go for a heavier profile in 30-06. I will look at changing out the stock I think, but we'll see. How are you finding yours? Do you find the stock comfortable/stable etc?
    cheers
