    Tikka Shooters Forum favicon icon 1 Bullseye

    In the near future I'm going to be acquiring a T3 Sporter 24″ in 6.5×55 Sweede.
    The rifle will predominantly be used for long range precision work out to about 1200m with a goal of keeping <1 moa.
    I plan on having the bolt and barrel fluted for the purpose of lighter weight while still retaining stiffness, cooling, and of course looks.
    Also, I will have it threaded for a break/suppressor.
    I've never sent anything off for gunsmithing work and I plan to use Longrifles, Inc out of Sturgis, SD.
    As of right now the plan is a Spuhr TRG mount with an undecided optic, but something in the flavor of 5-25×56 FFP h59 reticle and <$2k
    I'll most likely be using Redding Competition reloading dies and undecided on a good single stage press, currently my reloading setup consists of a Hornady AP which is set up for volume, I'd like to get a single stage for more precise loading.

    Are there any flaws to my plan as of yet?
    Anything you guys think I should do differently?
    Suggestions for a scope, gunsmith, or reloading components?
    I appreciate any comments/suggestions/criticism.

    does a spuhr trg mount fit a tikka rail?

    yep,of she goes first thing monday morning,i have also noted that the B&C stock does not have a flat bottom area like the OEM stock does and is not scalloped either for the tikka action tang,i find that very strange!
    you can clearly see the difference from the two pictures,i would definately not call this a straight drop in stock!

    Thank you for everyone's patience, especially YukonAl's, as we upgraded servers (again) and reformatted the website.  Tikka of the Month is BACK!!!

    Al Quast, or YukonAl as he is known here at TikkaShooters.com, has been an integral member of the forum since its inception.  Al has provided thousands of Tikka Shooters words of wisdom from his vast library of shooting knowledge.  He is an accomplished marksman, winning matches with factory Tikka T3s.  Currently, his favorite competitive stick is the last, new Tikka T3 Super Varmint sold in America – chambered in .223 Remington. 

    Early last year, Al told me he was working on a custom READ MORE
