Yeah! Friday I'll be shooting a bunch of photos for the site and I'll post a link here.
I put my 223AI super light in it. Surprisingly it doesn't look out of place. Of course, the picture week be worth 1000 words

Our demo Berserks arrived yesterday… I can't wait to shoot them! Exceptional quality, fit and finish!
-
I'm blowing out a couple Bolthorns right now if you want one!

I would definitely do the recoil lug first. It's cheap and easy and has restored many Tikkas that were previously thought of as “shot out”
Then work your way down the rest of the list here. The great thing is that no gunsmithing is required which makes the T3 very affordable to upgrade.

Oscar and I spoke about the lefty demand. The molds cost almost $250,000 per inlet. He needs to recoup that investment first. Honestly, I'm concerned that he is diving into Howa, Remmington, and Savage too fast when that investment could be recouped faster with a lefty inlet.
Just my .02 from the outside looking in.
What do you guys think of the price? Honest opinions please!

$599.99
Once I get a confirmed ship date, I might do something special for the initial orders. ;D

Hi Eric,
We did modify these after getting feedback from the first run. I'm editing a video right now going over the changes.
Anyone who received the first run that is having issues will get the modified version. It should work as easily as it does in this video:

Will these be available at http://www.tikkaperformance.com?
We have the demos arriving the next week or two with 100 units for the T3 arriving the following month.
Here's a quick video I shot with Oscar at Shot Show:

As of yesterday, we were able to fill all backorders and now have positive stock in everything except 20 MOA Receiver Length Rails.
Additionally, I have 260 or so rails I'm anodizing this week.
You should definitely start seeing the numbers on the site go up.
The phone has been tough to get to because I'm making my final push on custom rifles and parts for hunting season.
Email is fastest. Vasb@grzc.gvxxnfubbgref.pbz
Or, I get alerts on this thread to my phone which I check more often than my computer throughout the day.
Hunting season is upon us!

Manners Composites and McMillan both do a great job with carbon fiber stocks.
Last I checked, Stocky's Stocks had a good inventory.

We used to sell those but the manufacturer's quality control went down hill. They also began manufacturing from inferior base metals.
Witt Machine makes an excellent clamp on brake for the Tikka.
Roedale Precision makes a similar clamp on that's in the picture and they have a great reputation as well.

I had this happen doing load development for my 270WSM. There is a point in which the densely packed powder cannot burn efficiently. If oxygen cannot readily get to the powder, you actually slow the burn.
In a longer barrel, there is time to equalize this issue. But in a 22″ barrel, the bullet is long gone before a stiff load of powder can burn.
Superformance is an odd duck for powder. It packs tightly with a medium-fast burn rate. Similar to 4831 but you can load it more dense.
My 30-06 shoots the 190 SMKs extremely well with Superformance.

As many of you know, the 80.5 is my favorite bullet for a 1:8 twist 223. For me, there was a substantial increase in velocity between these and the 80 grain VLDs.
The BR4s are the ticket for sure. The 400s have too soft of a cup. I pierced a couple 400s on hot days with this load.
These are some great results Dog Down!
Keep them coming!

Welcome Tom!
We're pretty nuts about Tikkas around here. There is a wealth of knowledge and a ton of great guys.
Enjoy the forum!

You do realize that everyone is going to jump you in a dark alley for getting a Tikka with a set trigger
🙂
Just kidding… or not…
