    I have a friend who picked up a used T3 in .338 Win Mag.  He had  a muzzle brake and different recoil pad installed before he fired it.

    Looks like your's is a keeper!

    So far I've been trying bullets I have around from dabbling with a .223.  My most recent trial is with a Sierra 55 gr Blitzking.  The brass I use was some I had primed sometime in the past.  They have CCI BR-2 primers in Winchester brass.

    This was the first outing that I ended up with a group larger than 1 inch. 

    I need to settle in on one brand of brass, primer, and seating depth.  Although it seems at this time I'm just trying to find a combination that pulls the shots together.

    I've got some 52 gr HPBT “Matchking” Sierra bullets I can try.  Do you have a recommended OAL?

    The second load tried was with the Sierra 55 gr HPBT “GameKing” bullet on top of Hodgdon Varget Powder.

    While all these groups were under an inch it didn't seem like any of them were going to collapse.

    First load tried was with a Sierra 50 gr BlitzKing bullet on top of Hodgdon Varget powder.

    The two groups on the top are close to my target group size but the velocity will be a bit lower.

    From pictures the Ruger American looks very similar to the T3.  I haven't seen one in person yet.

    I just saw one in a local gun shop.  I think the guy told me it was used but I wouldn't have been able to tell that.  It looked really good.

    Tikka Shooters Forum favicon icon 66 Bullseyes

    What size torx driver is used on the action screws?

    I figured out that the action screws on my T3 are the torx T-25

    Welcome to the forum!  I'm a new Tikka owner.  Still in the process of breaking in a T3 Varmint in 22-250.

    Do you have a pet load for your 22-250?

    When you have some time, could you post a picture of your Tikka with the B&C stock on it?
