I have owned a Mauser 93 great rifle. Currently own a Tikka T3. One of the best rifles I own, compares very well with my Sako in .260 but about 3 lbs lighter.

Mine is stock except for a water dip camo package, wears a decent scope and I have shot it to 700 yards And rang the gong. Mine likes nearly any 140gr. bullet Woodleigh, Bergers and Hornady eldx, all work great. There are two styles of brass for the cartridge, small primer flash hole or regular size so if your reloading be sure to check. Not fuzzy on primers and I use IMR powders for the most part.

Is and always will be my cartridge of choice. I have shot the cartridge for years AND I love it. If I could justify another 6.5 rifle I would look really hard at the CZ as well.
