Default Tikka T3 30-06/Zeiss 3x9-40/Dednutz mounts

Fired my new tikka last weekend and needless to say, I'm very pleased with rifle shooting cheapo 165 g core-lokts. Group A was shot while adjusting the scope to get on paper. I was also in the middle of cleaning between groups

Nice shooting, I am a big fan of the Tikka's.
great rifle out of the box and if the cheap stuff is shooting like that keep on shooting it.

Thanks guys. I own rifles that cost 5-10x what this one cost w/o the scope and I think they are the best bang for the buck for under 2K. To top it off, you can take it into the woods and beat on it without a worry

yup looks right . My new t3 in 30.06 shoots the cheap stuff that good to. Now try some accubonds and you'll see less hole in the same target.

Typical of what Tikkas can do but still some good shooting on your part. Good luck hunting.
