New toy

M595 Tikka in 243
End goal for this is a 22 243 in a mcmillan or senator.
Will just play with it as 243 for now then maybe AI it and further playing until iv worn it out and/or can afford the custom work(Dam wedding!)
VX1 is a stop gap measure for now.
Unfired by me so far.

Superb rifles, mine was in 22 250, traded it then bought it back it was that good.
You'll be very happy with it I'll bet.

There was a LH one in 308 on TM the other day and I almost convinced myself I needed it. They are a nice shooter (just a touch heavy).

I must admit i was surprised at its heft. Think the T3 must have a lighter contour to the barrel? Not a problem for what Il be doin with it

Not being a gun slut like a lot of you fellas I probably cant really comment on the T3 but they seem like a bloody good gun for the money.
If anyone had bid against me on it I would have just got a new T3 instead.
