    My Tikka T3 Varmint.
    Pig to carry anyway with the heavy barrel and centre of gravity where the big stick out mag was.
    Wasn't reloading back then, and every type of factory ammo I tried was at best 2 inches at 100m.
    Then I put on a Loopie scope with front adjustable objective dial, which was too low in the Opticlocks and touched the barrel.
    So had to go and get some horrible Warne adjustable windage rings or some cr*p to mount the scope. Hated the new rings with passion.
    Sold if off for $150 less than I paid, so wasn't too much of loss.
    New owner got Alan Newham to develop hand loads for it and its apparently a tack driver now.
