Thread: Tikka 3 lite 270

Tikka rifles are cheap, but seldom a dud straight out of the blocks.

I could well be jumping the gun, just wanted to hear what some experienced shooters thought about it.
Would a suppressor help with recoil too?
I was just a little shocked at the 3.7moa at 200m, and that wasn't just one bad shot that let the group down, all 4 shots were not close.
