Real clean looking lines on that rifle, and a very beautiful stock. I likey.
I got a new Tikka T3x Forest in 6.5x55. Pretty piece of wood. Haven't put any oil or anything on this.

Yep it’s the original box
Lol good question . According to google they were invented in 1968
I acquired this new un-fired vintage Tikka M55 in .243.
I believe it was manufactured somewhere between 1975 & 1979.
Interesting rifle. Made when Tikka was independent of Sako. No plastic anywhere...
Great stock on that one! and you even have the same couch as me (atlas). You appear to have great taste sir.
That looks like it'd come up nicely. Some light oil (not a dark tint) and a smoother finish and im sure itd come out excellent.
This was a diamond in the rough. It’d been on display at the last few shows on the rack (shot / sika), looking pretty plain unless the light caught it right. (don’t cherry pick guns to display). No...

Na haven't shot it yet. Hopefully ill get a chance to this Friday or weekend.

Marty Henry You are right, the other side is just like a stained brown fence paling :thumbsup:
Na, The other side is similarly as pretty. That's all the excuse I need to post more photos. :)

I hope you dont mind, but here are some more photos of the sako .22
With such a nice piece of wood and a factory finish being what it is, I decided to refine it a little bit.
I applied a few coats...
Early Christmas present to myself. Sako Finnfire II .22lr with Burris Droptine22 3-9x40 scope.
Hows that for a sweet piece of wood? :thumbsup:

Was not going to scope it, not right away anyway. If I do it will probably end up with a 1-4 Steiner or similar low powered scope.
I got this. Sako Bavarian in .375H&H. Has a set trigger which is sweet.

Yep the Miroku is pretty much a "japanese browning". Much the same as the A-bolt with a few subtle differences. Different machining on the bolt for example. Its said that they were allowed to make a...
This was my first centerfire rifle. (still have it)
Miroku M-bolt in .243. It has a leupold vx1 2-7 which I am quite fond of. Very well made gun and good scope for the money (plus its light weight)...
