kingofcoues Report post Posted January 14, 2005 Anyone out there have a T3 in .270 wsm? I have looked at a lot of ballistics on it and it is simmilar to the .270 Weatherby. The rifle itself is sweet, but I was told that it only comes in a 22 in. and that a little short for my taste. So let me kow how it shoots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAM Report post Posted January 14, 2005 Treestandman just bought one a few months ago and I helped him get it sighted in. It's a nice gun and shoots very well. I was really impressed with the trigger, it's not nearly as stiff as many other new rifles. I think Scott Adams has one as well, and I'm pretty sure he's happy with it. I thought it came with a 24 inch barrel, but I'm not sure. I shoot the .270 weatherby and it's still a little faster than the WSM, but both are great coues rifles.

TREESTANDMAN Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I bought the Tikka t3 hunter in .270 wsm. I am very pleased w/ it's performance. It is also very light. The only thing I'm not real crazy about is the plastic manufactured magazine. I recommend it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sczoner Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I shoot a T3 in 270 win. Great rifle and the trigger is about the best for an out of box gun. The Stds have the 22" barrel the magnums have a 23" plus barrel Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatfootdoc Report post Posted January 17, 2005 I shoot a T 3 300 WSM and it comes with a 22 or a 24 inch barrel, the 270 does as well depending on which stock you choose, I think the synthetic is 22 and the walnut is 24. Good accurate rifles with awesome triggers out of the box. AG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azhuntnut Report post Posted January 27, 2005 Don't let the length of the barrel discourage you. I bought one of those H&R rifle ($219) last year to just throw in the truck with me. It came with a 20in. barrel calibered for 223. This little sucker shot so good I ordered a .243, .270, and 50 caliber black powder barrel for it. The .243 is dead on at 300 yards using factory ammo. The best part about it, is that the whole set-up weighs about 6lbs including scope. I now carry this rifle instead of my Browning A-bolt stainless stalker with a muzzle break. I have never had the chance to shoot a Tikka, but have heard nother but good remarks about them. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
