Let's see your tikka's

Did they make the laminate superlite in 270, and 6.5X55?

I don't think there is such a thing as a laminate super lite, or lite. Those are the plastic stocks....

Not that I know of.

I dropped the Superlite into the OE lammy stock and its 'Stella'

5lb 12oz stock vs 6lb 4oz in the Lammy stock. Without glass / mount.

They never made a stainless fluted in the laminate? That's too bad.

 

[Gunneegoogoo]

Don't think so, but I could be wrong....

The only one av ever seen is sitting in my basement right now.

Not for Canada, and the Finnish literature doesn't mention a laminate super lite. Would be a nice option.

 

[Gunneegoogoo]

Other than for looks wouldn't it kinda be counter-intuitive to have a lite/super lite barrel on a heavy stock?? Unless you want it for cosmetics, and then fair enough.

I wouldn't keep it the way it came. I like the flutes, and the laminates bring the most money when parted out. That's why I wondered.

 

[Ghost~Rider]

Well. I launched it into the Lammy stock for a few reasons.

1) It's so light out of the box that my heart beat was playing with the POI. (Recoil heavy as well)

2) I prefer wood vs Plastic.

3) It looks Succumb.



22" barrel vs the 24" Magnum caliber's.

Shame Sako didn't offer this off the shelf. It's hardly a Complete factory Re-Tool is it.

Am pretty crap at taking photos.

That looks great ghost rider! I am not a stainless-in-natural-colour fan, but that laminate stock really compliments the stainless silver, with just the right amount of contrast with the black rings, shroud, and scope caps/dials. Nice work.

When it comes to differences in mere ounces, I personally don't notice it. In fact, on the larger calibres, I prefer a bit more weight to absorb the recoil.

 

[Gunneegoogoo]

Does look very nice

 

[Ghost~Rider]

Thanks fella's.

You should see it in the flesh. My photography skills are crappy at best. I will snap another pic when I take it out on a hunt.

A Butler Creek objective Cap should finish it off nicely.

I just have a couple of pics of mine, from the 2013 hunting season. Less than a mile from the Montana border, pretty open country.

wow, nice rifle, but you need a scope leveling kit!

Where are you guys getting the DNZ Game Reaper mounts?
I'm wondering if I can use the 1" lows with a 40mm objective scope on a Tikka T3 superlight 30-06?

My DNZ came with the second hand purchase of the rifle. But it is a low mount with a 42mm obj.

Clears fine (About 4 posts up for pics) and I've seen them on Amazon actually for reasonable prices. Haven't looked elsewhere though.
