I'm a rabid Tikka fan. Here's my go to hunter: a Battue in .308
I've done a few mods: reduced stock by 1/2", stippled grip areas and ground to fit a Pachmayer pad. Added bottom metal, metal shroud and oversized handle. Scope sits in QRW rings on an EGW rail I nipped to fit receiver.

Long live Tikkas !
here are mine:
The scope is a little high but I like the rifle !
Few reasons.Not that I shoot a lot non stop but it helps with mirage in a hot days , takes some heat of the barrel,
prevents scratches and I just like it
Thanks! Yes it looks a bit high but it is comfortable for me I don't even raise check rest.

Although I'm selling this gun as I have no use for a 300 win mag anymore, this is the most gorgeous tikka I have ever seen. Left hand m65 deluxe. Back when tikka made an incredible work of art!

Yes it is. It's probably the nicest finished Tikka that I've owned. The boss must have been walking the factory floor that day. The bluing and wood are excellent. The wood looks even better than in the photos. I gave the stock a once-over with Schaftol German oil as it was a bit dry. I think this thing was in their inventory for quite some time.
I need to buy some more 30-06 ammo. I know the Tikka's love the 150 grain bullets.
(ps... to those that don't know... the receiver is not investment cast
)

Does anyone know where I can get a left handed stock (wood/plastic) for the T3?
Place a WTB ad in the EE ( Equipment Exchange ) is you best bet.

I like that ..... except for the rear sight assembly. That part is ugly to me. Otherwise a fantastic looking rifle !
Ugly looking but they're some of the best iron sights I've ever used. They make it very easy to get a clear sight picture.

That is one of the best iron sighting systems I've used on a modern rifle. There's beauty in practicality.
My Battue has a QD mount in order that I can access the sights for close-in shooting.
