Just got everything put together today.

Shown below is a Tikka T3 Lite stainless in 22-250. Leupold VX-II 3-9x40 is mounted with Talley lightweight ring/base combo. As you can see, I also put on butler creek flip ups, a bipod and a cartridge holder.

Can't wait to see how it performs this weekend, will post a range report on sunday, thanks for looking

We've got the same rifle in stock but in a varminter version. I had it out the other night to show acustomer. If it doesn't sell soon, it may become my coyote gun! Not to heavy to carry but good weight. Anybody use one?

Nice set up. I like the weight, very easy to carry, and the bi-pod/sling works for me too, but i have the .223 version.

Are you guys okay with the factory trigger pull? or did you drop it back, and if so what did you find?
 
Very nice rifle, you're well set up for coyotes!

Does your scope have the L.R. reticle? If not, you should try it. Having those long range dots feels like cheating.
 
Yep scope has the LR reticle, haven't shot it yet, so can't comment on it though, hopefully its everything people say about it.

The trigger came from the factory at 2 1/4 lbs, seems to be pretty good to me. No need to adjust.

Thanks for the comments.

Sold today. He came back. :( I might have to reorder for myself after I see how he makes out with it.
 
I just put this rig together and hope to get out after coyotes with it this year....found this NIB Sako 75 stainless/synthetic 22-250 at LeBarons, topped it with a Leupy VX-III 3.5-10X with an elevation turret in Leupold rings and some Butler Creek flip-ups.

it shot these groups with 55gr VMax's and WW760 first time at the range...so I think it'll work....especially the 5 shot .636" group at the top.......not bad for an out of the box rifle with the trigger screw twisted down to 2-1/2 lbs....and previous experience has shown me that a 22" 22-250 will still outrun a 26" 223.....:)
