Thanks Chappy
Cool - I figured (and hoped) that.
I bought the take off T3 composite stock today so at least I have it in my hands. The actual T3 Walnut Hunter in 30-06 I have coming won't arrive for a week or so. So if the barrel channel matches, I should now have a good all weather utility stock for it that should fit. The wood on those Tikkas can be awfully perty - like to preserve it.
