T3 Sporter 6.5x55

you can find them they're just less abundant than more popular calibers. If you can't find one I believe eurooptic has one you would just have to get it shipped over the border.
 
Good friend bought the T3 varmint model in 6.5 by 55 watched him shoot his first shots out of brand new rifle, no fouling shots he just cleaned gun with Butches Bore shine and patched it out dry. He had loaded some new brass using 140gr Sierra Match Kings CCI BR primers and IMR 4064 40 some grains? he had seated bullets just kissing lands.
he bore sighted and fired first shot it was 4" left and about 1.5" high at 100y he fired 2 more shots they measured .430" he adjusted scope to center and came up 3moa and fired at 300y 3 shots measured .755" how can you not like the T3s
 
I have a Tikka Master Sporter M695 in the wood three position stock that is 6.5 x 55. It is easily the most accurate factory rifle I've ever seen. A wonderful trigger too. This cartridge is really under rated esp for long range work.

Unfortunately I may be putting it up for sale to finance a major restricted purchase:(
 
I have a T3 Sporter in 6.5 swede with a threaded muzzle to boot. Had to grab it quick when I saw it. Not many in canada at all. I've still got it new in box, wondering if I should even shoot it!

Has anyone seen a T3 sporter in 6.5x55 in Canada? I've noticed all the ones i see are chambered in 308win or 223rem.

This is my main (bolt action) deer rifle. VERY nice shootin' iron, accurate, light to carry, incredibly smooth action. You don't see all that many of them, but for sure there are some around. (And no, mine is not for sale!)
