Here's a shot for the Tikka/ Sako fans for heritage sake:
Forty years of Finnish workmanship in the making:
That's a Sako M28-76 in 7.62x54R, a Tikka 595 in 223, and a Tikka T3 Sporter in 6.5x55, which I totally lucked out on finding, as it's got a 24" threaded barrel and set trigger- it was the only one the shop got in and was unlisted- I'd bet there are only a handful that made it into the country in the configuration, as the 24" threaded barrel isn't listed on any of the rifle spec sheets I've seen from Tikka.
The M28-76 slings 208 grain Amax's into much smaller groups than it should. The 223 is a proven performer. And I haven't put a single round thru the T3 yet, and with my upcoming schedule it'll likely be mid-summer till I do! The set trigger is awesome, and very neat to see on a Tikka.
