Hello all and happy to be here. So I have owned a Tikka CTR in .308 for a while but I just picked up a T3X Light Stainless in 6.5 CM and absolutely hate the stock bolt handle. I am looking at German Gun Stock's Handle but can't decide between Straight versus Swept back so here goes my first post and questions.

1. Straight or Swept?
2. Any Experience with this particular Bolt handle.
3. Any other recommendations?

Sterk. He is @cannoncrossfire on here.

There is also anarchy outdoors, glades Armory, and mountain tactical.

I haven't gotten one yet but having Sterk here is a bonus. He also does very pretty shrouds. I'm going to go with him when I do. Not sure style yet though.

Make sure you make your way to the pinned Tikka thread. Lots of opinions on all of them in there.
 
I have the Sterk swept back bolt knob on a T3x Tac and it's available in the left hand version. Very high quality and it feels better to me than the other styles. Almost like an AI.

I bought a rubber ball off of Amazon that slips over your existing bolt knob. It works suprisingly well. Doesn't look real cool but made bolt manipulation much easier.
