I guess they send the same manual with all T3x's if yours says 62in-lbs also
If I do end up running the anarchy handle I'm going to get it cerakoted black. I will see though after I compare it to the sterk and the glades armory handle.Got mine too. Just wondering if I want to go the same route with my other two Tikkas.
Is there any benefit to the swept back or is it just for looks?
Its really just personal preference. I like where the swept handle places the knob more over my knuckles then over my finger tips. I got turned onto them after using a friend of mines Accuracy International which also has a swept ball handle, so after that I had to have one.
I use my thumb on the shelf as a pivot point and use a knife hand to lift up the bolt. Then use my thumb too push the bolt home and close it. I will try to get a video of it tonight. I have noticed a difference in the bolt throw, I don't have to run it as hard now.So, do you lift up just by pushing your hand up or do you grab it with your palm? Does it make the lift off feel lighter?

know this is purely cosmetic, but will someone please make a halfway decent looking bolt shroud for the T3? Take a look at the Sako TRG, Sako 75/85, or even the A7. Thats the only part of the Tikka that I think gives it a "cheap" look.
Ideas:
Thanks, I'm aware of what's out there and aware of what's on my Tikka's. I'd like to see a knurled shroud similar to what's on other Sako rifles. It isn't as simple as having a smith checker and refinish the metal as the factory shroud is rounded on all sides. Just my personal preference.
Should be a pretty simple task for someone with the equipment, just throwing this out there in case anyone of them are watching.
Hey Lash. Very cool.
Check under your bolt handle and see if there is a number inscribed in gold. I'm #179, another guy with the burnt Bronze is #32x something.
Pretty cool oil that they seemed to have numbered these limited edition TSR's.
They are watching... I currently offer an angular titanium shroud (Sterk), and something new is also on the way.

I have a EGW base and looking for 30mm rings. What height do I need to ensure a 44 mm objective scope clears the barrel? I'm looking at Leupold PRW and the Mark 4 rings. I don't want to buy a bunch of things and have to return them.
I had Badger low rings on my CTR with the EGW 20 MOA rail and a Bushnell LRHS 4.5-18 x 44 and it cleared even with the Vortex covers on it.
What do you guys think of TPS TSR or Seekins precsion (both aluminum)? They will be mated to a EGW 0 MOA rail with a 44 mm scope.
I haven't had any issues with either but I believe the Seekins are nicer overall. Thats my go-to ring choice, I haven't found anything better.
Anyone know how the glades armory swept handle compares to the Sterk swept handle.
Anyone use CDI bottom metal with their tikka? I have a stock I'm looking at but its already inletted for CDI and I am seeing that aics pattern mags have issues feeding and MDT mags are recommended. I have a bunch of aics mags already... Do I need to get mdt mags now or is this an easy fix?

Nothing wrong with the AI mags in mine using CDI bottom metal. They feed just as slick as any other rifle.
