Tikka T3 Varmint .308 - Rapid Fire 400 Yards

Shot today at Angeles Range for a bit, this is a clip with my Tikka T3 Varmint .308 Shooting sort of rapid fire at 400 yard steel; I think I missed the last one like a noob... It was raining and a thick fog was obscuring the 400 yard steel so target acquisition was relatively slow... Need to keep working on it.

lol, Annnnnnnnnd you didn't hit shit. Nice rig though, how do you like it, say compared to a Remington 700 sps???

@rednoseroxy Annnnnd maybe you didn't even watch the video..... My form is bad no doubt, this is an old video. It blows a 700 away out of the box. Needs no aftermarkets to shoot sub MOA out of the box, and the action/trigger are unmatched stock.

@aermotorstudio what kind of 100 yard MOA do you think this is capable of (including getting action bedded and etc.)? I'm stuck between getting this or springing for a custom build

[aermotorstudio]

@TownPiligan14 It's honestly capable of around .25 MOA but I can regularly shoot .5 MOA – The gun is so precise it's really all about the shooter doing their job. The gun is better than me any day of the week. Do you mean an M1A? Don't get that if you're looking for MOA accuracy, that's not what they are built for. A custom build will set you back A LOT more than this cost me and the Tikka still might out shoot it.

[TownPiligan14]

@aermotorstudio not an m1a so much as like a remington 700 action and then build a rifle around that, but that would cost all up around 1500. It would for sure though be a near .25moa gun which is why I was asking what you think this one can do. And at it's price if it honestly can reach .25 or even sub .50 then I could use the extra cash saved for nicer glass

[aermotorstudio]

@TownPiligan14 This gun stock will run circles around a built 700 and for a fraction of the cost imo. The only weak point is the stock itself: I added a 1" plastic spacer + a recoil pad to help the length of pull for me. A few companies make aftermarket stocks these days though so you could always look into that, but I honestly have no problems with it now.

I used Rustoleum Bed Liner spray on the whole thing which gives it an amazingly nice grip now and I also painted it. Lemme find a pic.

@aermotorstudio yeah had a look at one yestiday and the bolt action of them are sooo bloody smooth! i couldn't believe it! well im in Australia and they retail for around 1600 bucks here -.- How much are they in the US? if your located there?

[xXCHICAGO71Xx]

nothing quite sounds like a .308 love it!

[jitzero]

@chevy2990 i have 1 in .223 it shoots under moa all day if you can be botherd to put in the accuracy. very nice action and crisp trigger

@gunnymorello, ditch the 20" barrel if you want distance, 0-250 - 350 yards with a 20" barrel is fine i'm sure you can hit 3 - 5 group shots sub MOA. Any longer distance and the projectile just looses momentum. Longer barrel better distance. and if you sight it over that distance and hit the target I can assure you you will never hit the same spot. your groups will be all over the place, a tactile style 20" barrel is effective only on the shorter distance. Hope this helps. LONGER FOR LONGER!!!!

Excellent rifle. I have one in .270. Question: where did you pick up the 5 round clip?
