Been wanting a 223 T3X for a while,cheaper to shoot and more fur friendly than my 22-250 which is also a Tikka.Got the compact this time,may thread it since my son won another can at a long range shoot a few months back.

What is the twist rate on that 223 Rem Tikka?

The one I bought quite a few years ago is a 1-8" twist so it handles the longer lead free bullets that I have to hunt with.
 
I have only heard good things about Tikka. I have thought about picking up one of their 20in tac 6.5CM for a nice hunting rifle.
 
This is my second one the newest 223 is shooting very well so far and would not part with my 22-250.Both of mine seem to shoot best at about 1 1/2 grains under max powder charge,I am using Varget in both.
