Well I did it...

All these posts on the swede, plus I miss mine so......My new 6.5x55 Swede. I wanted one I bought brass and dies and here she is. Tikka
T3. Best wood I have seen on a Tikka.

Looking forward to your shooting results with it!

 

[salmonchaser]

Why am I not surprised?

 

[DrMike]

Without a doubt, pretty wood and blued action/barrel is just classic. Lovely rifle, Fotis.

 

[RL338]

Really nice Fotis

 

[NYDAN]

That is a beautiful rifle. Congratulations on your acquisition.

Beautiful rifle. Congrats.

 

[FOTIS]

Thank you all. 143 ELDX this weekend or next pending on arrival. Powder remains to be chosen.

That is a great rifle, and I'm looking forward to hear how it shoots. The 6.5X55 is an ideal white tail cartridge, but it can do so much more.

 

[FOTIS]

I have high hopes.

I'm jealous Fotis. My Tikka looks like a 2x4 compared to yours. Very pretty. I do like the way it groups though

 

[FOTIS]

Usually they are tack drivers. Additionally the Swede is known for its accuracy. We will see.

 

[longrangehunter]

You’re not kidding that is some nice wood! It looks like it has some fiddleback in it?

 

[Shakeyjake]

Nice purchase!

Wow, what a great rifle! Beautiful and in a classic cartridge. I hope it shoots really well - Tikka's usually do - and you usually coax the very best accuracy out of your rifles.

I'd think deer, pronghorn and that sort of thing?
