jay666d Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hmmmm... *Ponders whether Tikka do a T3 Super Varmint in 7.92x57 or even 7.62x54 R* http://www.tikka.fi/pdf/specs/SuperVarmint.pdf 30-06 Spring is probably as close as you'll get in a factory Super Varmint!

Roe Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 I have the exact same model in the safe now, albeit with a synt magazine. After Christmas they will also be available for Tikka in LA calibres. Haven't had time to mount a scope/ test it yet. First impression good 3850 grams without scope/ moderator. The more I look at this, the more I like it -and Black Rifle has them in UK link Anyone done one? What's the cheekweld like with a CTR and 3/4" spacer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roe Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Here is the MDT LSS again. Rifle inserted is a Tikka T3 Lite 308 Win. I quite liked the way the recoil changed. Rifle was 4,7 kgs as shown. Not soo keen on the all-metal foreend (damned cold) but I suspect a plastic insulator is easily machined/ fitted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IY6jZSlkWo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James8870 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 I received my LSS chassis in left hand for my .308 Remington 700. Custom Begarro 26" varmint barrel. I built up the chassis and tested it with home loaded lapua 167gn scenar ammo. Accurate is not the word.. More like awesome... 3 bullets in damn near 1 hole at 100yds.. The chassis has also taken away most of the recoil and it feels like a .243 to shoot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stacka Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 How adjustable is it? I'm thinking about putting one on my NV. A dedicate nv scope is so high up and in a funny position I need a good chassis or stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Disorder Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 How adjustable is it? I'm thinking about putting one on my NV. A dedicate nv scope is so high up and in a funny position I need a good chassis or stock If you couple the chassis with an adjustable buttstock like the PRS you get a lot of vertical movement (at a price). Alternatively use a Magpul CTR stock with a cheek riser. Most people use the 3/4" version, though if you want a higher mount there is an extra high version available too.

Major Disorder Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Black Rifle - do you have any idea of when the new MDT HS3 will be available in the UK for Tikka T3? Rumour has it that there will be a demo model available at the BSS, no fixed shipping date yet, but I am asking.... a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmer Fudd 1 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Can you buy the chassis in OD green or is it just black and flat dark earth Fudd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Disorder Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Can you buy the chassis in OD green or is it just black and flat dark earth Fudd There certainly are (or at least were) some options for OD, I'll check which actions are catered for. What I do know is that if you're a left hooker then black is the only option... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I do know is that if you're a left hooker then black is the only option...Good to know! I've narrowed it to black action and OD furniture or vica versa. I'll probably text you once I've decided so I can start building up some of this rifle then! Ticket went in today so with any luck I can get the remi out of your way ASAP!

Well that's no good, I'm going to have to buy the stock before you get a chance! Could you have look and see if it's still possible to get the LSS in OD green for us? Think that's what I'll go for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 If not, you can always Cerkote it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AckImp Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Finally got round to posting these up here. iPhone pics so not the best. A few changes since the original build and still a couple of bits and bobs to do, including fitting a picatinny rail so that I can use a more generic set of rings and free up the Optilocks for something else. It's likely the chassis will be Cerakoted soon too as the anodising, as stated elsewhere on here by Baldie I think, is indeed poor and has marked already from very light use. Bolt handle and knob are from Resolution Precision, as is the still to be fitted Pic rail. Muzzle Brake is from Bradley Arms (Bradders) and I must say the service from both John Carr and Mark Bradley were exemplary and I would happily recommend their components to anyone. Chassis and folder etc. came from Black Rifle and again, great service. Barrel is from Border and is as excellent as all the others I've seen recently. All work was by PJS Precision on this forum.

AckImp Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Cheers Bradders. Mash67, the folder is excellent. I wasn't sure about it when I saw pictures but after I got my hands on it I had to have it! Lockup is rock solid. Still unsure about the stock itself. Trying to keep it light(ish) but could do with it a bit higher in the cheek. Maybe a CTR as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
