Ask Wendyj...
I know she shoots Tikka's and she loves them!
I don't know if she has a 223 though.
I do know she shoots clover leaves with her T3 in 7mm-08.
I'm with Kilotanker. Would love a Tikka T3 Hunter...
Rebs, I have a boyds stock on my tikka which is free floated and it has cooling ports in the forend. I never shoot more that 10 shot groups. My groups stay under and inch or smaller.
