The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Hi all

To introduce myself

I am up in Aberdeenshire
I am mainly a full bore and gallery rifle shooter who does all of his own reloading
I used to do clay doo's as well but not so much now since I got into full bore
I'm a full member and RO of our local club and I'm a full member of the FCSA
I'm working towards becoming a RCO
I love the big calibre's
I have not got a 50 yet BUT I will have some day as long as santa is good to me

The apple of me eye, is my Tikka T3 in .308, absolutely love that rifle

Can't really think of anything else of interest so if you want to know anything else about me then please just ask

Hi and welcome.

Hello, welcome to FB

Pretty sure we have a few members up your way.

Welcome to the forum. Some of the earlier Tikka .308's are very bit as good if not better than the T3 and well worth a look at.

Thanks for the welcomes

Hi christel, the person that pointed me to the nagant thread is a member I think but I don't know his user name, will need to ask him

Hi ovenpaa, Yeah from what I have seen of older Tikka's some of them are very good too, I bit the bullet and bought the T3 last year BNIB, and straight from the box it was a great rifle, I will never part with, and if it came to a choice between the wife or the T3, well, it's the wife that would need a new home not the T3

hi-and welcome from newbie too!judging from your first post you are fast shooter and hard hitting one-"welcom in the club"

Hehehe, wife or rifle. Well I live with a shooter who already has a .308 Tikka M65A with a German S&B 12x56 on top. Superb rifle although she is talking about getting rid now.
