It is my second Tikka T3 and the only brand of rifle I will ever purchase. My first one was a .270 and this one happens to be a .300 Win Mag. This was the last one they had. It normally retails for $749 and some change. When the cashier rang it up we both found out it was on sale. I honestly think I ended up paying more for the scope. The guy said it was almost too good to be true but I was not going to sit there and argue with him. Anyway, with taxes the grand total was.....$487.09 Attached Files Last edited by Jacob__McCandles; 05/12/20 01:45 AM.
