This was the first rounds through this new gun. We were using Berger 168 gr Classic Hunter ammo. The scope was a Leupold Mark 5 in seekins rings. We zeroed the gun at 100 yards and set the zero stop. Then we went to 521 yards where we were getting impacts on steel pretty quick. At the end of the range time we ran the plate rack at 474 yards. The targets go in decending order 8", 6", 4", 3". Overall we are very happy with the setup and would highly recommend it. #tikka #tikkawideland #leupold #longrangeshooting

I'm 71 yrs old and my dad passed when I was 16 and I missed out on what you guys have is such a wonderful fun together. I still cherish those few years we had together. Keep up those great videos.
Thank you and sorry for your loss
Dang that old boy can shoot !!
Great video Cody ! Would like to see more with Tikka !
Its hunting season right now. The places we shoot we also hunt but after season we will throw some more stuff together. Thanks for comment.
You would be hard pressed to find a rifle in that price range that performs that good. Great shooting.!
Man...Great shooting. That barrel had to be hot, and it was still hitting!! Loved hearing you guys carrying on with each other. My Father-in-law and I do the same thing. We open every season together and it's always a barrel of laughs. I'll get all the ribbing for buying this Tikka...lol...
Man yea. We always carrying on.
I got the 7mm verison of this and love it. Bit of a jolt on the bench but standing freehand its a very nice shooter
I would upgrade the muzzle brake or get a suppressor. That would help tame the recoil better.
Nice shooting, great team. That should have been a successful season.
He passed on some deer. He says hes not as mad at them anymore.
BOUGHT ONE IN 300 WIN MAG. IT WOULDN'T EXSTRACT UNFIRED HORNADY AMMO. THEY SENT A 2ND NEW RIFLE AND IT WOULDN'T EXTRACT UNFIRE SHELL AS WELL. NOT TOO IMPRESSED I'M SORRY TO SAY. TIKKA NEEDS TO GO BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD!!!
Nice. Like the relaxed style of your films and the little trick for adjusting the reticle in your first film about the Tikka.
I really appreciate it. I enjoy playing with the filming. If I could get over the feeling like I need to talk clearly(proper) and be myself it would be a little easier. Alot of work goes into lugging cameras around and editing. That comment makes it worth it. Only reason I do itis because I cant find enough of it on the tube. If I feel that way im sure there are others that feel the same way. Thanks for watching
@@outdoorsandmoreland343 I know what you mean😉 I have been there too. I do films in German and started exactly with the same motivation. In Germany you only find very little good stuff on firearms. Keep it going!
Very nice!!! Really enjoyed watching
Love this rifle. Have you found any solid copper ammo that this rifle likes? Could you list the brand and weights if so?
Great shootin' !! :)
BIG LIKE!
That’s what I call real quality time ! great video. Did you hunt with it ? If yes would be great to know a little bit about your experience. Thank you to share that with us.
We always have a big time. He has not but should be in the next week or so. Ill keep yall posted.
Just picked one up in 7mm rem mag, havent shot it yet hope it groups like this one, great shootng
I'm sure it will. Tikka rifles are top notch.
Just bought one in 300wm, picking it up Monday
Very keen to hear how it shoots as now leaning towards it.
how bad is recoil? debating 300 win or 308 and dunno which to get
@@hannibalthe1st565 I wouldn’t let recoil be the thing that dictates the choice. Almost anything else is a better metric for the choice. Bullet cost, availability, barrel life, distance of range you have access to etc
Tikka always the best
Great clip,
Very interested to see your review on the Tikka T3X lite Veil Alpine. Also keen to have your input for big game more
So a do it all rifle caliber, on the fence between the .308, 7mm magnum and the .300 win mag
Thanks for the comment and the view.
What are you calling big game? Whitetail, elk, moose, mule deer?
How far are you going to be shooting it?
Are you dialing your elevation and wind or doing the top of back at 300 yards?
@@outdoorsandmoreland343 thanks mate, ye correct and bears if and when. Leaning towards the 7mm magnum due to previously having owned both .308 and the .300
Win mag
@@grantdavies4282 I do not know much about bears. I would assume if you are close to them then any of the above would be great. I generally like different calibers for each gun due to reloading. I dont want to be swapping dies back and fourth. If I was shooting factory ammo then I would want same caliber and find ammo that both guns liked. That way i could stock up on ammo. Also what ammo is available in your area plays a big part. Obviously if your are shooting longer distances I would go 300 win mag or 7mm mag. If not 308 should work fine. That being said I have no clue about bears or how hard it is to kill them. Thats my opinion and thought process for buying guns.
@@outdoorsandmoreland343 makes complete sense. Thank you so much for your honesty and willingness to advise. My thought set is that the toss up would be between the 7mm and the .300 win mag
Hey guys, great shooting! Glad you have your dad to do it with, that’s definitely quality time! I’m trying the same setup but with a viper pst 6-24 x 50. Would those seekins low rings you used work with a 50mm? I think the mark 5 was a 45mm if I remember correctly.
The mark 5 is a 44mm objective. I have not measured it but it think it would clear but might be close. Call vortex and tell tgem what you are doing and they should be able to tell you what will clear. We have alot of fun carrying on with each other. Thanks for comment.
Did you do a barrel break in before your sight in and accuracy testing?
Just noticed you did not
No I use to. But after talking to and hearing some of the best gunsmiths say just shoot it. I gave up on the tedious process. I do clean it first few times i bring it home. On a new gun I generally foul the barrel until I start to see consistency in groups and mv. Then sight in and check accuracy.
@@outdoorsandmoreland343
I just got the exact same rifle and am in process of barrel break in. I think I will stop. Looks like a waste of time. Nice shooting by the way.
@@Notreallyme377 I'd just shoot it and clean it first few times when I get home. Thanks for the comment.
I have had many and currently have 9 Tikkas. Clean from the factory, clean after the first 5, then after 10, again after 20. After that it will shoot rocks into a small group of you can feed them. LOL
Can I put red army steel case ammo in this gun? Will it harm it? (308 t3x
I have not shot steel cases ammo through a bolt gun and the logical answer I should give is ask the manufacturer. That being said looking at it logically only thing different would be the case and it should be fine. Normally steel cased ammo is loaded pretty cheap so accuracy will prolly not be great.
Just got a t3x lite in 6.5 prc, do you think the mark5 in 3.5-18 is overkill for that or should I go with a vx6 series 3-18? Stuck between what scope to put on it hunting deer out here in the west
I personally like the mark 5 better. If I’m not mistaken the vx6 is sfp and I like ffp scopes.
Do you know if the barrel and receiver are stainless steel under the cerakote?
I do not know if it is or not. That would be a manufacturer question.
Even with that muzzle brake still looks like it kicks pretty good for a 308? Did you consider the 6.5 CM? Did you shoot it more than a few times in a row? Read some forums about the shots opening up kind of quick due to the barrel heating.
It the pepper brake I believe is what its called. It is the one that has holes drilled all the way around. If we start shooting it alot I will talk him into a suppressor or better MB. It is tolerable but not something I personally would want to put 100 rounds a day through. I mentioned the 6.5 creedmoor which I am a fan of. I have ran alot of rounds through a creedmoor and already have dies and loads for it but he wanted the 308. It does shoot very well and he is very happy with it. We shot the barrel pretty hot at distance and it was still shooting pretty consistent but were not shooting groups. I didnt notice any flyers but we were not running 10 shot 90 second strings.
@@outdoorsandmoreland343 I noticed more and more companies are putting brakes on everything including 6.5 CM
@@311hitwall I am a big suppressor fan but the mirage and length henders my match rifles. I run brakes on match rifles and suppressors on hunting rifles that are threaded. These are 20 lbs 6mms and they have zero recoil with brake. Took a while to get use to brake but doesnt bother me now. There is a major difference in recoil reduction from a good brake and a cheap brake.
@@outdoorsandmoreland343 So since you have experience with this Tikka would you get a different brake for it? Isn't it fairly difficult and lengthy to get a suppressor? Do you have any other rifle brands you recommend for hunting? I have looked at Bergara and Weatherby along with Tikka and Browning. I have seen quite a bit of bad info on Bergara and Browning. Springfield is coming out with a bolt-action rifle, but seems like their quality/design have been questionable, too.
@@311hitwall if I were going to shoot it with brake. I would buy an apa. The suppressor thing depends on if you want to buy suppressor which is a form 4 or do a form 1 and build one( buy parts and put together). I believe most ppl are efile form 1 and getting tax stamp in 30 day or so. I believe the form 4 is around a year but haven't done one in few years. There is a video of a guy that show and tells you step by step what to do.
How bout them bulldogs??????!!!!!!!
