New Rifle

I went to a local gun store and they had a Tikka T3 Tactical chambered in .308 for a good price so i couldnt turn it down. it will be a few months before I can pick it up. It doesnt have a scope or a bipod yet but here is a similar pic

Tikka makes a nice rifle. Let us know how it shoots after you get it.

On a rifle like that, I'd be looking a little higher than Burris for glass. Think Leupold, Nightforce, Nikon Tactical, at the very least, an SWFA Super Sniper.
