    T3TIKKA ?

    This past weekend attending a RMEF Banquet I won a 270WSM. Prior to the drawing, I handled the weapon and on the barrel it stated: made in Finland & Beretta USA.

    Today when I retrieved from the FFL, I saw the case for the 1st time: Sako and under that Made In Finland. On the label Beretta USA.

    So my question: please educate me on Sako, T3TIKKA and Beretta connection.

    Thanks

    Sako makes Tikka rifles. Beretta imports them to the US. I had a T3 Lite Stainless in 300 WSM and loved it. I wish i never sold that rifle. It had a pretty good recoil though.

    No prob. I dont know if they still do but they all used to have a 1 moa guarantee. I know for sure mine was capable of it with multiple different factory loads. it liked the 180gr Winchester Ballistic Silvertips the best.

    I have one in 300wsm awsome rifle, best factory rifle I have ever owned.

    Check out Tikka shooters.com for parts and upgrades. Also if you want to push the 270wsm is will kill at great distance. Look at Matrix bullets

    When I used to sell guns, the Beretta rep told me that Benetta owned Sako who in turn owned Tikka.

    WOW that realy looks great! I have seen that happen with SS from remington and savage. I think there are alot of misconseptions about it.

    What ammo and caliber are you shooting?
