Well, let me first say welcome to GBO!

Then, let me say......have you been living under a rock???  lol. :)

You will quickly learn that Tikkas are EXCELLENT rifles.  I have shot many, and all of them have been accurate, and are all very well made.  Fit and Finish is outstanding.

The bolt action is among the smoothest that you will ever cycle.

The trigger is among the finest you will ever pull.

Buy a Tikka and you will never look back!

I've got a T3 Lite chambered in 300WSM and it will cloverleaf four of my handloads at 100yds.  I think if I could hold a little steadier it would put them into a single hole.... well maybe.

I was this site that got me into looking at a Tikka.  I bought one in a T3 Lite chambered in 30/06.  Topped it with a Bushnell Elite 4200 and it is my second most accurate rifle only to my Sako 270.  For the money it is the best rife you can get. IMO.

I agree with the above posts as well.  I have the T3 Hunter in .30-06 and couldn't be happier. 
Merry Christmas,

The Tikka's come with rings.  Most 40mm scopes will work fine.
