Rem 700 vs Tikka
« on: April 17, 2005, 08:42:09 AM »
additionally,   what should I expect to pay for a Tikka T-3 Hunter in wood and blued??   No WSM for me , just a good ole .270.....I am hearing 650.00, or around there.   Anyone know of better pricing anywhere?  I am not wanting to go synthetic on this gun.........Thanks

$539.00 on Gunbroker
http://gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=30758947

I've purchased a pistol off there and the transaction went smooth as butter.  The guns are shipped FFL to FFL, and you can usaully get some good deals.  The sellers usaully charge 20-25.00 ($25 in this case) to ship the gun, and your FFL that is recieving charges a small fee as well.  But look at the big picture:  You buy the gun for 539 + 25 for shipping + 20 FFL transfer fee, total comes to 584.00 after everything.  Look, you just saved 66 bucks PLUS you pay no tax!!!!

Best of luck, hope I was some help  :D

I have this same gun I paid $549 last fall at a gander mt. Now I see them for $629. This is the 3rd t-3 I've bought, you could say I like them.
