What are you getting? I’m getting a Tikka T3 varmint stainless in .243 and also a moderator. I disposed of my old rifle and Sound mod with a RFD and asked for space to buy new . It was basically like for like . I was a bit annoyed really because my moderator was a pes T10 and relatively new . But it’s the wrong thread for a varmint , which I believe is 14mm the old was 12mm . Edited July 18, 2019 by shovel leaner Quote Link to post

ianm 2,594 Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 I have two T3 supervarmints in .204 and i am really suited with them. The thread is 18mm on a varmint barrel and 14mm on the sporter. A mate of mine bought the supervarmint in .243 a couple of months ago and i shot it whilst setting his n/v scope up for him. It was shooting ragged one hole groups with factory winchester ammo. 1 Quote Link to post

It was shooting ragged one hole groups with factory winchester ammo. I wasn’t sure what the thread was . All I knew was that my old mod wouldn’t fit it . I’m getting it sent via the RFD service to a gunsmith friend. I’m just going to get the supplier to send it with one that suits it , I’m going for the Atec . Quote Link to post
