Stavross 15,542 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 After using the wraith on the .243 I decided I didn’t want it on that rifle, I was going to go 22-250 but the distance the wraith works best would say it’s to much rifle for the scope, so I will eat my words, I put down for a .223, I’ve never had one and always said I wouldn’t have one so we’ll see how I get on with it once I’ve built up the courage to part with my cash hats off to firearms, 48 hour turn around on a variation 7 Quote Link to post

walshie 2,804 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Good choice. Good call on the Tikka. I have a left-handed Tikka T3 lite in 223. I don't have a T3X because I can't afford one and they didn't make them when I bought mine. Quote Link to post

My .243 is a t3x lite stainless and I don’t think I’d buy anything else now, I had a .243 tikka varmint barrel and it was like carrying an assault cannon i used to take people out with me just to make them carry the rifle 1 5 Quote Link to post
shovel leaner 7,650 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 You have probably made a good choice for your wraith . I like the .223 Tikka I’ve got . I would think about starting to load your own rounds for it . Because the stuff you buy can’t come close , you will be surprised how well it will you start shooting . I still have a hankering for a wildcat though , either a 204 ruger or a Tac 20 , have you thought about that ? Quote Link to post
