It just feels a lot more balanced to me.
Tikka laminated stock vs synthetic.
Tikka presently offers the t1x in two calibers 22 lr and 17 hmr with the former having a slightly higher twist rate than the latter.
I ve done lots of looking but have failed to find any info on laminated stocks.
Give your tikka t3 rifle an upgrade with a variety of stocks from tikka.
Most manufacturers don t accurately list their laminate rifle weights because of variations in wood density used in making a laminate stock.
The laminated tikkas are definitely heavier than the synthetic.
Other features include a detachable 10 round mag a stainless steel bolt and a modular synthetic stock.
For wet weather definitely go with a synthetic stock over a laminated.
The stock material has no bearing on whether a rifle shoots well.
I ve had both and in the rain the factory wintuff winchester 70 laminated stock swelled so much the recoil pad looked 2 sizes too small and the gap between the forend and barrel disappeared.
Very easy to install and looks great only negative was not from the pad purchased but the factory screws that secure the pad to the butt of the stock are not stainless and were corroded on a brand new tikka t3 had purchased from local sports shop for a significant discount over the new.
These stocks feature standard polymer design or different wood grain patterns and provide you with extras like sling swivels ergonomic grips and recoil pads.
The t3 hunter offers an extensive caliber selection for hunting and sport shooting purposes.
It is true however that a synthetic stock rifle is less likely to change its point of impact in extreme weather.
All of this happened in one full day of rain.
So really i m only looking about a difference of 3 4 s of a pound.
T3x laminated stainless is designed to withstand demanding weather conditions.
It is built with traditional principles and modern innovation providing you with a new level of accuracy reliability and enjoyment.
The t3x version is less rigid and is a little truer darker black.
Our helmick arms ultra light laminate stocks are actually lighter than the synthetic stock it comes.
I am looking to buy a new 300 and i am eyeing up the tikka t3.
If tikka s numbers are correct with the synthetic stock the rifle weighs 5 9 pounds and with the laminate stock it weighs 6 6.
The weight difference is not that significant mere lb in the magnum models.
I like the feel of the laminated stock a lot better than the synthetic stock.
These stocks are right handed and come in either a laminate lite or sporter style configuration.
Raw accuracy depends on barrel quality bedding quality and a host of other variables.
The tikka t3 hunter is designed for the shooter who wants a rifle with both top performance as well as a classic style and feel.
Direct replacement for tikka t3 pad.
