Anyone here own one of these ?
Whatever brand/model,,,,,,, I'd be interested in your thoughts and feelings (good or bad) about the one you've got.

No, but my mate had a demo .223 last week and returned it the next day. Still waiting for a replacement.

Yep, I have a Tikka T3x CTR in .308 PB—solid rifle, great accuracy, and smooth action.

What is .308PB? I assumed he was talking about the Celik Arms Chimera PB308 rifle.

Push Button job I guess.

Yes, the PB223 and PB308 are a push button on the left side of the forend under your thumb. You can run them extraordinarily fast with a little bit of practice.

Theres that french one too with the thumb lever on the side. Push button lever.

Thanks for that Mate, another possible (maybe here in Aus ?). I haven't / hadn't even thought of Tikka making PB's.
After owning a very late Friday afternoon made Tikka,,,, I swore I'd never touch another one.
Maybe,,,,,,,, just maybe,,,,,, I may be forced to have second thoughts.

I just did a quick gander,,,,, and cant find anything under Tikka 308 push button in the Tikka choices lists.

Watching with interest. Hopefully one not made in Turkanistan.

You're probably referring to the Verney-Carron Speedline rifles.
Great piece of kit.
