This is why The Wife won't give me an allowance.
I've been looking for a Stainless, fluted T3x in 6.5x55 for a very, very long time. I managed to scour one up a mere 10 hour round trip away for wa-Hey more than retail (not that there are any available retail in the US) It's never had a round even loaded in it, let alone been shot. I traded the scope back for more ammo, since he had so much, but came away with the bare rifle & 600 rounds of Hornady Custom 140gn BTHP.
All I can say is that it truly, honestly points like a 20ga side by side. I don't know whether it's the heavier stock, lighter barrel or just the weight distribution, but it's night & day better than my regular T3x. The balance is amazing. I cannot wait to get some glass on her! 😃😃😃

My gun fund has been clipped too, I was basically told that if I want to buy a rifle I can, but I have to sell one and get enough $$$ from the sale to pay for the new one.

Nice rifle!

Wait till your wife finds a deal on Christmas wrapping paper and goes to stuff it in that closet....and finds another dozen rifles stashed.

That's when she gave me the stink eye.

Great cartridge choice.

Nice. I wish they would fit the fluted actions in the grey laminate stocks.

My fund is hurting too. Just picked up a Weatherby Backcountry Ti 2.0 and a Kimber Montana in .223! Hope I can still afford the ammo!

Sexy. If I find one in 260 rem I will snatch it up as well.

I was offered one the other day in trade for my Kimber. I know it's here in TN & I can see if I can get some details, if you want.

EDIT: Sorry, it was a text through GOC & it looks like I deleted it. Sorry! 😬
