Dont know how you guys can use warne mounts. I hate them with a passion.

1. They are a real shite to install, trying to hold the scope in and the recoil tang while screwing them to the reciever.
2. You cant hone them to make sure they are true.
3. Solidly made though.


I would use Leupold PRW's if good stuff is required or sportmatch mounts if a cheaper one is required.

order the picatiny rail that tikka make for the t3 or any flat based rail made of steel and get quality rings to suit that. i went with leupold m4 steel rings.

Mate I run nearly all warne because
1.I find them easy to install.I have nearly all picatinny rails nowadays.
2.They have never needed honeing on any that I have bought(unlike all the leupold's I have bought.)
3.Yes they are solid.
Funny how different ones suit different people.

I use standard Leupold rings and Leupold white tail bases. For under $100 you won't find better imo. Very popular and very strong. If your cashed up buy Optilok by Sako...

Anyone know anything about DNZ Game Reaper Scope Mounts for a Tikka T3

http://www.dnzproducts.com/index.php?ma ... Path=66_40

They seem to look OK and being one piece base and bottom ring set they should be stable?
Price looks good.
