Pentak Scope

---

If you mean Pentax, ive had Pentax Lightseeker scopes on all my rifles since,, hell, i cant remember when i got my first one,,,, long time ago..

taken them all over the country, and into 35 degree below 0, snow and ice in Saskatchewan.. favorite is LightSeeker II, 4-16, 50...

I just bought a Tikka T3 (270 WSM) last spring with a Monarch 3-12 42.

Love the rifle, shoots great and seems to be durable so far.

I shoot a Tikka T3 in .300 WSM and love it. IMO you can't buy a better gun for the money. If you are sensitive to recoil then stay away from magnum calibers though. Mine is extremely light and has a significant recoil.

Tikka rifle....top notch. Should make you very happy.
Pentax scopes....depends on which one you get, what your expectations are and how much $$ you expect to spend. Like all the other scope manufacturers, Pentax sells a number of different product lines; level of quality correlates directly w/ the price. Do some online research re: the specific model/product line you're considering so you'll be happy w/ what you get.

I've never shot a tikka that threw bigger than one inch groups. They are great rifles. They blow everything in their price range out the water.

I have a t3 .270 with ziess conquest scope. Deadly combination. $ for $
Can't be a tikka. Just my opinion

Anybody got the "super light"? Looking at the stainless 270 with a swarovski z3

I have the 7 mm mag in the stainless super lite. It's a left handed model and I love it. It's very lite and sighting it in will leave some nasty shoulder bruises bc it kicks like a mule but it is super acurate around 150 yrds out the box. I have read where some people have filled the stock with packing peanuts to cut down recoil but I've never tried it.
