Does anyone have any information on a Tikka M55? There is one for sale locally but info is scarce.

Cheers

The M55's are of Excellent quality.I read an article that said the British used them in Ireland as counter Sniper rifles. The interesting thing was that they were chambered in 22-250.

I had a bone stock Tikka M55 in 308 that shot into a witnessed .196" 5 shoot group at 100 yds. Used it in Factory Hunter back in the late 80's and she and I took all the marbles in that class for about 3 yrs. This is the rifle that got me started down this long bumpy road of competitive shooting. We stepped up to full blown HBR and won a few too. Replaced her with a trued Rem 700 after a couple yrs in HBR and she sat in the safe for about 12 years before I sold her off to raise money to make another. Can of wish I still had her!
