Tikka - Sportsmatch T084

[802flyfish]

Just picked up a T3X Ember Roughtech .300 WM and a Leupold VX5 3-15x44 scope. A little confused on what model I should be looking at. Will the T084 suffice?

​

 

[Schaaf]

Unless you’re gonna go rings/rail. Yes, the T084 would be what I would pick for a 30mm tube and 44mm objective.

Yes, the T084 rings will work.

That said, Unknown Munitions has developed a set of Tikka rings that are an improved version of the Sportsmatch. They’re more robust, heavier duty screws and have multiple recoil pin positions on both bases.

I have T084 rings on all of my Tikkas. All future Tikkas will get the UM rings.

Thanks!

Anyone have recommendations on height? Looks like they’re currently on backorder.

 

[PNWGator]

Recommend giving UM a call to discuss clearances for your specific application. They’re truly a great family run business and genuinely good people.

Anyone know of a good source for the Sportsmatch TO48C?

A little more expensive but unknownmunitions rings are solid

Thanks. I did see those. I guess I'll keep those in mind if I can't source a retailer in the US for the Sportsmatch.

Airguns of Arizona. Even if it is showing backorder, won't take long to get.

I’ll echo others; I like my UM rings a lot

Thanks...I did find them there and noticed they're on backorder, but good to hear they wouldn't take long to get.

Good to hear. I'll definitely keep these in mind...thanks!

Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback. I might just have to purchase a set of these.

Save your money and buy the SportMatch rings.

 

[BackofBeyond]

I have a set of both the Sportsmatch and UM rings.

Side by side comparison the UM rings are on my hunting rifle, Sportsmatch are on a .223 practice rifle.

Thanks for the feedback...they do seem like nice rings for the money.

Good to know! Thanks for the feedback!

Yes. I have them on my 223, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 6.5 PRC. Zero chance I would pay what UM wants for a set of rings, as long as I can buy SportsMatch.

Yeah, I wish the SportsMatch were a little more readily available here in the States. I should be able to land some though. Thanks!
