Hello again everyone. Have another post here asking for help identifying a 6mmx284 rifle and everyone was great. So I have another question.
Quick background my father passed last year and I'm finally getting around to selling off his bolt action rifles. I'm still in the 'gun newb' category so I'm hoping to get some advice on this particular rifle. It was the only one in his collection that didn't have a bolt. I'm not familiar with Tikka at all. He loved his 223 rifles and did a fair amount of varmint shooting as well as bench competitions. I'm not sure what this rifle was meant for but it looks unused. I tried googling around for a 'Tikka T3 223 bolt' but came up with zippo. Just references to complete rifles.
So whats the standard procedure in this situation? I realize a bolt-less rifle is worth significantly less. I'd be willing to purchase one if the price of the bolt was offset by the overall value of the rifle (probably making it easier to sell as well). But I can't find anything online about buying just the bolts. Any help would be appreciated.
Quick PS: Anyone know anything about the optic? Its pretty cool looking. Has almost a copper/iridescent coating over the top of the matte black powder coat.
