According to their video, the existing gunsmith can't even get a T3 into its stock.
The standard won't need to be to high.

funny thing you are talking about a tikka t3 !!!!!! a guy at malabar range in sydney bought out a tikka T3 in 308win in their tactical model and he bought it over to show me, he said it's hard to remove the bolt ?????? well I looked at it and noticed that the action was not sitting in the stock properly???? Hmmmm this was a brand new rifle!!!! well I pulled it apart and the steel recoil lug thats molded into the stock was about 2mm forward of where it should have been, don't get me wrong they are a good rifle, but I think someone here in ozzie land stuffed with it ,be it at the importer or shop ,,, please note again that I am in no way putting these rifles down, only stating what I saw.

If your technique is incorrect when fitting the the action to the stock it can be difficult.
