tikka is easy button for a lot of threads

sako 90 peak is the hardest button for the wallet but the most perfect lightweight rifle in the world...it's only money right?

Gave my gun bearer away. I hated the thing.

I use a Frankenstud and a rubberized strap that grips it well.

If hiking long distances, just strap to pack.

Just took a Kodiak brown bear last week with a .378 Weatherby and a 300gr Partition scooting along at 3008fps. I'd second the observation that it is a crushing round. At 125yds (or less) the first round went right through the on-side shoulder and zipped right out of the other side, mid-chest. Looked like a punch press went through him. Interestingly, the second shot went through the base of his neck on the left while he was biting the wound on the right chest. It was able to pass completely through the neck to exit on the right neck and lodge into the angle of the jaw on the right. Perfect mushroom performance and a bear that went lights-out immediately...despite a double lung shot from the first round. I don't suppose the entire scenario lasted eight seconds.
