Just WOW.
I guess one action length, the lack of a recoil lug, a plastic bolt shroud, a plastic magazine, tupperware stock, and enclosed receiver, all at a higher cost doesn't qualify. Yes sir, the Tikka is VERY uncompromising
You are one HIGHLY entertaining SOB some times
2muchgun, the plastic and the Tupperware are all common to budget rifles.
If'n you are privy to Steel that is used for building actions barrels and said gun parts then you understand that Steel does have various grades resulting in anywhere from cheap to very expensive.
Tupperware and plastic are no different. If'n one is going to build a budget rifle for instance would you prefer to have plastic parts or the much more expensive polymer.
Is there even a difference?
Plastic polymer has a tensil strength of about 40 lbs where as some polymer has a tensil strength of around 2000 lbs exceeding the cheaper steel.
There is a reason why some stock forearms wobble around like a limp dik and some stand erect, hard, and ready for the task at hand.
You sir are quite clearing trying to expound on that which you are clearly clueless.
When it comes to the science of said materials you'd fair far better to sit your chunt on the couch......enjoy your super bowl Sunday......and get up occasionally to lick the window and dream of all the wares you've never been.
Shod
