I like Tikkas. Don't really love 'em. With that said, I own two and working up a load will be easy. These rifles will shoot just about anything inside 1.5" and several into 1/2 MOA or better. They just lack something that a solid old Remington or Winchester have. Maybe its 'metal' the Tikkas lack in some places, but they sure as hell shoot.


I have an old Mauser 98 8mmJS with double set triggers when I really feel the need for old world Craftsmanship !
My Tikka Superlight does .75 at a Hundred with 130 Grain Federal Fusion and Less than an inch with Hornady Whitetail 130 grains.
Itchin to try the factory ammo out to around to a least 400 yards and see if it still maintains this accuracy at longer ranges.
