Not looking to pick a fight here, but can someone explain to me the utility of having a Tikka in a short action. I mean the action length, weight, and usually barrel length is the same. If you’re going to get a .308, might as well make it a 30-06. If you’re going to get it rechambered to .358 Winchester, you might as well make it a .35 Whelen and so on and so forth.
It just doesn’t matter. The huge less than half inch difference in length means nothing. Does shooting 223 in a short action bother you?
You’re pole vaulting over mouse turds.
