"There was a member here that had the results of the test. Sorry I can't recall his handle. Those results suggested the Tikka was more reliable in adverse conditions".
Yes sir, I remember reading that as well. Living & hunting in the South, that Canadian test didn't influence me tho.
However IF it performed that well in that cold and snow etc.... it would work here in the heat/humidity,
Guys, I'm not poo pooing Rugers !! I have had many rifles & handguns with no complaints other than bulk & weight.
In 2003 when I chose Tikka T 3 Lite..... I have never looked back. No Regerts! lol

Jerry,
I've taken a spin around the interweb (admittedly very short) but couldn't find anything official on the results of the test. Hopefully I can find something! This fellow seems to say that Ruger won the actual testing protocol.

But I really hope I find more
