Tikka, Tikka, Tikka! I handled a Bergera just for $hit$ and giggles before I bought my last Tikka… it felt like a railroad tie it was so heavy. Seemed to be awful front end/barrel heavy too, not as balanced as my Teekers are for me. Of course if you’re going with a super short barrel that shouldn’t be an issue. Whatever works for you though, it’s your money. Good luck!

Couldn't agree more, and I tried a Bergara as well and arrived at the same conclusion. I never realized "pretty" and hunting rifle were ever mentioned in the same sentence.
