Same thoughts as PeeDeeRiver…What concerns are you reading about with Tikkas? Are the actions too smooth or the rifles too accurate? I’ve never had a Tikka issue with my .260 nor have I heard of any from friends.
some of the bolt faces have cracked ,maybe its a small problem ? but i don`t want it to happen to me on a trip. i seen a couple pictures showing this too. look around on the internet you will find the problem , also on the fire here there is a post about it. when i spend $15,000.00 for a trip i don`t need a rifle problem that far away . if your interested i have a real nice Tikka Laminated stock,S.S. that has been glass bedded with a mounted picatinny base for sale 30-06 , been 10 cartridges shot thru this rifle. i will taking a Remington 700 , sorry i am no expert on this Tikka problem ,Pete53
