I have been wondering this myself. Daughter wants a hunting rifle, loves my Steyer in 6.5X57, but no one can reload but myself. She and SIL will be moving away soon. Suppose I could send ammo, but expensive if done by the rules. If the Tikkas were priced where they were when I bought them then no decision at all. Tikka. Have not shot a Ruger American, but handled them. Seems to be Ruger's answer to the Tikka. Perhaps not as well done. Reviews and comment's seem good. Price is right...
