It has always amazed me at how EVERY budget rifle owner thinks their gun shoots like a more well equipped/expensive gun.

Every Tikka owner, Savage owner, Howa/Vanguard owner, etc. The latest to the party is the Ruger American owner.

I will tell you a little secret, they all shoot equally well. And claiming one to be more accurate than the rest is nothing more than brand biased hogwash.

What I can also tell you, is that the Tikka is a budget rifle in every way, except price. Compare it, part for part, with any of the others mentioned, and then tell me why it costs more money when you, in fact, get less............
