But at that price they cost the same as a Tikka, on which I never replaced anything. Well, not true. I replaced a stock with a B&C once and found out that for several hundred dollars more, it did nothing for me and the Tikka stock suited me just fine.

So they're a wash for me too. I mean the 700 ain't exactly without any corner cutting itself if we're calling the Tikkas a budget gun.

The garbage finish wouldn't be so bad if it didn't rust like crazy.
