All sheep think the same after all!
Enlighten me as to how a Tikka shoots better than a Savage,Howa,Ruger or Remington?
With everything being equal no one could tell the difference so why is your beloved T$&&a so special and better?
To the original poster I'd keep an eye out for a Mark V weatherby as there are a number in the sub 1400 coming out second hand in near new Nic and are fantastic rifles. I suppose it depends on your calibre and specifics, for 1500 a second hand sako 75 is possible and they are second to none.
