Choose the one in your heart leaning to after seeing both rifles in the shop. You won't go wrong since both are good choice. To me, it is like Toyota vs Honda. Hard to choose a winner by logical reasoning.
Your curiosity to another brand probably would get you to own both in future.
I like my xbolt (hell cannon) more due to my personal preference of Browning brand. Tikka trigger is better but both my T3X and Xbolt are shooting sub-moa therefore I can still live with xbolt trigger.
Xbolt recoil pad is softer than Tikka. Strongly recommend to get a limbsaver recoil pad for Tikka if buying heavy recoil calibre.
