Ive always had Remingtons (Model 7's), until i purchased a 2nd hand Tikka M595 a couple of years ago, the action was silky smooth compared to the rem's, and hell did it shoot. Ive more recently purchased a T3 7mm08 which i intended to ream to a 284 win. I test fired it as a 7mm08, unreal accuracy. Had it re chambered to 284 win, and still awesome accuracy.
And silky smooth action, everything was well made, well finished and just nice (compared to the rem's). After liking the T3, i couldnt help myself when a near new T3 Super light came up for sale on here in 6.5 swede, it too shoots bloody well.
I still have my model 7's, but It goes without saying I am sold on the Tikkas, common yes, but i can see why they have become so popular, they are a nice piece of kit.
