    The Tikka is just another budget rifle and shoots no better than the rest in the class listed above. They have their great accuracy guarantee but when you look at the fine print it isn't really worth the paper it's written on.

    Go with what fits you best.

    Except that they are a budget rifle that cost almost as much as a premium rifle, they are almost the same price as a CZ550 lux now, I know which one I would choose!

    They do, kilwell just don't bring them in to the country, in South Africa where they are market leader you can have almost any calibre you want.
    My brother has just bought a .375 cz550 ebony edition., it is a thing of beauty!
