    I had and LSA 55 in 22-250. But it dated from the 70's rather than the 80's.
    It was a very well made rifle made by the genuine but sadly gone Tikka company, not some Italian off-shoot.
    Sadly the barrel was eventually toast and I traded it on a sterile Sako 75. I should have kept it and rebarreled.

    Tikka of that era were said to be a poor man's Sako. My Tikka gave away nothing to the Sakos around then except of course a lower price. Probable timber was plainer.

    When mine still had a reasonable condition barrel it was extremely accurate.

    A mentioned in another post don't lose the mags!
