    Feel the Tikka love lol

    Found this thread as I am mulling over the idea of getting one as I want a modern rifle I could possibly use for some 'longer' range shooting.

    I would certainly look at a Tikka, they are hardly any more than a new Remington 700, yet have a nicer fit an finish, better trigger and are lighter. The factory synthetic Tikka stocks are better than most on cheap rifles.

    I would probably buy a 2nd hand one over a new one, there are loads of them on Trademe and you can pick up barely used ones for heaps cheaper.
    Unless you want an obscure calibre, theres bound to be a near new one on Trademe.
    I'm waiting for a 2nd hand .260 to come on, there has been a couple come up but they disappear quickly and I don't have the funds just yet.

    I'd be happy to buy a near new one, if the price is right etc.

    As for round, not too sure, thinking 6.5x55, no idea why though. In terms of brands, Remington, Tikka & Howa are the 3 that jump out the most at this stage (Though I read Remingtons can be real hit and miss in terms of getting a good one or not).

    So the answer is yes, ... if you replace most of it.

    Me? Lippy?

    The way i look at is I you dont like Tikkas or .270s, don't buy one!!!

    Then you have nothing to worry about.
