I'm going to question some of that. My rifles and ammo are are stored separately. But rifle bolts and mags live in the rifles they belong to. I have a stout room, fire door with decent lock, bars on...

I think the tikka is an all round better rifle than x bolt. Lighter, better carry rifle. Better trigger. Generally not ammo fussy and superb out of box accuracy. Stock or chassis upgrades...
