    Tikka's are ok as a budget rifle as they were intended, they shoot well with a bit of tinkering! They are however overrated by some ( me being one of the some) but still a good enough rifle! The Howa, in my opinion does a far better job for approx.60% of the price of a Tikka, they don't have as much plastic as the Tikka and the fucking bolts don't fall out!!! The Howa being based on the older Sako L579 action, are in the same class as a Sako which of course is the parent company of the Tikka. The Savage is also a good budget rifle that fire bullets where they are aimed and cost approx. 50% of a Tikka and their bolts don't fall out either. The plastic stocks on all 3 examples are good enough, though the Howa seems to be superior to the other 2. I have compared all these rifles together as I own all 3 of them and rate the Howa as the best of the 3.... I have 2 Tikka's 4 Howa's and 1 Savage. One of my Tikka's is .270 which has accounted for more deer than Toby has seen. Anyway that should be enough for some Tikka owners to half read what I have written and and draw the wrong conclusions and get on here and dribble shit about how their Tikka compares to.... and out shoots..... and looks better than... and haven't lost their bolt... and ... and... and
    gadgetman, RichieRich and Toby like this.
