[QUOTE="Doublezranch, post: 642555, member: 32664"] I have had the Tikka in a 300wsm. I hated that gun. Even thought it shot the biggest deer of my life (170), I could not get that gun to shoot. I tried every bullet and powder combo I could think of and still not go. I even went as far as to send my barrel to David Tubbs for a full meal deal. It was a little better after that but not much. I hated the fact that your max seating depth was the size of the clip. If you wanted a single shot rifle, then you could seat your bullets at whatever length you wanted, but if you wanted a follow up shot or two, you needed to seat the bullet to the clip size so the shells would fit in the clip. In my opinion, there is no gun more accurate out of the box than a 700. There are tons accessories that they make for them and the rifles are tried and true. To me it is a no brainer, but of course that is only my opinion. [/QUOTE]
