[QUOTE="hawk45, post: 836203, member: 27634"] The Tikka is just made with all plastic parts and uses a closed top long action for all calibers. It uses 3 different bolt stops for .223, SA and LA. The magazines are all the same size but there are stops in those as well to limit cartridge length depending on caliber. The nice thing is you can use the LA mags with SA calibers as long as you swap or modify the bolt stops. Barrels are all the same between Tikka and Sako I believe. I'm going to pass on the 30-06 and the .25-06 as there just isn't enough benefit over the .308 and the .260 in those two. I think a 7mm is where it's at. [/QUOTE]
