[QUOTE="300WSMMAD, post: 259085, member: 11709"] Yep sure Ill start! Tikka 300WSM Stainless Laminate. 178 gr AMaxs, its like a magic wand!! they just fall over. Im sure you will find a rather large amount of replies you will get will have nothing but good things to say about "Tikkas" smooth, well priced, good rings IMO, good weight balance,well bedded etc. I cant comment on the Browning I have played with one breifly but never shot one. BUT I will say that I think no matter what breed rifle you buy in any of the WSM calibres you will find its accurate, more because of the science behind the case design rather than the quality of the rifle. My Tikka shoots 3/4" grps @ 200 yrds all day. I took mate of mine and his twin 15 yr old boys out for a goat shoot last year, we didnt see much to start with, but I picked up a mob @ 550 yrds. I got the first young fella down behing the rifle,bipod with a sand bag under the rear of the stock,we picked out a big billy, I showed him how to and how much to adjust the elevation and the paralex, which he did himself. The billy was broadside,I told him just to hold on the shoulder and to shoot when he was comfortable,while I looked through binos, few seconds later BOOOOM.... FLOP! The mob didnt move so I ushered the other brother behind the rifle he lined up on aother billy BOOOM.... FLOP, the mob just kinda milled around at this stage but didnt move off so I got me mate be the Tikka he got comfy BOOOM..... FLOP! they got the message then and moved away! 3 good billys 550 yrds 3 shots with 3 different people who had never ever shot 1;that rifle and 2; that far ever before. All where extatic and sadly their old man is now being pestered to death about buying a Tikka 300WSM so "we can go out and do that Dad!!!!":D So yep, I rate them!! Regards 300WSMMAD [/QUOTE]
