[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 1311014, member: 17844"] The Japaneses guns are all made on German made machines so they are fairly good rifles and the basic Howa , Weatherby Vanguard design came from Australian designers originally . America makes so much good stuff it is hard to look elsewhere but Sako and Tikka are good quality stuff in general . Tikka being a bit cheaper style production but still good shooters . You have to be happy with the gun you buy confidence is a big part of shooting well . My father fought the Japaneses on the Burma trail / railway in WW2 with the British Grenadier Guards and he hated them with a vengeance . Even as an old man If he saw Japs in the street he would want to attack them . Twice me and my brother had to hold him back from harassing some poor jap tourists . It was real crazy stuff . Once you explained to the Japs that he fought on the Burma trail in WW2 and he is not quite right anymore they would accept it and bow and that was it . They are a different people now and a friend so we have to cut them some slack . Funny thing is my father fought the Germans and the Japs but he never hated the Germans like that . I think he saw some awful stuff on the Burma railway . [/QUOTE]
