thanks mark. so i know sako is a good rifle, i have never shot one myself so i was thinking do you gain alot more with the sako i looked at one in the store the other day it was about 1300 the model 85. and seen the tikka for 600. jsut tryn to see if you think its worth the other 700 or so??
is there a big diff in the tikka t3 270 wsm 140gr accubond and the tikka t3 300wsm 180 TSX as far as recoil goes?? i can handle the 270wsm but just dont know if its a big step up to the 300 wsm
