[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1941745, member: 14204"] At 500 yards, the game will NOT know the difference but bullet choice (type, weight, etc., I like heavy bullets) for me should be a consideration. I do not have a Tikka but I have a SAKO M995 in .300 WM. They are very good actions. Tikka has a very strong following and still growing. Some of the complaints (?) I have heard in the factory offering is the barrel twist (my SAKO has a 1:11") and short magazine COAL. Either one will serve your intended purpose. It boils down to personal preference. I am not recoil-sensitive but all my hunting rifles sport a muzzle brake/suppressor, including my 6.5 CM. An effective muzzle brake serves two purposes, reduction in felt recoil and reduction in muzzle rise. I have been using muzzle brakes since 2003. The cost to thread a muzzle is $100 and muzzle brakes costs from ~$37 and up. [MEDIA=youtube]5d_wwTYuWaI:5[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
