[QUOTE="Beanburrito, post: 1073878, member: 89678"] I know that the 223 tikka is not much for over 1000 yard shots but I shot one today and at 600 yards it was dead on we were at the range for 4 hrs shoting ranges from 100 to 600 yards I shot a savage 223 also and I learned one very important thing the scope makes all the difference in the world I could not even compete at 400 plus yards because on my 243 I have the Nikon BDC 3-9 and it did not cut it I was so disappointed in the scope. All three guns shot well and I was happy with the tikka I made my first long shot kill 277 yards on a Prairie dog. The guy only wants $400 for either the tikka or the savage I'm very tempted to get that 223 by tikka it was shooting very good even with a less performing scope than what the savage had on it.
