[QUOTE="WanderingGoatie, post: 1951581, member: 94880"] I’ve got two Stillers, one Deviant and I’ve shot a few tikkas. Tikkas are butter smooth but a bit sloppy. Defiance will feel like a smooth piece of equipment. Either way you’re going to have a nice rifle when you’re done. The one down side to a really tight action I learned this year on an exceptionally windy trip for prairie dogs where everything got gritty. One of the two stiller actions has tighter tolerances and that thing got downright questionable regarding consistent function. I never thought tight tolerances in a rifle would be a bad thing until that day. They really were extreme circumstances but on a hunting rifle on the buck of a lifetime... who knows if it would ever matter. [/QUOTE]
