[QUOTE="Leaf Litter, post: 3033868, member: 124584"] You seem to intentionally ignore the fact that tikka costs well over twice as much for similarly accessorized rifles. The Tikka T3X Veil @ $1450 is the closest in options to a standard RA2 @ $600 (fluted, cerakoted, and threaded barrel w/ useless muzzle brake.) Or, if you'd rather build your own Tikka, the cost breaks down even worse. T3X Lite $750 + Fluted, cerakoted, and threaded Prefit barrel $700 + cheap brake $75 = $1525. Yes Tikka is better, there's no debate needed, I built 2 for a reason. You just don't understand the appeal because you're willing to spend 250% of RA2 cost for a Tikka. RA2 is an excellent rifle option for somebody wanting to spend under $1k after tax for a rifle, rings and scope for hunting. And at that price it will still shoot well under 1 MOA when fed ammo it likes. Not everybody spends $3k on a hunting rig. [/QUOTE]
