[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 2067200, member: 53978"] Our family really likes the Tikka, having had 5. Yes, their bolts are smooth, and the action relatively light. The lightness of the push-feed Tikka raises a consideration of caliber size. I'm not sure that I would want to build a 40-caliber+ on a Tikka. Tikka 338s are great and Tikka still makes them outside the US. So would a 375Ruger be good on a Tikka? How about a 338/375Ruger "338PRC" or even a 300PRC? I'm not an engineer or gunsmith, so I don't know where limits and safety standards are. (From the other side, I can say that the lightweight Kimber actions are nice in smaller caliber but I would get nervous if building too big on a Kimber.) [/QUOTE]
