Tikka rifles any good ?

Radar

I want to buy my son a rifle for Christmas and have only seen a couple of left handed rifles for sale around here in 7MM mag. and they were both Remingtons.I don't think Remington's are as good as they used to be.Always liked Ruger but I don't know if anybody has a lefty in 7MM mag.Savage has a 7MM mag. anybody have one and how do you like it ? Anybody have a Tikka in 7MM Mag. and how do you like it ?

I have a tikka 338 federal love it only complaint. I have is spare Mag's are quite pricey

I have 3 tikka's and would not hesitate to buy another. The butt pad leaves something to be desired so I swapped out for a sims. Also tikka's tend to be pretty light weight..hence heavier felt recoil. On my 300 win mag I had a brake installed and now the recoil is very manageable even on a long day at the range.

I have 2 of the older model Tikka rifles....the M595 in a .22-250 and the M695 in .300 Win Mag. They are awesome rifles for the money! [8D]

NOAH

i have one in 6.5x55 S. awesome is all i can say

used to have a 30-06 but it did kick so i had a stock pad replaced

i'm sure your 7mm mag will kick harder no mater what brand you buy.

but the Tikka is way good to go ,one of the best market gun for the price and quality

The best buys for the money are Tikka, Savage and Howa.

I left out CZ.

Tikka has long been called the "poor man's Sako." I'll leave it at that.

Tikka's are fine shooting guns with walnut stocks and hand checkering. At least they used to be.

I have a Tikka .338 Federal as well. Excellent shooter. I like it and my only complaint is an all plastic mag that will cost $60 to replace if I ever break it or lose it. Great rifle with a nice trigger. I say buy it, your son should be happy.

I totally agree. Unless U live in BSR's area,I doubt U will really ever need the MAG. power.
