Savage if I were doing the buying. I don't like the Tikka one size fits all action. Savage is also made in America and most shoot really well right out of the box. As far as cartridge selection, you didn't say what you were going to be using it for.

I would buy the savage in 7mm-08 for deer sized game. Ibought that package. It's accurate and tough enough for all weather conditions. and 7mm-08 is one of my favorites.
Tikka, better trigger, detachable mag, lighter, the action is way smoother than savage and the tikka has a lower bolt lift, free rings and is better in fit and finish.
