I have had many rugers. But only one Tikka. I would NEVER buy a tikka again.After about 100 rounds the magazine started to fall out of the bottom of the action. How about I make a rule. If you buy forign guns-cars you can't complain about the economy. I currently have a ruger m77 mk II that shot out of the box ragged hole groups at 100 yards. If you really want a tikka then get one, and deal with beretta's crappy costomer service department. You can get a one size fits all action or a american made action that works like a tank.
