Tikka plastic, is it good or not
Well, I went to the local gunshop to see what gun I liked the best and I decided that out of a Remington 700 BDL SS, a Winchester 70 Classic Stainless, a Browning A-bolt Stainless Stalker, and a Tikka T-3 Lite Stainless
1. The Tikka had the smoothest bolt action followed by the Remington, then Winchester, and last the Browning (it felt like crap).
2. I want the Tikka but I was wondering if the plastic magazine should be of concern? Is this a gun that will last a lifetime, or is it just a good performer that lasts 15 years before it breaks down? If it is I think I will reconsider.........
3. Is the Tikka a strong gun...........the action, is it rock solid like the Remington, is the stock as strong as another factory stock, and is the steel they use premium quality.
4. I also want to test a Ruger. I hear they are good guns.
5. Summary: I don't just want an accurate rifle, I want a durable, rugged, lifetime gun. Will the Tikka be these?
Thanks
