RE: Tikka vs Ruger
I would say that the tikka is more accurate. I would go farther to say that it is a less desirable weapon. I'm not a fan of composites. I don't care what you say about them being better than steel, I say BS. They are on there because they are cheaper not because its better.
I for the life of me don't know why Ruger doesn't improve their triggers. They totally suck. They always (yes always) have a tremendous amount of creep and extremely heavy pull. For anyone that says they need: "a little" trigger work, you don't know what you are talking about. They need a lot of trigger work, or better yet a new trigger assembly. The problem is that even after you buy an aftermarket trigger you can't always get a good trigger when you are done. If Ruger would engineer a good adjustable trigger in their rifles, they would be the only hunting weapons I would buy.
