RE: Tikka T3 vs Browning Abolt
Browning is a more solid rifle with a good easily adjustable triggerfrom6#to3#(sorry bigbull), though I did swap springs to get it to 1 1/2lbs, better stock. IMO its the best hunting rifle for the money. The tikkas I have seen just felt and looked cheap, but they do shoot great, dare I say better than my a-bolt.
edit- If I had to over again check out CZ.
