First the Ruger 300 WM): This rifle needed both a trigger job and a bedding job to get it to shoot to my satisfaction. My A-bolts (a 7-08 and 325 WSM) both needed bedding jobs to shoot 1" - <1". The Tikka (30-06) shot great right out of the box. Shooting 1" - 1 1/4".
The only rifles I own that shoot better are my Savages
bronko, What I meant was: I would pick the X-Bolt over the three rifles in question, even though IMO the Tikka would be at least as accurate(if not more so) as the Browning.
