I find the Tikka to be of a different design in on how it’s closed around the bolt action where it ejects the shells. The plastic parts would be a concern for me being that it can get pretty cold up here during rifle season for deer. The accuracy is definitely a plus with it having the same type of barrel as a Sako. The plastic clip is definitely a turn off for me but that’s me. If I would consider a Tikka it would have to be with a long cartridge to take full advantage of the long action. Maybe some day but I sure like my Sako.
