Hello everyone,

Heavy barrel Tikka Continental - Any Opinions? Especially from owners.

Thinking of this instead of the Sporter. Plan to use it at the range and hunting for deer (308 Caliber).

340,

If you have one of these rifles, hold onto it.

I just found out the Canadian Importer (Stoeger) no longer orders these from Tikka. I can' t say if this will effect the USA also. To get a heavy barrel you' ll have to order the Sporter now.

What a pitty you cant order the continental,I have one & think its the most accurate & well balanced rifle i' ve ever used & I think it would have been perfect for your needs,they will have to pry mine from my cold dead hands.

Mine is a 7mm-08 & if I had the money i' de buy one in 223 & another in 9.3x62 for range rifles & occasional hunts.

You would have been very very happy with one.

Good luck with what you get

Maybee you could try beretta in the USA as they import tikka & sako into Australia & the USA I think too,actually I think Beretta owns Tikka & Sako.

Good luck anyhow.
