Ok, I am going to buy a new toy and have narrowed my choices down to a Tikka T3 Lite or a Browning A-Bolt Stainless. What is everyone's opinions of these two rifles?

Flip a coin. All I have heard is how great the T3 is and know a couple guys personally who would agree. I have experience/own the Browning Abolt SS Stalker and can tell you I have never had a frown.

Either way you should be happy with your new toy...good luck

As a happy, browning owner, and an admirer of a Tikka, I would go for the tikka. Why? Cause I don't got one yet. And already have a browning I love.

I got a Tikkia T-3 Light in .300 WSM as a early XMAS present and I love it I have many rifles and it is the best out of the box rifle I have ever owned. great trigger comes with rings and built in mount. And is printing ragged clover leafs already.

Hmm you could buy 2 tiikas for the price of the Browning...does that help?

When the ecomonics come into play, the Tikka is the only way to go. I just want to make sure that it is going to be a great gun for the long haul.

I will be getting a .300 WSM in either rifle.

Old elk, where can you get Tikkas for that price. I got my browning 308 for 500 dollars. Its an a-bolt medallion. Can you get Tikkas for less than that?

Up here the difference in prices I have seen between the T3 and Browning SS are very marginal at best, yes the tikka is a little less but not note worthy.

Anybody buy the fact Browning pioneered the WSM offering and as such would be the better choice. I just heard a rather heated debate about this and thought I'd see if the real experts had any input Personally I have no opinion or thoughts on it, but found it an interesting pov.
