I was actually looking at a Tikka T3x in 7mm today. I am open to any caliber I looked at a Bergara B-14 Timber with the wood stock and cheek rest in 30-06. It felt amazing and had good weight. I also looked at a Bergara Ridge Rifle that has a threaded barrel. It like the b-4 timber was a heavier firearm around 7 pounds where the Tikka was under 5 which makes me nervous. The Tikka did have a fluted barrel though and a really thick nice butt plate. I just dont like the fact you cant fire the darn thing before you buy them to see if you really like it or not. I dont know much when it comes to these hunting rifles. I primarily used a marlin 30-30 growing up or my uncles 300 win mag which was amazing to shoot and had no recoil somehow but it was way to big for white tail deer so he sold it. ( he won it from gander mtn in a raffle) I wish i had the opportunity to buy it. I just want a firearm that is capable of more than one game animal and im comfortable with.
