You bought by far the best rifle in that price range.

I have always liked Sako's and when shopping for mid-priced hunting rifles, the Tikka really stood out.
I know that Remington and Winchester have their fans and that Savage and Ruger will put em where you point em but the feel of the Tikka and the finish and machining was so much better than the others, it was no contest.
The factory accuracy guarantee was the deciding factor.
I bought T3's in wood/blued 300WSM and S/SS 7mm-08....the 7-08 is the coolest thing. That is the most fun to shoot and will do anything I need in the PNW.
Great guns.
Where'd you get yours and where do you shoot?
