Help decide between savage or tikka

[Rdcpinoy]

Hi everyone I'm looking into buying a bolt action and have decided to go 6.5 creedmore. I'm stuck between the 10 SAVAGE ASHBURY PRECISION and the T3x TAC A1. Any info on or recommendation between these two rifles

Thanks

What one fits you best? That is the one to buy. Both companies make good rifles.

FWIW I own the T3X CTR while one of my friends have the Savage 10 BA Stealth. Both have smooth actions and I would give the edge to Tikka. Not a fan of the chassis setups however the TAC A1 does look like a sweet deal if you go that route.

I did the same research recently, almost pulled the trigger on a Stealth, the Ashbury is really nice. I would go Tikka T3x if I had the money, but I don't think you could go wrong with either. I would hold them both and see which one fits you best then go with that. Good luck and give us a range report once you get one.

The tikka action is definitely a nicer made and smoother functioning action between those two choices.

After looking at the Bergara, RPR, and the Tac A1, I decided on the Tac A1. The bolt on the Tikka won me over.

Tikka.

What is the planned purpose of the rifle ?

[tsoiky]

I sold my Savage Stealth to fund the Tikka Tac A1. Once my friend tried my Tikka, he sold his RPR and bought a Tikka.

i shot savages for several years...buy the tikka.

Having owned a savage (not that particular model) and sold it. I now own two Tikka's and will buy another when the time comes for another rifle. Great actions. The savage was accurate but clunky and did not feed as smoothly.

Tikka

Tikka- same as trying do decide between Mc Donald's and Ruth's Chris. Both will make a turd (go bang) but you'll be a lot happier with one over the other.

I have 2 Tikka's. 260 Rem and 270 Win. Both are VERY accurate. Tikka's are
all long action. For the short action calibers, they use a different magazine
and a bolt stop. If you plan to reload, it is simple to use a long action
magazine and bolt stop (I did this on my 260), which, if you do reload,
allows you to use a longer COAL. One thing I don't like about the Tikka
is the 2 position safety. The bolt is locked in the safe position and you can't
remove a live cartridge from the chamber (without the safety in the fire position).

Don't own a Savage and can't comment on it.

FYI Tikka Tac A1 has 3 position safety. You can remove a live cartridge with safety on.

Also the Tac A1 has 2 stage trigger.
