    It entails you removing two screws, then putting those two screws back in once you change the stock. It’s not hard at all.

    And while you got the stock off I would adjust the trigger on it. Allen screw in trigger gaurd area. Some models you don’t have to remove the stock and some models you do. Tikka has a very clean and crisp trigger for a factory rifle.

    And you fuckers said I was an asshole
    Seeing these soulless vanilla ice lookin Yankees on a bassboat is worse than watching a woman get her implants taken out. It's just wrong. Get back in your Lund and go back to infisherman.

    I have Browning, Remington and Savage rifles but don't own a Tikka. Not like I need another rifle but from reading this, maybe I do.

    I own a Sako. It's okay. I shoot a BLR most of the time because I'm hunting, and it's prettier. I've got a couple Remingtons as well, two 700s. I like those also.

    Which Sako? What's it chambered in? How much do you want for it?
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    300 wsm, it's not in me to ever sell a gun I've hunted with. It's the only long gun or shotgun that I own without wood on it.

    Both are really good hunting rifles. If you go with the laminated Tikka, you won’t need to upgrade the stock. Those laminates are epoxy impregnated and weatherproof and stable as any fiberglass stock. Having it bedded would be a good upgrade. I’ve killed a ton of game with an Abolt. The long range fad has caused people to stat doing a ton if silly shit to rifles that generally don’t get shot beyond 250-300 yards.

    I LOL'd and realized I'm guilty. I'm trying to move away from that, though.

    A Sako is what a Tikka wants to be when it grows up. They come from the same place.

    Sako 85 Synthetic Black at EO in ‘06 is $899.00, .270 is $949.00.

    I’ve got a 75 Hunter in 7mm08, 85 FinnBear in 7mmRM and a Finnlight in .300WM, all of them shoot well and are a pleasure to carry. I’ve got a Bavarian Carbine 85 in .308 on order but no telling when it’ll be here.

    Hey dumb fuck. I will type this a little slower this time. Tikka has a very clean and crisp trigger for a factory rifle. Is it the best? No. Can you buy better? Yes. Do I need to ride to Georgia to shoot custom rifle with a good trigger? No I think I’ll walk out the door and shoot one of my own but thanks for the invite. Hopefully I typed it slow enough for you to comprehend.
