Hi all,
I see we have a lot of birthdays-mine's in a week. My question is--how good is a Tikka lite in 270 wsm. It could be my last rifle. I'm starting to have age catch up and will be going on a disabled hunt in October. I am a lefty and not a rich man. At Cabela's they have a used Tikka like mentioned. They still want like $550-I thought that was a bit high, but in general, even in a different rifle, would I perhaps like a 30.06 better? I see that there are few options in factory loads. And I always wanted an odd six, with a light mag round it could be a better round for an aging shoulder-so I guess there is two questions-what about the cheaper Tikka and is meat loss a problem with a 270 wsm? I do like the idea of how flat that must shoot. I could be shooting across a farm field-a good 200 yds or more. Thanks for any help.
Sincerely,
Michael
