Bergara B14 vs the Tikka T3X in 7 mag.
I’m a bow Hunter that has started hunting out west and I’ve drawn an elk rifle tag. The Bergara feels nice, but the Tikka is about pound less and the action slides like butter. I’m leaning towards the Bergara but a couple of my knowledgeable friends, and even a gunsmith is pushing me towards the Tikka. I’m 50 years old and those hills can be challenging. Is that pound worth it? ALSO……what are you guys thoughts on a scope for it? I expected to put a scope on for 200-300$$. They laughed at me at the gun counter. Any input is much appreciated!
