The Sako doesnt really meet the "light(ish)" part of the wants.
No doubt they’re great rifles, and I’d happily own one. But the S20 Precision weighs 8.5lbs bare. The S20 Hunter weighs more than my Tikka+rings+20oz scope.Or the sako, which is already threaded, has a chassis and ceracoat. Plus integral Pic rail on top.
I believe the difference is just barrel profile. I have the T3X Lite Stainless.Dumb question for all you Tikka owners.... is the T3X different from the T3X lite? When people recommend a Tikka, which are they referring to?

Got it, makes sense. Thank you!T3X is the updated current action model that came along after the T3 so T3X is generalizing all of the sub models. Lite is just a model/variant of the T3X. It's like saying Remington 700 which is very general and just the action but there's many models of the 700.
Tikka all day. Savages are trash and so are Bergaras CF barrels, you’ll be right back in the same boat you’re in with your CA because cheap carbon barrels just aren’t good. If it’s not a Proof or a Bartlein don’t bother.
The Tikka is a great rifle though.
And it weighs 8.5 lbs doesnt it?Or the sako, which is already threaded, has a chassis and ceracoat. Plus integral Pic rail on top.
Gonna piggy-back on this and go further. I've seen folks suggest a T3X lite and recommend cut and tread. Can you guys confirm no issues with the OD on the T3X lite with cut and tread as long as the gunsmith puts some sort of collar on?
And is a stock fit interchangeable between the two? Would a Tikka Compact stock fit on either?
