I would argue that having your “trainer” having a bolt throw that exactly matches your hunting rifle (assuming it’s another tikka) is much more of a benefit than a problem.

This way, when you’re shooting positionally and practicing follow-up shots, everything is the same but the recoil. I think you would be doing yourself a disservice (in theory, still good training) with a mini action because it is not the same as the rifle you are really trying to get better at using which is your hunting rifle.

If you think about it this way, it’s a lot easier to stomach the extra weight/length of the action.

PS shut up and buy the tikka. I have the same model threaded. It’s super handy even with a 6” suppressor. It’s my favorite rifle.
