    Chuck Hawks rips Tikka a new one

    There's a gun for everyone I placed my order for a Savage 10FLP in 223 this week. I really wanted the 12VLP, but couldn't get left-handed locally and choose to not buy guns through the net. This gun will be my 200 and 300 yard plinker and practice rifle. I'm mounting a Bushnell Elite 4200...

    223 bolt rifles

    I'm searching for a 223 bolt to use for longer than 22 range plinking. I may also carry it deer hunting instead of my 7mm mag. I rejected Savage (the material workmanship doesn't impress me.) I've settled in on Sako Tikka (my 7mm is a SAKO - love it), browning A-bolt, and maybe Ruger 77 or...
