I just turned 18 and looking into bolt action precision rifles. I don't have any experience so I need some advice. Atm I have these three guns in mind and what info I got about them so far.
Tikka T3x: lighter than bergara, better trigger than browning
Browning x bolt: better stock than tikka, lighter than bergara
Bergara b14: better stock than tikka, better trigger than browning
I'm having a tough time deciding. All of them are really accurate. They are all in the same price range. One catch, however, is that I do not want to replace parts. Only buy a scope and a bipod at most. This means that the Tikka and Browning will be used with factory stock and trigger respectively. Due to college I won't have enough time to learn how to and go hunting. So this will be more of a range gun. If I need a tie breaker, I like the looks of the BMP and Tact A1. Imo the look of a tactical grip and a "modern" chassis looks nice.
Thanks for the help everyone!
