tikka ctr vs ruger predator with magpul hunter stock

Post by allthegearandnoidea » 04 Jun 2018, 7:07 pm

Wouldve pulled the pin on the ss ctr t3 in 243 runout for $1200 - helluva deal! BUT been thinking that given the superb accuracy of the Ruger - if I ditch the crap ruger stock and bolt on a Magpul Hunter stock I get a great rifle for the same price. OK its not a buttery smooth action out of the box but it will be after 500 cycles. OK its not stainless but it is a cool matte finish, And besides I can get it in 6.5 Creedmoor - and everyone knows that is the most accurate cal on the planet :D

Whadayareckon?

I have a ctr. It's now well suited as a lite hunting gun.

Sorry, yes, 'not'. It's a bit heavy.
