f***ed if I knew why, just preference I guess.

I didn't mean anything by it, nor do I feel like it is a derogatory term for a Rifle, or any other firearm for that matter.
Far as I'm concerned, only anti gunners and the like, use it in a derogatory way, and I do not want to conform to emotional based decisions on what a word means.
Regardless of my opinions, I will do my best to maintain correct use of terminology.
Cheers.

I'm online, browsing all these goddamn sexy pieces of Iron & Wood, that I can't shoot maybe I should think about learning how to shoot right handed? If I'm gonna get into SMLE's & KAR98's I should probably give it a shot.
Thanks for all the advice gents, really appreciate it.
Enjoy your Sunday.

Yeah. It is.

So do Tikka and it's a grand cheaper and does the same job.

He said quality rifle and that he wasn't too worried about price. Saying Tikka & Sako do the same thing is like saying Zastava & Tikka do the same thing. Zastava is cheaper than Tikka and also do left handed rifles so maybe you think he should get on of those instead?
Gwion wrote:I have used both and the simple quality difference is obvious. You may not personally think it is worth $1000 but that is an individual's choice. The OP distinctly stated 'quality rifle, not to worried about price'.
FYI, you can pick up a Sako Lefty for around $1800 at the moment if you are flexible with chambering.
