OK so my very accurate Tikka T3 stainless synthetic has gone to continue it's fox destruction program with a new owner.
I'm up for a new rifle, I've already filled in the one for one variation.
Some background info. Its mainly going to be used for foxing, 50% walking, 50% from a truck, but I do have other rifles I can use. I have been reloading for nearly 15 years and really enjoy the challenge. I'm left handed but quite like a left hand stock right hand action. I'd like something a bit different but it has to be super accurate.
In think I've narrowed it down to two choices.
I looked at a Sauer 202 Syncro XT or Wolverine and equivalent Blaser, but they were too much money and didn't suit exactly wath I wanted.
The logical sensible choice:
A Sako 85 in varmint stainless or another Finnlight, more than likely with Manners or Robertson. I'd like a GRS but you can't get a right hand action, left hand one for an 85, so maybe a Joe West or Parmoor.
The 'I've always fancied one' choice
Ackley improved blue printed Remington action, heavy fluted stainless border barrel, nice trigger with a GRS, Manners, Robertson etc. Hopefully not ending up too heavy.
What do you think?
