I say go with the tikka! As you say you own one and seem to like it so at least you know what you get there!

I have a 700 VLS that shoots like crazy! I installed a Jewell trigger, and 1-hole groups (5 shots) are not uncommon when I do my part. It loves 75 grain V-Maxes and 85 grain Sierras.

I have BRNO ZKK 601 in .243 that was made in 1993 but I got it new in the box late last year. I have only put about 75 rounds through it, mostly at paper, although I shot a Sika hind with it when I first got it. It is very accurate, well, for me that is, if I can get under an inch at 100 yards then I am pleased, and I am pleased. I only have BRNO or CZ rifles and cannot fault them. I have just taken custody of a CZ American in 6.5X55 have not had a chance to fire it yet, but I will...............

Sound advise there divr6347!
Tested one few weeks ago chambered in 6,5-284(originaly a 6,5-55) and the damn thing shoots as good as my sako 75 varmint 6,5-55 wich costs twice as much as the tikka!!

Quote:

only problem there is that they say to use factory ammo in it and tikka doesnt make factory ammo so whose is the best to use in one




I have never used factory ammo in my t3 lite 300win mag and i see no reason you should not use your reloaded ammo in it just as in any other rifles!

My top choices for a .243 varmint rifle in order of preference would be:

1. Savage 12BVSS
2. Remington 700 VLS
3. Tikka T3
4. Howa 1500
