Dave JamesTika O/U
I am considering a trade of my 86 33 win on a Tika 9.3x74.
I know the group here dosen't consider the tika a serious game double, but how about general use plains game and , that which is hunted here in the states?
I cannot find another double rifle in the 2k area, are there others to consider?

Bill/OregonDave:
This sounds like the kind of thing that would tempt me, but no far down the road I would realize that I swapped something irreplaceable and highly desirable for an oddball rifle that very few people are crazy about. I'd say hold on to the 86 and look for a used Pedersoli Kodiak Magnum in 9.3 or .45-70. Of course, my opinion is virtually worthless ...

Charles_HelmNitroX used his on a water buff cull hunt.
Some info and link to full report in this thread.Short of that a used Pedersoli may be the only other option.
