One big difference is the action - Tikkas are closed over the top - basically a little slot to eject shells through. If there's a jam or you're cleaning the gun or you empty the magazine and need to get one more round back in there, it will be slower and more awkward. I like the open action on the Kimber - I can get my fingers in there, I can see what is going on in there and it's easy to clean.

I'll let others debate overall quality, but I think they're both good guns.
So in other words,you are saying that by design,the Tikka has an inherently stiffer action and thus likely a greater potential for accurizing?
