I have one and I like it.
Pros: very nice trigger, slick and fast bolt, accurate, light.
Cons: It's realistically a three shooter. Mine's a magnum and although you can jam 3 in the magazine the top round will bind a bit. LOP is a bit long. Ugly magazine latch, but it works.
I got mine bnib at a blow out price, Don't think I'd be as happy with it at retail.

I bought one on a blowout deal and why I liked the light weight, the super slim forestock and the smooth bolt, it did feel a little cheap with respect to the plastic stock and the finish quality on the metal. For the price, I would def suggest a Tikka.
