Default Tikka 6.5 creedmoor

I was set on getting the Ruger precision 6.5 creedmoor but this may change things. New Tikka T3X Tac A1 6.5 Creedmoor anyone have it? What are your thoughts?

Tikka will have a smoother bolt and possibly a more accurate barrel. At the end of the day tho, both rifles will shoot better then the shooter. Shoulder them both and pick the one you like. There is also the Savage 6.5CM Ashbury that you can consider since it sounds you want the chassis. There is also a Savage LRP 12 in 6.5cm on the buy and sell, heard the seller is flexible on price

I love my 6.5cm, super accurate. You'll be able to shoot great with either.

I've got one in 260rem. It's been a super rifle, never owned a chassis type gun before.
Although it took some getting used to I've found it to be very user friendly. Only complaints would be that the ten round mag only seems to hold nine. Also the full length rail (IME) forces you to buy a unimount to get some cant on your optic.
Accuracy has exceeded my expectations.
