Great review
HACT triggers are absolutely user adjustable. The extractor is M16 style on the Howa, they are a bit different than the Sako type.
Yeah, I misspoke on the extractor. I used to say the triggers were user adjustable, but having to remove epoxy covering the set screw that voids the warranty kinda isn't really user adjustable. Not for the average user anyway. Also, I find that it's difficult to really tune or adjust the trigger unless the spring is replaced or trimmed.
@@Bullets4Bucks I agree it's not as easy to adjust as say a Trigger Tech, but it is adjustable. I could not find where trigger adjustment specifically voids the warranty, but I can't say that it doesn't either. I've done the spring replacement on one and also clipped the spring on another and was happy with the results.
thanks for the video
You're welcome
Great thumbnail picture of the tikka, too bad you didn’t take it yourself.
Is there any chance you could do a review on the newest 4.3lbs(16 inches barrel) howa superlite short?
Yes
Since you do so many reviews, I think a scale would do a lot to keep manufactures honest.
That's odd. I have a Carbon Elevate in 6.5 PRC, and it's completely free floated all the way to the recoil lug.
The groups shifting POI on the Howa, would piss me off. Something is wrong there. The Tikka definitely shoots better, but what do you expect???
I usually aim at the corners of the red squares for a smaller aiming point and the zero was a adjusted between some of these samples. Both are very accurate
I'll stick with my Benelli Lupo Walnut. Nice rifles though

still stick with the tikka.
I'll keep my savage 110
I'd consider a Howa if they made LH which they do not. I now own multiple Tikka rifles and, for me, there are multiple reasons to go with Tikka
1. One action length
2. for $8 you can put a lighter trigger spring in it and get it to 1 pound or close
3. Despite their non integrated recoil lug, the fact is, their system works and works very well
4. I primarily buy factory hunting rifles with the possibility of doing some aftermarket (custom) work to them
Example: I can buy a used LH Tikka on gunbroker, say, in 270WSM (simply not popular anymore), and easily convert it to a 7PRC. My gunsmith can modify the bolt stop for $20 to make it long action. I can replace the polymer mag with a long action for $20. Trigger spring $8. And, where I buy my barrels, they can match a Tikka factory contour barrel and I can use the factory stock if I want. A new barrel is $320 and to cut crown and chamber it is another $275, bead blast is around $40. Muzzle thread: $50. Or I can have cerakote for $200 - I've done both
Used tikka: $550
Finished out hand lapped cut rifled 4 groove barrel: $645 (cut crown chamber thread muzzle)
Spring: $8 (Factory Tikka trigger pulls at 1 pound)
Bolt stop mod: $20 (to convert to long action)
Cerakote: $200
So, for $1423 I can have custom built 7PRC Tikka for less than a new Tikka Veil which retails at $1499 and is not available in 7PRC (yet anyway). I did pay another $50 to get the bolt fluted as an after thought so parts and labor were $1473. The first 3 shots were with Federal factory ELD-X ammo and measured 0.390 using a bipod and rear bag at 100 yards
I also did just buy a Stocky's Stock LH Tikka ultra carbon stock on sale for $358 which has an inlet that duplicates a factory Tikka stock so no mod needed, no bedding necessary
Tikka: lost me at "not threaded". No go in 2024.
Depends on the model of the Tikka.
Facts. I chose a Bergara b-14 ridge over the t3x because it had a threaded barrel🤷🏻♂️
@@bryce1251 You chose a Bergara with a threaded barrel over a Bergara without a threaded barrel. I chose a Tikka with a threaded barrel over a Tikka without a threaded barrel. Some Tikkas have threaded barrels and some do not. Some Bergaras have threaed barrels and some do not.
Keep in mind that they are not threaded only in US, rest of the world almost every single Tikka is threaded.
@@imeprezime1069 understood, but as a US consumer in the middle of US, I don't want to take a brand new rifle to a gunsmith to thread the barrel. It's time for manufacturers to expect that consumers are it as a standard feature and not an option.
