Of the 2 mentioned, I'd go Bergara 8 days a week. Of all the options in the Bergara price range, I'd go Tikka CTR 8 days a week.
I struggled with this question for a long time and eventually decided to go with the tikka. I know that the Bergara is 700 footprint which is awesome for aftermarket stuff, but tikka aftermarket support is really good too. Companies like PVA are even making shouldered barrels for them now, which is awesome.
I will be the odd man out and go with the Remington. Mine is the magpul 5r model and it shoots about 3/4moa with any ammo I have put in it. But yes if Tikka is a option I would go Tikka.
B-14 HMR. Just picked one up recently and extremely happy with this purchase.
Have you ran a Tikka action? I can admit I've never ran a Bergara but my Tikka CTR is rails on ball bearings. Is the Bergara a slicker action than the Tikka?
I don’t have a Tikka so I would go with it. I have heard good things and I would like to try one out.
I own several Bergaras and shot my friends' Tikkas, that's why I own Bergaras. Neither of their Tikkas come close to my HMR's .3 MOA groups with Federal Gold Medal Match 130gr. Berger factory ammo.
Dang, if the HMRs are printing .3s consistantly with factory ammo, not handloads, then we might as well just shut the door on custom guns and quit wasting the extra money on them
Only buy the Remington if you've got a 55 gallon drum of CLP or another oil/lubricant lying around to store the rifle inside of. If you don't do that it's going to have rust before 3 years have passed thanks to the changes in quality compared to the older guns. It'll also be a lot less smooth than a Bergara or a Tikka, and certainly won't shoot any better than either of those.
