Tikka T3x roughtech ember or Seekins Havak PH2

[Ag28]

Gentlemen I'm looking for a new hunting rig in 6.5 creedmoor and have narrowed it down to these two.
Any thoughts on which one?

The seekins is a far superior rifle all the way around. On every component.

I'd go with the Tikka any day...far superior.

I own a Tikka CTR in 308 and have handled a Seekins Havak in 300 WM. Both shot quite well. The build quality of the Seekins is a notch above.

Both nice rifles, but the Seekins gets vote.

closest thing I've had was a Sako A7

T3x and PH2 are not at the same price point. Sako S20 is closer to the PH2 in price from Beretta and is in my eye superior if the weight is not to much.

Tx3 and Seekins are a tossup in my eyes

Stock Seekins
Action Tikka
Trigger - I will take the tikka over the Timney EH I have had both triggers

Barrel and accuracy - I have handled but not tested the seekins

I've never owned or handled Seekins. I have 3 Tikkas, one is the Roughtek. All are fantastic shooters, get hunted hard and have been great in the field with Leupold VX5 HD glass. I shoot factory ammo and out to 500 yards don't hesitate.

What's the price difference?

Tikka gets more for the ember color about $1200 total. Seekins is around $1800. I looked at the Seekins hard when I last went buying but did not go that way. I do like the integrated picatinny rail on the seekins over the dove tail on the Tikka. Everytime I handled the Seekins action I was assured that it would loosen up with use and I bet they would as they felt quality and tightly spec.
