Well, I had a CZ 550 American in 6.5x55. The stock felt clumsy and more suited for use as a club. Sold it and lost no sleep.
I have 4 Tikkas now (counting the recent acquisition of a T1X
). A t3 Lite in .270 Winchester that shoots 5 round groups of 2.75" at 500 meters and has been my silhouette rifle until I was able to develop some fine loads for the T3 Hunter (wood stock) in 6.5x55. It's nearly as good as the .270 with less of a beating. Then there's the T3 Hunter in .30-06. Not quite the performance or accuracy of either of the other two, but still within MOA and kills deer dead. Really dead.
I really like the Tikkas. They feed so smooth from that single stack magazine you want to check to see if a round actually went into the chamber. The adjustable trigger is excellent with no creep and an exceptionally clean break for a factory unit.
Other experience I have with similar price point rifles are Savage 110 (not as refined as either the Winchester ot Tikka), Browning a-bolt (excellent accuracy and relatively light weight), Remington 700 (a bit on the heavy side, accurate), and the Weatherby Vanguard (accurate, very heavy - built like a tank).
Of the two you are asking about, I do not think you can go wrong. I suggest you handle both, work the actions, feel the triggers, cycle some rounds and (if possible) fire a few rounds to see how they fit. The fit and finish of the Tikkas have always been top drawer for a production grade rifle. The new Winchesters are just as good and maybe a titch better.
Personally, I like the looks of the Winchester's Schnabel fore end stock better than the Tikka wood stocks. It's an aesthetics thing for me. Both are excellent performers. Buy the one that talks to YOU. If you don't, you will probably wish you had.
