>Are Tikka and Sako decent rifles?
Yup! Nothing wrong with them, they're solid rifles but a bit on the pricey side.
A lot of hunters right now are switching from the old miltary rifle calibers (7,92x57 .30-06 6,5x55) to .308winchester so finding a used .308 rifle at a decent price is difficult. Be prepared to spent at least 10 000kr.
The old calibers still work very well and ammo is widely available, it's just that 7,92 and .30-06 can have pretty harsh recoil so practicing with them for long periods can result in a purple shoulder.
You don't NEED to spend a ton of money on a good scope. Cheap scopes from quality manufacturers have gotten a lot better recently. So a 4000-5000kr Nikon, Leupold, or Zeiss will serve you well, just make sure the magnification is suitable for the type of hunting you're going to be doing.
I'd say if you spend those extra few thousand kronor on ammo rather than premium sight and you practice with your rifle.
You'll be a much better shot than if you had blow all that money and the scope and not spent time at the range.
Most rifles you find on the shelves these days are pretty good.
Just walk into a gun store and fingerfuck the rifles until you find one you like that is in your price range.
Just avoid buying an old German/Austrian rifle made by a company that hardly exists like Krico or Heym, if something break on that you'll have a very bad time finding spare parts.
I'd also stay away from anything made by Antonio-Zoli or Remington, both of those companies have really shitty quality control.
And don't buy any Husqvarna or Carl Gustaf rifle made after like 1979, those are NOT Swedish-made and the quality control varies wildly from model to model since they are just guns from about 12 different foreign manufacturers with Swedish names stamped on them.
