Top of the line bare bow is $1200-1400 new vs Tikka T3x is $1199 at Cabelas.
I would not consider a Tikka as top of the line. Most expensive bow right now is the Hoyt Carbon RX1 which will be just over $2000. Lots of mid range guns are more expensive than that. Also your most expensive bow hunting sight even with all the bells and whistles is $600. That's where a decent rifle scope starts.
I do both and find archery much cheaper especially when you factor in ammo cost vs the cost of a dozen arrows which can be used over and over again for 1000's of shots.
