[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2078641, member: 1951"] Tikka’s are generally accurate rifles, but there are always mellons. You have a 308 bolt face and it should be a good action. I would get it in a lathe and check bolt face and action face run out as well as trueness of the lugs. If no red flags, I would build on it. With that bolt face, the 280AI, 6.5 Weatherby RPM, 6.5 thru 338 Sherman are all very fast options. Since you don’t reload, the first 2 make more sense. I’m also interested in the secret to making Tikka’s shoot?? [/QUOTE]
