[QUOTE="7mmTikkaShooter, post: 2018233, member: 92915"] Is it still the factory stock? I think Tikkas for the most part are wonderful but the factory stocks might be considered Tupperware by some. Maybe check to see how much barrel contact you're getting. I've found a fair bit of stock contact in the Tikka barrel channel, especially after 4-5 rounds when the barrel warmed up. Obviously that change in shooting condition could cause stuff to really open up. A little elbow grease and some sand paper or a dremel tool might be worth a try. I did see improvements in doing so, but eventually replaced the stock with a better one anyway. You should also double check that the recoil lug is seating correctly into the action. Maybe it's not quite right? Just a couple of thoughts. Easy stuff to check. [/QUOTE]
