I hate to be that guy, but I guess I'm being that guy who is a little off topic. Please consider the 22 Creedmoor with a 1:8 twist. Depending on what freebore you get it can take a range of bullets an open you up to some very long range varmint hunting (So can a 22-250 speced the same but you...

All 5 of my factory Tikka rifles were threaded, for a suppressor, after the fact, by a Gun Smith. The worst shooting one, 6.5X55 with suppressor, still shoots a solid .5 moa with the others shooting even better with my reloads.

I am going with the Tikka Veil in 6.5 PRC. Great cartridge for all of you stated desires.

If you are using a regular keyboard while holding the alt key, type 248

So many great choices mentioned here. I guess my two choices would be .204 and 22 Creedmoor. Best of luck in whatever you choose!!!

I do neck turn to about a 90% clean-up and now I don't have to ask myself if it would help. I shoot 5 Tikka rifles which are know for accuracy and the worst one shoots .5 moa with my neck turned brass with the others being much better. Is it the Tikka, the prepped brass, I don't care, happy...

22 Creedmoor running Berger 85.5gr or Hornsby 88 ELDM, 1:8 twist barrel.

There is so much overlap with many of the suggested and what you already have. I would humbly suggest you consider the 25-284 shooting the 131 grain blackjacks. Look it up, run the ballistics, bet you will love it....

Which dies are you using if I may ask. Thanking you in advance!!!

If you want a 6.5 PRC then you will need a magnum bolt face. If it were me I would by a Tikka in 300 WSM (PRC not available until late next year) Then get a criterion Pre-fit from Solid Accuracy for it. Last time I talked to them said they would do a shouldered for the same price as a barrel nut...

To go to 6.5-284 all you will need is a barrel change, bolt stop kit and new magazine (Brownell's sells the bolt stop kits. It will run app. 100 fps slower than the 6.5 PRC. For the PRC, the things listed above plus the Gun Smith must open up the bolt face to a magnum size. Is the 100 fps...

Have you considered the 6BR? Based on your requirments, distance, wind bucking capability and low recoil I think this would be almost perfect and not so overbore that that you pull off target, reduced chance of dangerous through passes and great barrel life. You could simple rebarrel to .223...

I have two Tikkas in 204 and love them but very hard to find in the US. I own this gun (CZ 527) in 17 Hornet and really like it too, would not hesitate to have one in 204. The single set trigger is awesome and extremely accurate. You have to scroll down to find the .204 left hand and of...

Hard to beat this price and then upgrade as YOU desire. https://www.eurooptic.com/JRTXE312-Tikka-Tikka-T3x-Lite-223-Rem-SYN-224--barrel-MPN-JR.aspx

Anyone making the PID controllers already built for sale for this setup?
