[QUOTE="Elkeater, post: 1384565, member: 103670"] Your tikka in '06 will probably be fine out to 500m. I currently have a ruger m77 in .300 win mag that has been reliable out to 500 yards with nothing but a 3-9x Nikon prostaff and a BDC reticle. That being said I upgraded the stock to Hogue overmold, got a timney trigger and a vortex viper hs lr 4-16x scope. Total cost on the upgrades has been $700. That rifle will now shoot well to 600 yards with 180gr accubonds. I started messing with some 215 berger hybrids but haven't had a chance to test them. My point is that to shoot to say 5 or 600m as long as your tikka shoots sub MOA to start with some good glass is really probably all you need. And maybe some high BC bullets like bergers. [/QUOTE]
