[QUOTE="GHDIII, post: 1953524, member: 112499"] I'm probably not adding much to the conversation here but I put a 1:9 barrel on my Tikka T3 xlite in .270 win and it's a laser out to 300 yards with factory ammo. Using Winchester silver ballistic tip, or the Sig Elite I can keep groups solidly under 1/2 moa. It really seems to like cheaper ammo too. Especially American Whitetail. Even the cheap ammo hovers just over 1/2 moa when I'm paying attention. The build is a $600 Tikka that I got on sale a Cabela's for $400. An MDT LSS chassis that was on sale for $225 and a Douglas Barrel. My point is that this build has convinced me. I really can't see any reason to not slap on a new barrel instead of buying a new platform is cost prohibitive. [/QUOTE]
