[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1482824, member: 103303"] What about some custom ammo? If you're not keen on reloading how about sending the rifle to a professional and having them do some load development for you? 3" at 500yd is pretty close to half MOA. You and the gun can both shoot! I can't imagine being able to improve on that with factory ammo. As far as the gun itself is concerned I would not change a thing until I felt I needed to. If you are just looking to personalize the rifle, by all means, look into Tikka Performance/mountain tactical. You can bling out your bottom metal, bolt handle/shroud.... If you are truly wanting to shoot smaller groups though, I don't see it happening without custom ammunition. A new stock might be nice, but find a load that really sings in the rifle first. You may find out that you could use more OAL in your magazine. You may not. This could affect what 'bottom metal' you use and in turn affect the stock. As great a board as this is, and there have been some good responses here, my suggestion is to start a conversation with your rifle and let it tell you what it wants. [USER=31823]@snookntarpon[/USER] nice rifle. Curious what that configuration weighs..? [/QUOTE]
