[QUOTE="woodbnek, post: 1504404, member: 54358"] Some rifles are tough to get and develop the right recipe for........I had a similar experiance with a .338 WM years ago. I ended up re cutting the crown and still ithe accuracy was not satisfactory. I then ended up replacing the barrel after trying a boat load of powder and bullets with out success. The new barrel was the ticket. i also have had to re cut the crown to fix a few orher problem children. It has been my experiance that todays rifles will almost always shoot well as long as the prceedures I described are followed. Rifles that do not shoot well usually have problems with either bedding of the action in the stock or the Barrel itself. Some barrels just don’t make the cut. If I were you, before you goi any farther, contact Tikka/Berreta USA and exspress your concerns. It might save you some hair, $ and time. Please, Keep us updated. [/QUOTE]
