[QUOTE="gillettehunter, post: 595893, member: 25760"] I have a couple of Tikka T-3's. My .300 WSM copper fouls quickly. 2 years ago before going to Kyrgyzstan for Ibex I found a good load for that gun. Got 1 1/2 inch group at 300 yards. No work on action or barrel all factory. After about 10 shots the groups double in size. Lately I've been using bore tech to clean it. My Tikka's have the clips so it limits how far out you can seat your bullets. Mine jump a bit to get to the lands. I got my best groups by using Barnes TTSX which seem to generally like to jump into the lands. Some bullets like Berger usually don't like to jump that much. If you reload at all try the Barnes bullets. They are also available in factory loads. Be a good bullet to try. Keep it clean and try several different brands of ammo. Ditto on changing the scope. Good luck. Bruce [/QUOTE]
