[QUOTE="Shifty05, post: 2851319, member: 127164"] First things to look at when a gun doesn’t shoot especially a Tikka 1. Proven Scope 2. Proper Torque on scope mounts and rings 3. Action screws need to be torqued to 44inlbs All that said out of 8 Tikkas only one that has ever given me grief is my wife’s 7mm-08 Compact. So far all I have found to be accurate is 139 Interlock in Hornadys Whitetail special factory or 150gr Nosler accubonds over Varget. With a 20in barrel it pushes the AB at 2750 with a max load under an in at 200. Possible that it loves heavier bullets but im happy with that load and don’t see the need to change. I will stay that it DOES NOT like super high bc style bullets like Berger VLDs. Can’t seat them out long enough before it won’t fit in the mag. [/QUOTE]
