[QUOTE="gillettehunter, post: 2017316, member: 25760"] You'll get plenty of suggestions from others, but here is a start: Make sure action screws are properly torqued. Check base and rings screws. Switch out the scope and try a known good one. Change bullets. Probably a Hammer or 165 grain TTSX . Try another powder and maybe primer. Clean the barrel really well. I had a Tika over 10 yrs ago in a .300 WSM. 1/2 MOA until we got to about shot number 10 or 11. Then the groups opened up to 3 MOA. I'd look at a different powder too if your still not getting anywhere with the other changes. Be sure and try some different seating depths with your bullets. Hammers are not too seating depth sensitive. The TTSX's often seem to like a long jump. Good luck Bruce [/QUOTE]
