    Maybe check the bedding first with a 5 shot group like that.

    I would remove the barrel straight away before you wear it out as you know it's a great shooter. Then replace with an expensive unknown barrel that you need to spend heaps on trying to get it to shoot. Then in a total fit of dis pear replace it with the known barrel you've had tucked away just in case. You would have spent lots of money, wasted time and ammo but will have ended up with a great shooting rifle pretty much the same as you started with

    Slight correction...6 shot group GB
    (Actually two different seating depths, but hey, Tikkas are rubbish )
