First check the chambering and then check whats pulking the trigger.
I reiterate only a thought?

Mate was having issues sighting in, he was getting 4" groups! I got it down to 3" (after doing 0.6" with my own rifle), then told him to try some different ammo next time. Trigger was heavy and vague too, but I expect it can be adjusted.

Tikkas are ok, but some people seem to think they're something amazing when really they're just middle of the road. Handled another mates wood/stainless T3 Hunter, much nicer shape/balance/feel than the plastic ones but haven't fired that one.

The Mussel Velocity is Faster than most other Bullets Including the 2506, Being Faster than many Magnums with Less Kick. In Fact is was produced by Winchester as the Official Improvment on the 3006 and with 130 Grain Bullets, Shoots Flatter than a 308 Norma Magnum

Helpful?

Hey Tobes, did you nick that off tard me???????

Taihape and surrounds is filled with dickheads that shoot paper with flash rfles and scopes.
There hasnt been a deer shot in tis area for 7.5 years but we have an active deerstalkers association that encourages paper shooting where you get trophys and prize money so we can buy meat to feed our familys.
Little do you know but you have driven through some of the best hunting in nz .
Feel welcome to call in to our humble town and sample our hospitality but please supply your own fire wood.
Regards Andy

Just been to the range and now home.
Sitting here getting bored so thought id crank this thread up againAttachment 28430

yep you would have to sell both rifles as a package nearly brought 2 tikka 595's like that a few months ago 308 and 7mm-08 using one bolt
id take it to someone local save courier costs

you can check head space yourself with common household stuff but its pretty crude so a gunsmith is best

Jesus !
Go away for 2 days and i have a whole lot of catching up to do.
