    Interesting feedback guys. There is much more to the story than I am letting on. How would you feel if said rifle had a different twist rate than advertised?

    Its all sorted now though. The shop I bought it from happily took it back and sorted everything out promptly(very happy with their service). I picked up a new Tikka 7mm-08 today. Very happy now!

    As for the NZ distributors of the returned rifle...........they are douche bags, ha!
