Deker 3,478 Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Any ideas/suggestions welcome......the Tikka is brand new ...so is this ammo, tried 4 rounds before I managed to get the bolt closed on the 5th round, and still very tight. Fired that and ejected fine...but what's this all about! Quote Link to post

Still waiting for the mod for this one...it's the new threaded Hunter with the shorter barrel, out last night with it...it's f*****g loud and the flame out the front of it was incredible in the dark!!!

Mr_Logic 5 Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 It certainly was very impressive! I do expect it to bed down though, my RWS did, it's absolutely fine now but when I first fired Prvi I thought I would need a wrench to close the bolt! Quote Link to post
landrover 6 Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 try the hornady ammo it's a lot better, 58gr and 95 gr have very little change in poi through my .t3 hunter in .243, no need to rezero for either, federal 85 gr are also good in mine, 100grs not very good in any make of ammo hope it helps,but as others have said bed it in Quote Link to post
