First off I wasn't knocking tikka or anything else,I have many rifles in winchester,remington,browning and savage.Some shoot very good out of the box some didn't.I was referring to the tikka I bought.
I have tried it with many loads that I reloaded myself,I very seldom even shoot factory loads.The tikka has been tried with different scopes like Burris signature,nikon,and lepould.The group in the pic wasn't the best group I have shot with it,it was the group I shot at the same time as I did the ruger.But the best group wasn't as good as I wanted it.
For mr. minnfinn I am very capable of shooting tiny groups,if the rifle will shoot them.Maybe I can get you to come down and give me some lessons.I usually shoot one to three days aweek.
This is not the first tikka that I have shot,a fellow at the range let me shoot his tikka varmit in 308 a couple weeks ago and I shot four 3-shot groups at 100 yds and all four were one holers.He has 2 sakos and 2 tikkas in 300 wsm I have never shot the sakos or the tikkas much but have shot a couple one holers with his 300wsm tikkas,they shot better than his sakos.
Seriously I would like to get the tikka to shoot good,I like the feel and how it handles.But to me they are no better than the remingtons,brownings,and savage that I have.
Below is the first group shot after the scope was zeroed in with a out of the box browning useing factory ammo.
