    Reshot the Tikka 6.5PRC in 24 degrees today with a Swaro Z5 on it. Reloader 26 is proving very stable from the single digit winter weather when last shot.

    A mate had his new Tikka in the same caliber - different model - and it had been bore sighted by H&F Timaru. Photo shows his first 3 shots, not far of 0.5MOA. He is shooting Hornady factory 143gn ELDX ammo and from his 22" barrel we got 2800fps. It will speed up as the barrel breaks in.
