Yeah, its a dilemma when it comes to threading a classy rifle, but I wouldn't even have a .22 without a suppressor nowadays. Our hearing (and other people's and our dogs') is too precious.

At least Nathan you can still use hearing protection at the range and will only fire the odd single shot unprotected at animals I guess.

I will post up some photo's of it later. I reckon its been the buy of my lifetime so far. Im actually thinking its too good to take hunting. Clearly its never been bush. It came with the original box , Packaging , Owners manual and 3 magazines , VX 3 2.5x8x36 and Rings. Its in beautiful condition. It looks like its rarely been fired and definately a safe queen.

They look about right. Mine are doing 3100 fps and drop about 1.75 inch at 200 yds

I was referring to the difference between the metric and imperial measurements. 11.1cm low at 200 vs 3.2” low at 200

Its a wood blued Tikka M595 with the original open sights as well as a fantastic half bolt and one of the crispest triggers ive felt.

Here’s a pic of it when it arrived yesterday before having the scope mounted

Cripes. Looks brand spanking.

@Nathan F I have one similar m55 in 222. Probably my favourite rifle to be fair. Enjoy getting it out in the hills.

Here it is. As much as I’m a fan of suppressors I think it would be sacrilegious to cut this -

Sacrilegious methinks...
