I've always been skeptical about his shooting...seems as rough as guts to me. Then there's that American insistence on measuring accuracy with a fast fired 5 shot group which you can't expect a thin profile hunting barrel to cope with.
If any of my Tikkas wander outside 1" cooling between shots then I'm having a really bad day.
