What’s your velocity? 2550? Can’t quite see what the chrono saysI recently rebuilt my 20” tikka CTR in 6.5 creed. Chopped/fluted the barrel at 16.5”, new high desert bottom metal and sporter mags, stocky’s tikka hunter VG stock. Previously the barrel had 450rds on it with no cleaning. I ran some patches soaked in C4 through the bore to ensure any debris from machining were removed, and fired 8rds to adjust my zero prior to shooting this group.

2505 with 41.5gr of h4350 pushing 147’s. Took it out to the 900yd line last week in some heavy winds and it didn’t hurt my feelings!What’s your velocity? 2550? Can’t quite see what the chrono says
What’s your honest opinion on the stockys vgh? I’m thinking about putting one on my tikka and another for a 223 build. Would you go that route again?I recently rebuilt my 20” tikka CTR in 6.5 creed.

Don’t know that I’ve ever posted a 10 shot group from my 22GT. It’s got ~800 rounds through it at this point. Returned from a deer hunt and decided to check zero. The Leupold appears to have held surprisingly. Did not come off the gun during the string fired 1 after the other with no cool down.
