I got 600 rounds through it so far and no issues. I check with a bore scope. I did drop the charge down and now am running around 2875 f/s. I haven’t experienced any accuracy issues with either.

Something about drab greens, black and greys look phenomenal to me. Building a custom Tikka as well. I ended up in a MDT chassis with a heavy ss Bartlein barrel. Thinking i found the right pick of a rifle smith in my area this week. Hope to leave the barrel with him this weekend. Not cheap considering the average going rate to rebarrel a rifle. But sure dont want to leave that up to someone who doesn't have that particular machineing skill in the bag. My Tikka has served me well all throughout its transformation from a lite hunting rifle into more of a tac, target precision rifle. It had a few different loadings, factory and reloads that were 1/2 moa or better.
