Thanks 22250rem. That is exactly the rifle I have. It has the cheap Ram-Line stock. I also removed some of the plastic in the barrel channel and mine shoots great. I also have a Timney trigger. I thought it shot so well it deserved a good trigger. I love the 6.5X55 caliber and I am going to try to find a Tikka in that caliber in the next few years. Yes I thinking I probably don't want to muscle up on it but then I was wondering since it is a military rifle that the specs might be kind of high. I will read the links and see what is posted. Thanks again.
