Ive shot so many sub 2" 500 yd groups with a stock tikka I've lost count. Mount a scope and go hunt

I'd love to hear the details on the sweet Tikka "shooting system(s)" capable of those sub-1/2 MOA 500 yard groups....
Tikka 6.5X55 swede
SWFA fixed 6 MQ
Warn Steel 30mm rings
Lapua brass
Hornady 143 eld-x
47 gr. Reloader 17
CCI 200 primer
Ammo loaded to less than .001 run out
COAL 3.182
.005 off the lands
I'm thinking GregW has likely seen some of what I'm talking about
Good luck

Too many sub 2" groups to count at 500.... with a 6x scope... on a sporter weight gun.... it's getting deep.
What's the first rule of holes?
If you really think a fixed 6 won't perform at the 500 yd line then you don't know what you think you don't know! I'm not even close to the first person to do this with a "sporter weight" rifle.
The rifle, scope, brass, bullet, etc combination will do it "IF" the shooter is capable.
The new hornady bullets IMO are some of the most accurate bullets I've ever used
I'm impressed! Apparently your not! Good for you!
