New to me Tikka boar hunter

I purchased a fine Tikka Boar Hunter 30-06 here on the fire from a fine Gentleman Spence1875. I put a Nightforce SHV compact on it. Now for load development. To be continued.

You'll find load development for a Tikka to consist of putting primer, and powder in a cartridge case, inserting your choice of bullet, and putting it all in the gun and pulling the trigger.

About the size of it.

You can made it simple than that. Go buy a box of quality OEM ammo, load, test fire 3 rounds, adjust scope, go kill stuff...

I have two…..

I have loaded 59 grains of IMR 4350 with a 150 partition for almost 50 years, used this in a dozen rifles. It has shot well in all of them, loaded ballistic and Accubonds too. They are all great.

I like the camo stock

I think you’ll like that rifle. I was very close to buying it. Thanks for saving me!!
