I picked up a almost new Tikka Hunter 6.5x55 this fall. Off a bag of cat litter on the hood on my car, I sighted in my new Nikon Prostaff 3x9- 40 scope at 100 yards. I was shooting 2 inch groups. After I felt sighted in--just for fun--I paced off 200 yards and tried 3 more shots--I could've covered the holes with a quarter. This is with a hot barrel, new gun, factory (Hornady 139g) ammo. I was amazed. A week later, needless to say, this gun dropped it's first deer in its tracks. I'll buy another Tikka 6.5x55 for my wife or son one day--when I find one for sale.
NEVER heard of groups going from 2inches at 100 yards to being able to cover with a quarter at 200. That must be some majical bullet.
