I’ve got a tikka 595 in .223 that I’ve had since the late 90’s. I’ve used it for coyote hunting and general vermin shooting on and off through the years but it has been in the closet for several years now. I have an interest in using the rifle again but cannot get excited about using it with its slow twist rate and being forced to use low BC bullets. I thought about having it rebored to 6x45 (legal for deer here) but the older proprietary tikka mags and stock make that a little difficult. Or I can put a fast twist barrel on it but again same issues as having it rebored. Or I can try to sell it and get something that I find more interesting.
What are your thoughts on this? What would you do?
