Did you get a HMR or WSM in the vudoo? We could only WSM wait and wish, then have hopes dashed
She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...?
She's gone shootin..

I friend of mine has one of the rugers. It’s a nice rifle. I think I’d like to try one of the Franklin AR’s.

The Franklin is a hammer and runs like a Sewing Machine,despite being a Piston Gun. Hint.............

The little Tikka's are a lot of bang for the money. I see several in nearly every match I shoot, and they punch way above their price point.
Mine shoots exceptionally well and if I didn't already have 8 or 9 HMR's, I'd consider adding one to the stack.
One of the things that the previous owner of mine added before I got it was a Sterk bolt handle.
I love it and will add one to my next Tikka, whether it's a rimfire or a centerfire.

I recently installed two of these on a Sako P72 and a Bergara B14r and with only a hundred rounds out one each I am pleased so far. Time will tell. I think they fit the OP's needs. https://www.eurooptic.com/vortex-di...e-with-v-plex-reticle-moa-dbk-10017.aspx

Updates on the Tikka
Got a Mountain Tactical 30MOA extended rail, presented it to receiver and screwed lightly. Attached SWFA 10x42MQ with Warne horizontal rings, adjusted eye relief with rings spaced and marked where to chop rail... which was easily done.
Once rail was shorter, repeated the process, and used red (but really blue) loctite on screws and bottom of rail.
Process took about 20min, but would've been 10 had it not required mounting twice and cutting rail.
Gun shoots very consistently with Dead Air Mask 22 and CCI SV, also tried CCI Mini Mags and CCI subsonic. The subsonics had a significant drop compared to the others, but the only thing heard was the striking of the cartridge rim and the hitting of the metal gongs 100yds away.

Give cci semi auto quiets a try, they are the sweet spot in my opinion of keeping things crazy quiet with keeping impact close to the sv you are shooting.
