Oh BTW, before I get flamed for it, I'm a broke student who's getting married in a couple days, so I have to re-tape and re-use my targets as much as possible. 
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Glad you got your Tikka figured out Jordan! Congrats on the marriage and I feel you pain as a broke student, taping and reusing targets, especially when trying to figure out what's wrong with a rifle, is just fine.

Thanks Selmer, I appreciate the support. Really, I do. I'm kind of nervous these days. I'm broke, getting married, and a full-time student, but luckily I have stock piled enough ammo for hunting season.

BTW, I think that the Tikka really just needed about 75 rounds through it before it decided to settle down and shoot. I'm sure switching the scope and polishing the crown helped, but in the end, I believe it just needed some break-in in order to show what it can really do!
