Doeslayer, Congrats, nice set up and your getting Deer of Angle accuracy now  I think it only gets better if you try 130/140 Accubonds and other 140 ie. Sierras. The throat is set up for the heavier bullets as is the twist. I'd try the RL22 also. If you are not using Lapua cases, highly recommend them for the ultimate out the box brass for accuracy.

Tikka T3 lite 6.5x55, one of my favorite rifles. Easy to get 3/4" groups and hovers just at 1/2" with its favorite loads. One of the best out of the box rifles I've ever had not tinkering bedding ............ just pulled it out of the box, lightened the trigger and went shooting. Great rifle for the price

Btw, I like that SS/Walnut above. Sometimes they feel better than syn. when mounted up, and look very nice also.

I have a T3 in a 6.5x55 that is the most accurate firearm I have, 1/2 inch groups. It is walnut and blued and loves Barnes TSX 120 grn. With RL-19 I get just under 3000 fps. It is a charm to carry and loaded with 140 NPT it is ready for bigger than deer. This one will not leave the family. Buckfever1
