Guy, I have had this rifle for 29 years now. It has taken a few moose, several black bear and my first woodland caribou over those years, at ranges of 5 to 225 yards. I have used the Winchester factory 200 gr Power Point ammo for all of its hunting to date, and it will produce 1" groups...

Looking forward to your shooting results with it!

Have a great day!

Beautiful bull! Nice mass in those horns. Can't wait to go back and hunt a Southern Greater kudu... Best of luck on your quest for a bushbuck!

I have Leupold QR rings and bases on my Marlin 375S for its Leupold VX-R 2-7x33.

That'll do! Now go hunting!

My wife has figured out that when I am buying components for a rifle I don't have, it means that a new rifle is coming at some point!

Will have to try that 150 gr BT load in my 7mm-08! Rebarreled Win Model 88 w/ 20" Benchmark barrel.

Have also had great on-game performance with Partitions, from deer to bison, in cartridges ranging from 6.5 Swede tp 338 Win Mag. Never had one let me down.

In your CZ, you should be able to go to 64-65K for pressure...but if you are starting to get sticky bolt lift, you may not get there in your rifle. AccuBonds also tend to like more jump to the lands than what you are trying. You might want to start at 0.050" and to see if they will perform...

As I would have only been almost 7 months old, I was probably crawling around most of the time...

Cool to see. Yes...looks hungry... Adolescent that hasn't yet learned enough to be as successful as they need to keep weight on...or a nursing female? Best keep the pets inside! And the kids/grandkids close.

Tikka has a good reputation for accuracy. No questioning that. But as with any rifle, there is no guarantees as to what the particular rifle is going to like in terms of the ammunition, whether it be factory or handloaded. Trial and error there to find the best combination for the rifle. Many...

And then there is the 358 STA! (Shooting Times Alaskan) It will drive a 250 gr bullet to close to 3000 fps!

Appears that the URP will be just a little more efficient.

This will depend on the individual rifle, as to which IS more accurate. I have some very accurate rifles with both types of stocks. The potential for accuracy probably lies with the synthetic stock as it will be potentially more stable regardless of the ambient weather conditions e.g., wet...

FOTIS, Well, I did shoot the factory Nosler 140 gr AccuBond ammo in the two rifles and can provide an answer as to what I found in my 20" barreled mannlicher stocked rifle vs the 24" barreled single shot rifle: 20" barrel produced 2353 fps, where the 24" barrel produced 2419 fps with this ammo...

Does it provide the option for a suppressed vs non-supressed barrel? If so, what difference does it make?

If I recall correctly, they average a deer a week... But cougars are known for going on killing sprees...as some sheep farmers can attest to. Makes one wonder if that occurs on wild prey too...but as they are not usually in pens probably doesn't occur as frequently...

Gerry, probably a good thing there is no cell service where you wanted to set your trail cams; we cannot use the ones equipped for cell service here in BC. (unless they have changed the regs)
