I have used the 168 grain ZMax for hunting and it has worked very well. Even shot a fox with one and it expanded just fine.

Based on my old 1500 which I purchased (and later sold) in 2006, it is laid and bounds ahead. The 2 stage trigger is new as you all know but there is no creep.. At all! This is such an improvement in my old 1500, the trigger had so much creep and didn't really break cleanly. It's not my tikka but it's pretty damn good for the price.
I'm hopeful this thing can produce good results. Things are looking good.

This one came with tags claiming moa guarantee etc etc. Not sure if they tidy the trigger on this one more than the others or if they all come with this tag nowadays. Either way, it definitely is creep free and I'm happy.
