If you're a 'take it outa the box n shoot it kinda guy', id check all the screws mate...scope mounting & action screws for tension-or at least tight.
Check the barrel is sitting centre of barrel channel-if not take it out & put it together properly.
I just say this as ive had 4 rifles in the last year from that manufacturor & action screw tension was all over the place-some too tight, some flopping around like big mammas upturned bowl of jelly, & barrel not centred on 3 of them out of the box.
If you using original Tikka rings, buy replacement screws for them immediately (& get me some)...you will need them one day...!
By the sound of it (hopefully) your lgs will do all this for you...
