Sweet. I'm eyeing one of these off in 7mm-08 as a pig and small deer rifle for interstate trips, havent picked up my sambar rifle yet, addictive hobby! Let us know how it handles.
reload is better, 2x 5 shot at 50 meters during zeroing the scope, I am lucky first batch 46 GR 8208 168 GR match projectile's result is better than I thought
battue is short and light, the trigger is not the best compares to sako's and I forgot to bring my bench rest so got one from the shooting range, it was not very stable as well...

tikka battue's iron sight is a little too thick(good thing is easy to see at low light) but still can blow the soft drink can at about 25 meters easily
2-7x33 or 3-9x40 scope looks alright on it and works fine
TBF 150gr projectile, Trail Boss 16.4gr powder, CCI normal large rifle primer (my mistake, forgot to charge to magnum primer) OAL 3.185, surprisingly good 50 meters 5x

a friend gave me 3.5kg 2208 and the TBF 150 projectile seems no supply issue, so give them a try this is 3 shot, looks ok, will try 5 shot to double check 150gr TBF projectile, 48.2gr AR2208 CCI primer OAL 3.185
