To do my best to be your enabler...this was from my last trip to the range with my CTR 6.5CR, the gun you linked to, I only have a $600 Vortex HS-T on it, shooting regular Hornady BTHP not the ballistic tips, 1000 yards from the bench, 3=7 mph cross wind that day, swirling, even with my blind shaky ass pulling the trigger on top of a sandbag...11 for 12, the rifle will do it. My only mod to the rifle was to change the rail to a 20moa version.

Allow me to pile on: Whittaker is one of the best shops in the country, IMO. The GM of the store is an all-around great guy, and a total gun/hunting nut. He's active on 24HourCampfire and will respond to emails and PMs. I've never received or heard of better service than they provide.

Sigh. I really should stop clicking on links to Tikkas, until after my budget stabilizes after retirement, next year. Plus, I still hope Tikka expands the models it makes in lefty configuration.

Bumping just to add a neat little write-up I saw for a custom GP rifle.
