Congrats. Tikka are good guns.

 

However, if you'd wanted Stainless Fluted I'd have had a look at the Browning X Bolt as well:

Noye sure if you can get it in .222.

I have the x-bolt in 6.5x55 was not a lover from the off with the trigger and had to have some work on it , but now shoots a treat got the pull down to 2lb. Still a heavy lump to carry around with a T12 mod though.

Enjoy you wont go wrong with that set up, just need to get the reloading gear now

Don't get me going charlie ffs, already thinking about it, but will see how it performs with factory loads first i.e. ppu. The 6.5 shoots very well with ppu and they so cheap i cannot justify laying money out for reloading equipment, £11.50 for 20 and shooting sub 1" @ 100mtrs and sub 3.5" @ 300mtrs. So if the .222 shoots as well with them, happy days.

Get some gear and I promise you wont look back, the difference between well tailored homeloads and ppu will startle you
