If you are using TTSX, in all likelihood the rifle is gonna like them jumped a ways out, as Barnes recommends starting at 50 thou off. I have loaded lots of Barnes and never found a gun that would not shoot them very well way off the lands.

As well, I have loaded for many, many Tikkas and mag length was never a hindrance to finding great accuracy.
