Lots of ways to skin this cat, here's just one:
Step 1) Buy one of these https://www.eurooptic.com/JRTXG370-Tikka-Tikka-T3x-Laminated-7mm-Rem-Mag-S-S-243--barr.aspx
Step 2) Call these guys: https://www.longriflesinc.com/index.html
Tell them what you want: like a new 7mm barrel threaded for...
2) I ran a 30 MOA on two Tikka's. I had a Tikka Varmint .223 with a Ken Farrell 30 MOA base and a Steiner T5Xi 3-15x50mm. I'm currently using a Tikka CTR in 260 Rem. with the factory 0 MOA base in Burris XTR Signature Rings with inserts giving me 30 MOA of cant. I've got a Bushnell LRHS...
I love it when somebody says both MIL adjusting and MOA adjusting scopes get you to the same place, and one system is not better than the other.
But everybody forgets about scope design. An elevation turret only has so many splines. So a 10 mil turret, that adjusts 0.1 Mils per click has 100...
35 Mils is 17 Mils up and 17 Mils down. A 20 MOA base is 5.8 Mils. A 30 MOA base is 8.6 Mils. So with the 20 MOA base you will have approx. 22.8 Mils of up elevation available (and 11.2 Mils down) . With the 30 MOA you will have 25.6 Mils of up available (and 8.4 Mils down, so nowhere near...
Frank,
Take your time, enjoy LV and the Shot Show, we can soldier along just fine until you do have the time. We're getting all this shit for free, so let's just STFU, and the let Frank sort it all out......
I understand some reluctance when it comes Burris XTR Signature Rings. I thought that too before I used them. If fact I was advised to use them by a noted hater of all things Burris, who used to grace these pages under the name of Nobody. Long time posters pre-2010 will well remember that...

Medium 34mm 1.10" High works with 56mm scopes every time, as long as your not putting your action into a chassis with an AR style full length fore end. Then you will need AR height rings.
Here's the Math I did: Kahles 6-24x56 has a 62mm OD Objective. That's 2.44". Half of that is 1.22". Add...
You might with a 30 MOA base. That's why I recommended the Burris XTR Signature Rings. The plastic inserts let you choose between 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 or 40 MOA of cant. With a 30 MOA base it's fixed if it doesn't work your screwed.

You only had 18 Mils to start with: which means you had 9 mils up and 9 mils down, that's before zeroing. You apparently used 4.1 mils up to zero. If you used a 20 MOA base you would have about 9.6 mils of up elevation. If you could get a 30 MOA base ( or alternatively Burris XTR Signature...
Try a pair of these: I have a set from the same vendor for my 30mm Bushnell 3-12x44m LRHS and I've been very impressed by the fit, finish and utility of these sub-$100. ring sets. Gun Dock has the best price I've found on these particular items. In the past I've used Badger, Seekins...
What's the matter with the stock the CTR came in?? 99% of them shoot better than any sub-$1k factory should, and a deer doesn't care what your stock looks like. For a hunting rig and casual paper punching the factory plastic handle works just fine.
I understand the desire for something...
