    Range Report Warner Tool Flat Line Projectile 122gr 6.5 Variant

    So yesterday I loaded up the last 4 bullets with the following: brass: Lapua primer: 210M powder: 39.0gr Varget coal: 2.830" I had cleaned the hell out of my barrel and then fired a few strings before firing the last 4 solids. This time I was able to get a group around 1.9" at 100 yards...

    Range Report Warner Tool Flat Line Projectile 122gr 6.5 Variant

    Thanks Lowlight and Dan I really do appreciate they information and advise you gave me. I was so hoping they would work. I did hit the speed i was hoping for very easily. If anybody does get these to work in a factory Tikka CTR .260 barrel please update the thread or PM me. Jason

    Range Report Warner Tool Flat Line Projectile 122gr 6.5 Variant

    I'm throwing in the towel and giving up. I've tried 5 different powders and different seating depths and the best I could do was maybe a four inch group at 100 yards. In case someone asks, yes I did do some load tests with information provided by Dan. They just won't seem to stabilize in my...

    Range Report Warner Tool Flat Line Projectile 122gr 6.5 Variant

    I shot another couple of charges with IMR 4166 in my .260 Tikka CTR. The rounds were all over the place. I'm going to switch to Varget to see if I can get them to group together.

    Rifle Scopes Revic Optics is launching

    I asked this at the convention this past weekend and was told they probably will have Mil down the road but MOA at release.

    260 Load Data with Mag Friendly COALs???

    One bullet I tested was the Hornady 140 ELD-M. You could probably get the same results with their 143 ELD-X.

    260 Load Data with Mag Friendly COALs???

    I've pretty much found any 139 - 142gr bullet with 42.0gr H4350 loaded at a COAL of 2.800" in my .260 will shoot sub moa easily.

    MPA Masterpiece Arms Awesome Customer Service

    You're lucky. I waited 6 months for a simple plain black chassis and finally had to get a refund because they never could give me a clear date on when to expect it. I even waited four months before calling about it.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Damn Juggerxxx....that is sweet!!! Is that the 15.5" handguard? What barrel length do you have? I'm hoping to get an XLR carbon for my CTR later this year.

    Berger 130 otm 4350 load

    For my 20" Tikka CTR I was using 44gr H4350 with the Berger 130 OTM. No pressure issues and I probably could have gone higher but never did. The load was running just over 2700 fps.

    783 Build

    Like others have said, aftermarket items for the 783 model are pretty much nonexistent. If you have a ton of extra money then just do yourself a favor and buy a nice custom rifle. I on the other hand don't have a ton of extra money and have never really shot past 100 yards. A few months ago...

    How many rounds through a chronograph for best results?

    This is what I do as well. I periodically retest to make sure things are still good.

    GO GET 'EM...Remington 700s at Walmart for $297

    They had this same deal at my Walmart last week. I went back a few days later and it was gone. I should have picked it up when I first saw it.

    using H322 in a 223

    I love H322 with heavier .223 bullets. Here is my load for 69gr SMK. The key in my rifle is the primer. Either of these two produce great results. If I use others they aren't so good. brass: LC or WCC powder: 22.9gr H322 bullet: 69gr SMK primer: Wolf small rifle magnum or Federal...
