    RL TS 15.5 shoots well in my rifle. This is from a 7.5 twist 22" barrel. Temp was + 24 F. Shot 3 was operator error. MV and SD are for 10 shots.

    Thanks. It appears I need to tweak the mag spring a bit. I will do that.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I'm having feeding issues with my Tikka T3X CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor. Rounds 9 and 10 will not feed. The bullet tip is not high enough to chamber. Suggestions? Thanks.

    Great stuff. Thanks! What's been your experience with the "TS" feature of RL 15.5? Here in the Big Empty, I can expect to shoot in temps from + 10F to + 85F. Thanks again.

    Sir - Thanks for your note. It appears my post was unclear. My bad. I'm not chasing velocity. My interest is in reducing my SD and ES. In my limited 6GT experience, it seems that's easier done with Varget than with H4350 - at least with 105 - 112 grain bullets.

    Thanks for the feedback. The barrel is 21.5" from Straight Jacket Armory. My sense is that Varget is the optimal powder for the 6GT. I'm not sure it's worth my while to use anything else.

    I loaded up 10 rounds of the 112 Matchburner over 36.3 grains H4350. The results were mediocre. I've had much better numbers with Varget.

    I have a box of 112 Match Burners to experiment with. Any suggestions using Varget or H4350? Thanks.

    I've been using mostly Varget. What powder charge works best for you with the 112 MB?

    Looking for an accurate compact bolt gun in .308

    I have the Tikka T3X CTR 20" in 6.5. If the 308 shoots anything like it, you'll have a very accurate rifle at a great price. Check Euro Optic for prices. Last I checked, the CTR was about $1075 net.

    Impact Prefit Barrel in a Surgeon Action

    I have an Oklahoma vintage Surgeon 591 action. I would like to replace the existing barrel with a 20" carbon barrel in 6GT. I've read conflicting posts on whether an Impact prefit will "work" on the Surgeon 591. Any updates to this thread? If a prefit will "work", I'd appreciate your...

    Surgeon Action?

    I recognize this is an old thread. Sorry. Does a Surgeon 591 action drop in to the KRG Bravo? Are any modifications required? Thanks.

    Tikka T3X TacA1-223 discontinued?

    I couldn't find a Tikka T3X CTR in 223. My solution was to buy this: Tikka T3X Varmint 223 I will have my friendly neighborhood gunsmith cut the barrel to 20" and thread. I also purchased a KRG Bravo and Area 419 rail. I'm anxious to get it all put together and send some rounds down range...

    Any shooting position is allowed. Most folks shoot from a bench. Scoring is the shooter's last 10 shots. Keeping 10 consecutive shots sub MOA from a light rifle is "challenging ". Great intel in this thread. Much appreciated.

    Sorry I was unclear. The 10.5 lb. limit is for the unloaded rifle with scope. Bipod, suppressor, sling, etc. are not included in the weight limit. Thanks.

    Thanks for the highly informative thread. Straight Jacket Armory will install a 21.5" 6GT barrel on my Sig Cross next week. I went with a shorter barrel to keep total unloaded weight < 10.5 lbs. per the rules of our local 600 yard match. I have good supplies of H4350, Varget, and RL 15.5. I...

    Tikka T3X CTR First Shots...WOW!

    First shots fired last weekend with my new Tikka T3x CTR 6.5 Creedmoor. Mine is the 20" blue version. Everything shot sub MOA. I put together 50 rounds of this load for the 600 yard match next weekend. Thannks for the informative thread!

    Tikka T3X CTR First Shots...WOW!

    Thanks very much! You've been very helpful. I hope to get the same results. We have a new hunter/sporter class in our local 600 yard match that requires the unloaded rifle with scope to be < 10.5 lbs. This should do nicely!
