    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    If I remember correctly it was said they work similarly but with less penetration. I believe multiple people are using them in 9 twist barrels. 77s are definitely the preferred weight but I understand 69 are more available.

    Which tikka to buy

    Well I got myself a t3x stainless 223 and a 6.5 ctr 20 inch barrel! Looking forward to becoming a better shooter. This forum has been a huge help to me with training and simplifying things. No longer will I be the guy tuning my load every week at the range! Now I just need to get some scopes...

    Which tikka to buy

    Yeah this is what I was thinking. Realistically I’ll be spending more time at the range with it than anywhere else. And then I could save the gunsmith trip getting it cut to 20 and threaded.

    Thanks, I have been considering something similar. My plans were to go with a rokstok and switch to a standard tikka bottom metal and mag. I was also looking a a credo to put on top of it because I don’t want to spend nx8 money.

    Which tikka to buy

    I could use some help. After reading through the 223 thread I’m definitely sold on a rss tikka 223. I am trying to decide what to do for the states with a larger minimum if I should get a ctr or super lite. Any drawbacks other than weight to the ctr? Already comes threaded at 20 inches. Thanks...

    Curious what powder you are using for that load, I have an 18 inch barrel going to the smith this week!

    I would think the idea of 1000+ yard ballistic solutions is to get a bigger hold on the long range competition scene. I’m sure some will find it useful for hunting too.
