    What I learned this year about rifles...

    THREE YEAR UPDATE... Just a couple of new insights this year in my quest to becoming a hand-loader who has some minimal understanding of ballistics and accuracy. 1. Bedding rifles can be more witchcraft than science. 2. When I want to put deer down DRT, a 160 grainer @ an initial 3000...

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    UPDATE: This thread got me out of sorts this week. So I went back to shooting my 160's, but lessened my powder ~5 grains. Each group was sub MOA and my gun acted more like its old self; but almost 150 feet/sec slower than when I had a 24" bbl. The first pic below was at 100 yesterday. The...

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    Here's a pic. I never shot it at this length without the break, and I have never shot a suppressor on it Please note this is only an example of 1. I have friends who have had their rifle stay accurate when cutting the bbl back. Mine is still accurate, but not like it was. (I also think I...

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    I have T3x superlite (7mmRM w/ 24" bbl) and had a 5/8x24 Vias break put on. It didn't change the POI more than an inch and did nothing to the speed, and the gun continued to shoot 160g+ projectiles so, so good. Heck, it shot everything great and developed a reputation of its own at my local...

    7mm rem mag powder

    D - I started down this road when COVID set in in 2020. I too have a T3x in 7mm. ANSWER#1 - No matter the powder and no matter the bullet, I can find an acceptable load (.75 day after day after day; and cold bore shot less than 1" off POA @200) at an acceptable speed (3000 ft/sec with a 160g...

    What I learned this year about rifles...

    TWO YEAR UPDATE... I'm still learning. 1. I am now a 4 rifle guy. (all .284s) 2. I am learning older Winchester triggers and Mauser 98 actions. 2. I have thought a lot about the 2 posts above (scopes holding zero). And I have been paying close attention b/t trips to the range. My...

    7mm Rem and H1000 Question

    Should anyone find this thread via a search engine like I have, I did what danmayland suggested to the OP (I had the same question as the OP with the exact same specs.) It worked perfectly for 160g Accubonds, Paritions, and Speer BTSP. I also found these for H1000 reference...

    Need advice on a 7mm rifle and scope

    Here's my T3x in 7mmRM. As for a scope, I have tested a VX-Freedom 4-12 with the LR reticle (seen above), a Burris FF2 3-9, a Nikon and something else. They all are good. I feel the Burris and Nikon hold zero the best. I wind up carrying my rifle a lot and it gets knocked around quite a bit...
