    Tikka 223 problem

    Maybe @Formidilosus can help here as well as some of the other "experts". Little rifle history...started life as a 6.5 then swapped out for a stainless factory 223 takeoff. Had kampfeld screw it on for me. Has about 500 rounds down the tube. No cleaning, just shooting. Had it for about...

    I may have sounded discontent. I was more joking than anything. But I've working in excavation for 8 years. Working on a two man crew. Can run any piece of machinery with some finesse. Have no added benefits other than access to machinery. Work 40-50 hour weeks.(Nothing crazy) And...

    Much like every other caliber/cartridge You MUST hit vitals to repeatedly kill

    My point more being..."looked good" when comparing to killing elk and deer. Isn't always good

    That's my point. Hence the "messed up". Good pics for example tho. It's an easy mistake for me to make.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    This thread is for the good...and the bad. I messed up. Black bear at 234 yards. Shot honestly looked good. He was biting right behind the shoulder so maybe I freckle forward? Either way my gap was tiny and no following up shot happened. Even with extensive practice racking and...

    What do you consider a "chip shot"

    Like many have said. "Chip" shot is hard to define I shoot quite a lot even out to extended ranges. But in field conditions....where I'd put money on a first round hit. Maybe 200-250

    RokStok

    I think the rokstok is gorgeous. Is it just the fact that it ain't normal? If it works I'm all over it.

    Does temp stability cause any concern? First time loading 223 and just had varget and reloader 15 around Any other stick powders that have less case fill than varget? With better temp stability than some of the ball powders?

    I'm gonna try and whack a Idaho spring bear with either tmks or 80 eldms. I like the 80 grain bc if u can get decent velocity. But then again those tmks are quite proven

    Thanks! Ya I have a magazine I can load long in and even then varget was not totally ideal. Once again it was a powder I had. I need some xbr but it's not available now. I couldn't afford it a few weeks ago when it was in stock. I have enough reloader 15 to get me by for a while...

    I couldn't get varget and tmks to shoot. 2.5" Swapped to reloader 15 cause it's what I have. And down to like 1-1.25" 10 round groups. Is mine the only tikka that seems slightly picky?
