Anyone played around with this bullet in say anything 2900 FPS and faster? Got me a bit intrigued in the 22 creed as its a sleeker higher bc bullet but also bonded - if that matters at all? If say that bullet and a 77 TMK bullet were launched at nearly similar velocities and hit a deer or...
Took the tikka to the range this past weekend and got the first 35 rounds down the tube. Using Fed 210, Hornady new brass, H4350, and 80 grain ELDX. I did 15 at 35g, 5@ 35.5, 5@36, [email protected], and 5@37. Mainly wanted to see where I hit pressure and it happened at 36.5. 37 had good ejector marks and...
If you want reliability and premier glass, for a hunting scope, look at the Schmidt Bender Klassic 3-12x42 with turret. World class optics, enough travel to get most cartridges out to around 700 yards. Form recommended this scope to me for my 22 creed project. Mine is on backorder right now.
Not a huge vortex by any means, but the specs of this scope are so intriguing...Obviously, their high end RZR line is Japan made. Anyone have this scope and have anything good or bad to report with Reliability, repeatability, optical clearness, reticle thoughts? Overall thoughts?
I may be about...
For years have shot 139 scenars in the 6.5s. Killed lots of critters as has friends and family with that bullet. We shoot that at around 2800 FPS in tikka rifles. I recently chopped about 3" off the barrel of my sons superlite and threaded it just about the flutes for a suppressor so barrel...
I don't' have experience with one so they could be junk for all i know, but if I was looking at a 3-4k scope, a S&B PM II 5-25X would probably be near the top of the list....
I havent had a chance to shoot and chrono my loads yet - was planning on last weekend and ended up not getting out - But I am shooting a 19" tikka barrel with 80 grain eld x and H4350. Hoping to shoot and get some initial velocities this weekend.
I placed an order thru Silencer Central on the Haverster Evo for my 22 creed about 8 weeks ago. Sent all my paperwork/fingerprints in and nothing - no emails, communication, anything. So I called in today and come to find out they were discontinued and announced to dealers at the SHOT Show...
Yes, I should have been more clear - that was for all work involved. But once again, the work quality is 100% top notch and why I will continue using Kampfelds and referring others as well!
I wanted to keep the speed with the shorter barrel and also just makes me feel better to have a bit tougher bullet...If there was an 80-85 grain scenar, I would shoot that first. I have already talked myself into using this rifle for deer, bear, and antelope if I draw and now I am working on...
