75 ELDM with TAC might just kill a Mulie this October in Oregon…

Are you using mtn tac magazines? I have liked the 73 eldm but the 75s are too long to use in the factory mag, playing with the 77 tmk now.

Waters Rifleman is the best option. Spendy, but quality and 2.6 OAL.

I don't shoot many groups at 100 with my 223 but I swapped scopes so I shot a five shot group before I moved zero. I have a 1031 shots down the pipe, zero cleaning. Easy money!

You sound a bit confused, I don’t believe that ammunition is available

I'm married so I'm confused most of the time but never about ammo.

I think the confusion comes from there being no 88 gr TMK on Sierras website. Is this something new or did you mean 77 gr?

He meant 77.

That's what I figured when I saw his post.

Well shit... as per my post above I'm married and I run an adult daycare center disguised as a forum so I have to drunk forum sometimes and my fingers get heavy.

88 grainers would be cool though....

88 tmk and a 22 creed would be a devastating combo.

I know, I was thinking that this is something that should happen.

How about a 88 gr. .223, a 110 gr. .243, and a 150 gr. .264?

The 88 eld-m doesn't bounce off things at creed speeds

Yeah if tikka made a factory 22 creed I would have one for that bullet.

And it still might be easier to rebarrel to 22 creed than to find the 77 tmk in stock.

I figured it was indeed 88gr tipped bullets.. here is what I found.
Haha, that will teach me to believe everything @Ryan Avery says. I spent a solid 15 min looking for an 88gr tmk.

Pretty sure those are 88gr hornady eldm “seconds”

I agree. I thought it was plausible due to it being called out as a one-time run.

They(Tikka) have a 1:8 22-250, won't launch the 88 eld- m but will certainly boost the tmk downrange

On paper or on animals?
Hornady reccomends a 1:7.

Our group had used the 88’s on 22CM rechambered 22-250’s quite bit. They work fine.
