Sounds like you need to jump on Prime‘s next group buy if you don’t want to load your own (assuming they will keep loading the 130 TMK).I definitely could have gotten by with the 223. Buddy with a buck tag carried a spotter so all was well. I’m pretty careful though when I’m shooting mulie does, super easy to not catch a spike in there at 300 yards when everything is brown. Learned that lesson the hard way. I did zoom to 25x to confirm my last doe.
Terminal performance I’d give to the tmk though, wish I would have had it.
Iv got all I need to load my own I just need to find some 130 and 107 TMK. They are in my list of crap to buy in bulk when I find it.Sounds like you need to jump on Prime‘s next group buy if you don’t want to load your own (assuming they will keep loading the 130 TMK).
One of these days I might even get out in the woods with that combo…

Keep an eye out at smaller shops. I rotated through all the gun shops in my town, after a couple months I eventually found a stainless, 223 super lite.Where can we even find tikkas in stock?!
https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/load-development-my-method.238981/#post-2335181Do awfully hate to ask, but it looks like I missed out on some of those sales and I'm planning a hog hunt in the next month. If anyone's willing to quote me a price on some Black Hills or 8208...and I live in the Cstat area, if there's anyone local.
Now, I know this is just some more pole-vaulting over mouse turds, but I'm thinking of trying to build up a ladder to 23.8 gr of 8208XBR loaded to 2.26" OAL. Will be fired in a 5.56 chamber. Any estimates as to velocity out of a 16" barrel with a 23.8 gr charge? Worries about overpressure? Anyone observe any horizontal (or substantial vertical) POI shift with 8208 handloads as compared to the Black Hills stuff? Not terribly interested in rezeroing my scope every time I switch between the two.
