You guys really should warn people that newbies are not tolerated. It would save both of us valuable time. The fact that you can’t ask a question or make an observation if it is contained somewhere in your 300 pages is a pretty sad testament. I am discouraged, and no longer care to understand or absorb any more of this subject matter.

Did a bot write this?

Bullets matter.

Correct bullets (wound channel, depth of penetration, BC) delivered with high accuracy and high precision out of a robust delivery system with impact velocity adequate to deliver terminal performance with the highest hit rate and lowest recoil…

This entire thread is based on objectivity and efficiency and end results that matter.

Please, read the thread. Trust the process. Verify the process for yourself. Post your findings with pictures and necropsy results.

We’ll all learn!

I typed that it is small, that is all. This thread demonstrates it's ability.

The Tikka compact comes with a spacer so it can be a standard LOP rifle as well. And the compacts have a 20" barrel from the factory which is a handy length out of the box if folks don't intend to cut/thread.

Thanks for making that point.

I bought the compact for the 20 inch barrel. Already have the optional spacer installed so LOP is standard now.

I just actually realized this thread has moose in the title. Has anyone actually killed a moose with .223? Too many pages to re-read.

Look at page 26 to answer your question, but you should certainly read the whole thing

Pics added…we are really bad a taking pics as you can see. We also do gutless cleaning so very rarely do we inspect internal damage or hunt for bullets.

Some processing pics. In and out on small button at 90ish yd

No they don’t. That’s what I ordered last night and got an email saying they are out of stock this morning. But yes their website says in stock for the box of 500….

Not a good showing for my first experience with them.

Has anyone tried the Fed American Eagle 75gr TMJ for practice ammo? I'm curious what it grouped like.

I’m sorry for giving you the bum steer there, they typically have been really good.

No worries amigo. I generally don’t back order anything due to personal preference, so had I known that they weren’t actually in stock I wouldn’t have placed the order. They should’ve been better about updating their website.

Heading out tomorrow to see how the Tikka .223 likes the 77 TMK factory black hills ammo. Will post the results in the Tikka 10 round group thread.
