The one that pushes a 77grTMK in a .223 to 1800fps out to 675yds with an 18in Tikka.What recipe are you after?
Can’t help you with that.The one that pushes a 77grTMK in a .223 to 1800fps out to 675yds with an 18in Tikka.
SeriouslyHandloads, yes.
No offense but the person who shared this load with me made me promise not to share;
seriously.
I will say it's on the hot side.
Until someone hurts themselves and starts trying to sue. This is the society we live in these days. I would like to assume there aren’t many of those types of people on here but ya never know. I’m not saying I wouldn’t share the recipe but can understand his pause.Seriously, we are all grown ups here

Unless they are a Lib.Kinda like when someone shares their honey hole with you with the understanding that you won't share it. Man's word is his word.

Ha! Yeah, right! ROFLSeriously, we are all grown ups here
Yeah, but depending on the person it might not be a real tight bond.Kinda like when someone shares their honey hole with you with the understanding that you won't share it. Man's word is his word.

When it gets warm your Tikka firing pin assembly breaks.
Weird.

I ordered 200 of them and they should be delivered this week. You are seein a little higher ES than I expected but SD is ok for $0.85 ammo. Look forward to shooting them and seeing what they will do for me.AAC 77gr TMKs from a 16" tikka. Still in stock at $0.85/ea. Every time I shoot a group, I end up wanting to buy more

If it doesn't have a value to input for tip length it's going to be wrong on every tipped bullet.Which stability calculator have you all found to be the most accurate? My .223 bolt gun is a Bergara Ridge SP with a 1-9 twist barrel. It shoots the 73 ELD-Ms well, although I have only tried it to 300 yards so far.
JBM gives me a return of 1.51 with the 77 TMK, but the Speer and Bison Ballistics give me ~1.2. I run into the same results with the 73 ELD-M, so I'm questioning how much weight to put into it. I'm going to get some and just shoot them to see, but curious what other folks are seeing.
That's what I suspected, simply based on the logic of more information = a better output.If it doesn't have a value to input for tip length it's going to be wrong on every tipped bullet.
Even jbm assumes plastic, if you have an aluminum tipped bullet it won't be quite correct either.
JBM is the one you want to use.
