JBM, using JBM's stated length/tiplength for the 109, shows me in the 1.5x range depending on what pressure and temperatures I put in.

Of course, both models are based on theory and subject to reality. lol.

I'm not even sure it's something I want to do yet. I like the concept of a shorter, lower-recoil 6mm, but I have to remind myself that the 6.5cm is working really well and the marginal gains in shootability between it and a similar 6mm, are small, and only come at the far end of another string of expenses I could do without.

But that's sort of the story of my life, as far as guns go.

Yep, I'm actually moving to the 95 TMK for hunting given reports of inconsistent performance from ELDMs. The ELDM is still a fine choice, but inside 500 yards I don't think the improved BC will help enough to really matter.

When I switch to a 7 twist 6 creed I will probably stay with the 95 TMK, but it is hard to resist the temptation to mess with things.

I'm curious, will the 8-twist Tikkas fully stabilize the 109eldm?

An 8-twist Tikka would certainly be the easy-button for a light/short 6mm.

Yes

99% of what we do round here.
