Load Development

[HunterEldridge]

So I am getting the components together to work up a load for a new Tikka T3X lite in 7mm rem mag. I know I have seen a company that offers different projectiles but in smaller quantity's. For example a pack of (10) 162gr. ELDX, (10) 168 accubonds ect. ect. to keep from having to search for and buy multiple box's of projectiles. anyone know the name of the company? And this is for Hunting applications not punching paper.

If you are considering Bergers, I have never not seen 168 VLD shoot in the few rifles I have used them.

Yep, somewhere around the 69gr range of H1000 and a 168 is the Tikka ticket

every gun is different. Make sure you’re working up to max pressure safely.

submoashooting.com is a bullet sample pack company. Fast shipping but inventory can be hit or miss.

I know unknown munitions will do a load development pack of loaded ammo. Different bullets, powder charges etc. But I too would be curious if there's a company that would sell 10 or so just bullets to compare.

Also hammer sells sample packs of I beleive 15 bullets at a time direct from the website.

Well aware, hence the "somewhere around" and "Tikka" part.

One of the problems with sample packs is lot to lot variations. You may have differences with results, minor typically...but keep that in mind before you load up 500 based on a sample of 10.

My comment was direct at someone that might see your comment and say “my setup is similar, I’m going to try that.”
