Just received a tikka superlite .243 win with the updated 8 twist barrel. For the guys who have been loading for this particular rifle, what bullets are you finding that the 8 twist likes? I was going to try 108 eldm first then move onto 103 eldx or 95 TMK next if the 108’s don’t pan out. The two powders I have on hand are H4831sc and Staball 6.5.

Interested in this myself. Just started with my 243. Loaded 103ELDM with 39grains H4350. Around an inch. Sorry, that's the only powder i have on hand for it.

I bought a box of 108s the other day so will be toying with those too. Will post results.

My attempts with 95gn Nosler left a lot to be desired but like i said, I'm just starting.

I know a few guys that are successfully using 42gr of H4350 with the 108gr ELDM's seated at 2.80" in the 1:8" barrels, but I don't know anybody that has the Superlite. I also want to try some H1000 loads as well.
