New TMK announced

[nm.otter]

115 TMK - 109 ELD - 109 Hybrid - 115 DTAC

Even longer than the 109s -- should seat nicely in 6mm GT.

115 dtacs need 0.200 freebore in the 6GT in my opinion. The 6gt has a longer neck than the creed, so the creed should probably be around 0.220 optimally for the dtac.

So for a 1:8 243 would the 107 be the ideal bullet? Would there be any noticeable differences above the 95TMK for 500 yards and in on whitetail size game?

Shoot the 115s in a dasher? Barrel twist and freebore?

Think the new 88 TMK will stabilize ok out of a 1-8 twist 22 creed?

I personally think 20” or longer 22 creed will get them fast enough to stabilize with a 1:8.
Shorter will probably find 1:7 or 7.5 will be better.

Roger that. I’ve got the standard cut NR’s and have been curious to see how they’d act on deer/goats/bears as it sounds like maybe they wouldn’t have the chance to do the same amount of damage that they would on an elk, maybe acting more like a mono on those smaller animals?

My experience with them has been positive overall. Granted most of it was with a 6 UM at 3400 mv, but they did well out of the 243 Improved too. A couple wounds with slightly longer necks, but nothing that left room to question lethality.

I asked AI to compare the existing TMK line and guess at the length and BC of an 88 and it guessed
Bc: .510-.545
Length: 1.19-1.25”

Berger suggests stability :
1.28 w/ 1:8.
1.46 w 1:7.5
1.67 W 1:7

59* and 1000’ 3150 fps

You’d need to go to 6,800’ for 1:8 to get above 1.5 sg

Not sure if you mean the DTAC's or these new bullets.

Never shot the DTAC's extensively.

Will be shooting these TMK's in a Dasher tomorrow, if all goes well.

Talking the new tmk. Let us know how it goes please.

I’d like to shoot them in my hunting dasher if a 7.5 twist will spin them
