Looks like Mid-March is when Sierra expects these to be open for sale. View attachment 1007223

I know everyone is hot on the big 6mm bullets. But if someone wants to do serious damage on animals that shoot a 6.5, that 153 is pretty spicy.

After seeing what the 77 can do, I'm pumped for the 88s. The 107s are of great interest as well. Fingers crossed availability will be alright!

I don't see how they got a 292g7 on a 107tmk, then a 153 is 320?! Weird, I will trust nothing till verified.

I'm definitely wanting to try them, just hope I can push them fast enough. The 147's I'm shooting now are already almost too slow (factory though).

What's the consensus on a stock Tikka 243 being throated for the 116 grain? They look pretty looong

Throating them deeper is cheap and easy.

M+ mags allow a reasonable amount of jump in mine, .050 or .060 iirc. I would have to go to a longer mag to jamb.

What COAL did you end with? Any issues stabilizing in the 1:8 243 Tikka? Do you think the 107 or 116 will hit 1800 fps further? Im going down a rabbit hole before I make a large bullet purchase since im just starting with a new to me 243 lol

Yea I plan to try those too

The 107 at .292 G7 is too interesting not to try. Then for sure the 116, 153 and 7mm 185 (if I still have a 7mm by then)
