Here’s my tikka 22-250 1:8 factory barrel and two 10 round groups this morning. Both groups were shot fairly rapid with no breaks between.
Haven’t found too much data on this combo so here’s mine: staball was a charge weight of 37.8 grains and the Varget was 33 grains. Got no pressure so I’ll probably go up on both from there. Both shooting 73 eldm, 1x fired hornady brass, with a Winchester primer. Bullet was seated a the hornady recommendation of 2.940. Both produced average velocitys in the 3100 range. Slight crosswind of 8-10 mph.
The staball 6.5 group was first group and had a es of approximately 70fps.
The varget group had an ES in the lower 20’s and is definitely minute of kill, IMO. Also the bullet by itself in the bottom right of the varget group was 100% me pulling the shot. I’m still counting it as part of the group though.
I’m going to stick with Varget unless staball gets its shit together with a higher charge weight. That’s a 9mm round for scale
