Show your Tikka ten round groups

Older Tikka T3, factory stock except the Shilen 7x57 barrel, 140 Sierra TGKs, full case of Ramshot Hunter. (POI is because rifle is currently dialed for my 175 ELD-X load). First load I've come up with that seems to jam with the 140 TGKs.

Random 243 takeoff barrel I found online and screwed onto my 280 AI action, it head-spaced just fine. Tried it out with the 100gr SGK load I worked up for my BLR, it doesn’t love it but it’s still good enough for whitetails.image_cropper_65148061-A17C-4F2C-854D-3163EEF068E4-18908-000002DEF34625A8.jpeg
 
Tikka roughtech specter 6.5 creed, Swfa 3-9, and S&B 140 gr fmj. Probably bring it down a .1 mil or .2. Good enough until my OG shows up and I zero on eldms. IMG_20250705_152815_HDR.jpg

T3x Lite Compact .223, tried 73gr ELD-M for the first time and having seen other's success with that load I was hoping for a little better. It groups pretty much identical to the 77gr AAC OTM which is half the price... dang it. I am using a crappy $100 Cabelas scope borrowed from a buddy while I track down a Credo for the right price, that might improve things. Action screws are at 55lbs, might play with that a bit and see what changes. Will be sending to Kampfeld soonish for a chop/thread as well.

One of the Preferred 223 Wylde barrels we have. Shooting cheap Norma ammo with 69 gr OTM bullets. Haven’t swapped out the stock yet, but it’s fun to shoot while breaking in.
