Tikka 223 ammo

[Kbhillhunter]

Just picked up a T3x in 223. Any recommendations for decent but relatively inexpensive (per round) bulk ammo that shoots well out of these? Goal right now is for target shooting out to 300 yards. First time shooting this caliber and would like to buy in larger quantities, especially if purchasing online. Thanks!

Which frontier? Mine doesn’t seem to like the 75gr.

My T3x .223 likes the 68gr Frontier

This stuff has been excellent in several rifles and you can’t get 223 match ammo for any less. 69gr handles 300 yards no problem.

Global Ordnance. ADI (Australian Munitions). Fantastic accurate ammo. It shoots clean and is very accurate out of 3 different SBR rifles.

What`s your .223`s twist? You might take a look at Black Dot Ammunition. They have a web site. They package a remanufactured 55grain VMax round that shoots sub-MOA at 100 yards easily out of my 1:9 Savage 110 Storm. Several hundred rounds used, absolutely no issues to this point.

It is 1:8 with a 20" barrel

The old Australian outback stuff shot great for me but this new ADI branded 69 smk doesn’t shoot well out of my T3x lite. The 55 SMKs do well though.

Factory hornady 73 ELDm (only shot one box thus far) looks really good so far in the same gun. They are available for a little under $1/round.

That's good news, looks like I have access to that locally. Will give it a try. Thanks!

The Fiocchi 50 grain VMax ammo shoots great in my T3x varmint
