Tikka 223 trainer

[B_Reynolds_AK]

As cheap as that AAC stuff is. Why even bother saving the brass and reloading it? Just buy more

Because I reload 77 TMK and 80 ELD-M and that’s what I use for my training and hunting rounds. But I don’t want to load 1,000 rounds for the class, plus I don’t have that much brass. With ADI you get training rounds, plus great brass.

If you're keeping brass, the ADI maths over the AAC.

And the BC of the 69’s is close enough to the 75/77’s to work out to 5-600 yards?

Jordan what bottom metal do you recommend to fit factory Roughtech stock and use AICS mags?
Thanks

You’ll have to get out your Dremel to open the inlet, but the last few years I’ve been pretty happy with Atlasworx BM with the trigger guard mag release upgrade.

I’ve got one cut and threaded by kampfeld at 18in. Almost unlimited barrel life and cheap ammo. 24gr of Tac over 73eldm prints tiny groups for me

Have you shot the 69's in a stock tikka from a recent order? When I was ordering stuff for mine, I went with 55s because wind gypse said his more recent orders (at that time) of 69s weren't shooting as well. The 55s have been solid but as has been mentioned start getting pushed around further out.

I picked up one of the 223 T3x super lite that bass pro had on sale. I should have bought one of these long ago.

Just joined the club. Tikka .223 1:8 20” barrel.

Lots of inputs on ammo. Bought 73 ELDM to try first.

I would like this gun to be a trainer for my 12 yo son, wife, and myself (and eventually 5 yo daughter). Therefore looking to buy a chassis with adjustable LOP and cheek riser. Right now, KRG Echo and MDT Field Chassis are topping the list. KRG Echo seems to have widest LOP adjustment. Any other recommendations out there?

With the right ammo and scope, is this a 500 yard target gun?

Congrats on the purchase! Yes. My tikka 223 t3x lite trainer on Sunday at 500. Running 77tmks I have the 22 inch barrel

Nice, 1 MOA = roughly 1 premier protein at 500y. Those handholds or the Black Hills Ammunition?

Haha guess so. They are hand loads

Same gun in 16” barrel and Rokstok.

You’ll have a lot of fun!
