[QUOTE="CLW, post: 442933, member: 27224"] My Tikka is picky with powders/charges but COL hasnt seemed to be a big factor for it. It has a detachable magazine so I dont have much room to get the bullet closer to the lands so I just loaded everything to 2.86" with the 180 Accubonds. I had no luck with RL 17 or 22 (still need to play with the 17 some more) but IMR 4350 works great in it. I get sub MOA groups at 64.5 grains and half MOA groups at 65.1 grains. I actually loaded some up at 65 grains (which is MAX Load!) and they grouped really well without much pressure signs then the next time I loaded for it I accidentally put .1 grain extra in the first case so just did that on the rest of them. Worked out great, seemed to actually tighten the group a tiny, tiny bit....... Havent ran it through a chrono but it the Nosler book says 3013 fps with 65 grains and that bullet.......... I am using CCI 250 primers and Winchester brass......... [/QUOTE]
