[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 2765877, member: 12282"] I have shot the 143 ELD-X from my 22" T3-Lite for the last couple years. Have far heavier and more accurate guns, but man the little Tikka with a deadly round is sweet. Over two seasons, 3 deer, three shots. The older I get, the heavier the guns become. The Tikka is throated long as would be most 6.5x55 Over 49.8 RL-26 I get around 2800 fps and under MOA groups 5 shot and cold 22" barrel. That is the node I settled on, but according to Quickload and my other numbers I think I could search for a higher node. I'll join in this thread not as a master, but as interested. The 6.5 Swede as we all know has more case capacity than the Creed or several other 6.5 offerings. Plus wonderful Lapua brass. But loading to real modern pressures is tricky, as you will have no book guidance. But since when did that matter?? [/QUOTE]
