[QUOTE="budlight, post: 503677, member: 2939"] I took a long hard look at the tikka 243. It has some negative aspects. 1:10 twist rate and a 23 3/4 inch short barrel. I went with rem 700 1:9 1/4 twist and 26 inch bull barrel. I just did some chrono work and I have over 3600 fps 75 gr hpbt and 3500 fps 80 gr spbt. Both of them are excellent varmint rounds. The bonus is that 100, 105, 107 gr also paper very well and would make a nice medium game round when shot at 3100 fps [/QUOTE]
