    175gr Berger Elite Hunter

    Impressive velicity. I've just ordered some for my .280 ai to try. What powder and how much are you using? I was going to try re26 to start with.

    Tikka 300 WM problems

    Yes. I was thinking about trying the 185 classic hunter. BC isn't great but I think that's the biggest CH they make

    Tikka 300 WM problems

    I've actually got a carbon fibre stock on order. Will be 250 grams lighter than the factory stock. It however takes the same mag setup. I'll hunt around and try and find some after market version that might work.

    Tikka 300 WM problems

    Hi. Do you mean they would handle a big jump or the 1:11 twist? Thanks

    Thanks Will. I also have put a brake on and lightened the trigger. I've got a leupold vx6 4-24 on top which I love. Is that the SST you're shooting?

    Tikka 300 WM problems

    Yes i tend to agree. I tried the 210 gr LRAB yesterday and they were pretty average. Loaded some 200 eldx's today. The berger calculator suggests the 208/210/215's will only be marginally stabilised.

    Haha. Looks like just the ticket. I'll have to see if I can track one down. Thanks.

    What powder and how much are you using? With the 195 TMK I got up to 83 gr of H1000 with no pressure. Max case capacity though.

    Thanks for the replies guys. Hunting altitude varies here from sea level to a max of about 5000 ft. On average maybe 3000?

    I don't think you can get Hammer bullets in New Zealand, but Barnes are plentiful

    Tikka 300 WM problems

    Hi guys. I've been a long time reader of this forum but this is my first post. I recently bought a 300 WM tikka T3X and I'm keen to have a mag fit load if at all possible. I didn't realise however just how short the tikka mag is. The first projectile I tried was the Berger 180 gr Elite hunter...
