[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1841434, member: 12"] IF you are really talking LR like a 1000 yards, then you need to be in the 180-215 range of bullet weights. F 210 primers and H4350 have been a go to combo for years. However, RL 26 and superperformance should not be overlooked and try 215M. Norma brass IMO is a little soft for my liking. I competed and hunted with a WSM for 15 years. Winchester brass was the toughest but required sorting by weight and ended up with 50% in best batch. Had smaller batches but start with 200 of them in "same lot". In lighter bullets the 165 barnes TTSX with RL17 was a hammer and a screamer. It was good to 800. I would think that a true 1/4 MOA out of factory Tikka is being a bit optimistic. Be happy with 3/4" and estatic at 1/2. [/QUOTE]
