[QUOTE="KR260, post: 1621558, member: 102798"] I have a Tikka Varmint in 223 with the factory 1-8 barrel. Using AICS mags and H4895 I run the 75gr ELDM at 3025 fps and it is flatter than my 6.5 with 140 ELDM out to 800 yards. The rifle in my profile pic is a Tikka with a 1-7 Bartlein chambered in 22BR. I run the 88gr ELDM at 3004 fps with 27.3 gr of H4895. You can get 3050-3150 with Varget. If you keep it at 3050 or less, barrle life is 2500+. My next 223 barrel will be a 1-7 so I can play with the 80 and 88 ELDM. Might go 223AI. [/QUOTE]
