[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 2907228, member: 109229"] Hi all, A month or so back, I picked up a Tikka in 6.5 CRDM. I’ve never owned a Tikka but I think I’ve been won over. This is the first time I’ve developed a load suppressed, with my Harvester 300. I took a stab in the dark on the CBTO cause the throat was so long, I pushed the SST right out of the comparator case to set the starting jump (I hate it when that happens!). I ended up at 2.174” CBTO. Anyway, after 45 rounds, I think I might have it figured out. I did hit pressure at 42.3 grains (.58 MOA) so I decided to back off a bit, go back to the bench and explore the mid-41 range. I had read that longer throats tend to behave better when they aren’t pushed. I don’t know how true this is but I think 41.7 will work. Be well, LRH friends![ATTACH type="full"]495279[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]495280[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]495281[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
