I'm hoping my Tikka will shoot these well. Anyone shooting this combo in a Lapua case? I'm thinking somewhere around 45 gr at the top end might get me around 2850 fps from the 22" bbl? | ||

No? I loaded up a series in .5 grain increments and will report here after running them over the chrono. My Tikka plunked cheap Fed 140 grainers into .75" but didn't like 95 or 120's at all. The 130's have quite a long bearing surface so crossing my fingers on the results as they would make a dynamite pig or deer bullet. | |||

I haven`t tried R17 in my Swede yet but i don`t think I`d go 45gr just yet. I get ~2850fps now with R22 or H4831 and 129gr Hornadies. I`m sure the 130 can do it with these powders to and likely at slightly lower peak psi. The little I`ve played with R17 it seems to loosly follow IMR4350, that`s in the 6.5x284 and 30-06 though. ------------------------------------ The trouble with the Internet is that it's replacing masturbation as a leisure activity. ~Patrick Murray "Why shouldn`t truth be stranger then fiction?
