    Tikka .223 1:8 twist. Suitable heavy pill?

    I’ve now accumulated a reasonable amount of my Winchester brass (64gr), and am looking for suitable varmint /longish range type pills to start reloading with

    Powder?

    Primers?

    Previous owner said his 75gr handloads were too long for the mag, so I’m looking for something that will feed OK. I don’t want to hand-feed.

    Please note I have plenty of 55gr ammo i use through my other bolt rifle, so am wanting something that will challenge my abilities to shoot as good as this rifle.

    Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere

    I don’t yet own my own reloading gear. Am looking to source materials first and use a mates gear to reload

    Thanks for your advice!

    Si
