Thread: Tikka 7mm rem mag -OAL

Really depends on the wear on your barrel. I would be unsurprised if it had at least 0.1" of jump but you'll have to measure it to know.

The 20 thou jump people often try to start at is fairly arbitrary. People quite often find a load that works well there. But that's not the same as it being the only place the bullet will shoot well. I have not found the 162gr SST to be fussy over seating depth. Load to mag length or book length, whatever. It will probably shoot fine.

Thanks Pommy, appreciate your knowledge.
