Quick question, Tikka T3 .223, 1 in 8" or 1 in 12"?
Recommendations/thoughts please........
1:8 is what my Lite SS is
Hows it go with 50-55gns? I can't see me needing to ever go lighter than this.
mine shoots 55gr vmax's fine. and loves 65gr game kings seated to mag length with 26gr 2206h.
The 1-8 works great with the 75 Amax
If you think you will ever want to shoot the 69sp or higher BC pills for game or LR varminting etc get the 1-8.
1:8
What weight would a 1:9 max out at?
1:9 shoots 69s easy - not run anythign bigger through my one
I've even shot 80gn SMK through my 1 in 8" .223.
They grouped fine, even seated to fit the mag, so go the 1 in 8" twist.
1-8
Why restrict yourself.1/8. Now own 3 of them.Some are dedicated i.e 53 gr Sierra ,63 gr Sierra and 62 gr Barnes.They are "all" highly necessary.
