Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 64 gr. Nosler test fire

Buzzsaw,

Vanilla 223 -- Tikka T3 Lite SS 10" twist (Chinese pliers)

The group above was my first with that load. The second group...



And the third group on a VERY WARM barrel...



Also to answer you question on another thread -- I've experimented with seating depth with every powder. The bullets kiss at 2.173" in my chamber. I'm shooting these at 2.153". The cannelure is slightly below the case mouth. I've tried them touching to as far off as the ogive allows and found this to be the best depth in my rifle.
