My Tikka 1-8” really likes 75 grain ELD-M at 2935 fps. I hear it’s an effective deer bullet, too, and I can attest to small game and long-range efficacy. The 73 grain version was built for AR Mag boxes so I’ll bet it would work well.

Just bought some 77gr Sierra MK's at Cabela's for $19.99/box. Bought 3. Would have bought more, but that's all they had. I've had pretty good luck with these and the 69's. Very consistent shooters. Other pills I've tried like the 75gr Hornady BTHP get weird flyers. Although the 73gr ELD match bullet flies pretty true..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

As you know only 50 come to a box. So you paid $40 for a 100 Bullets. That my friend is not a very good deal. https://www.powdervalleyinc.com/product/sierra-224-22-77-grain-hollow-point-boat-tail-matchking/
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Ha ha. Only bullet they do that with, heck even the 77gr tmk come 100 to a box. The bullet I like to get my hands on would be the 60gr tmk has a bc of .323 that’s impressive for a 60gr bullet.

Now you tell me. I thought I stole them. Ha ha.. Daughter was with me, so I was in a hurry. No wonder they were still on the shelf!! I'll put them with the box of 500 I bought a few months ago...

Blend them in with the old ones, like stocks, and dollar cost averaging says you’re money ahead.
