My Tikka SS Lite (6.5 CM, 24.3" barrel) also hit an accuracy node with the 127 gr LRX at 43.5 gr of RL16. The last two (of 5 loaded) over a magnetospeed MV3 went 2,910 fps, using new Norma brasss and F210 primers.


That's my load out of my Montana as well, 2,890 fps out of the 20" barrel. I've only killed one Antelope with it, but it grabbed dirt immediately.
