Pharmseller has 75's scooting 3,100 with TAC in a 23" .223 Tikka. Might ask him as I've never messed with TAC but it's been available more than Lever so might have to check it out if worse comes to worse and Pharmseller still has a face. smile

Lots and lots of threads of all the usual suspects arguing about .223AI though. Might do a search.
In a Tikka Varm .223AI, I get 2940 fps with FF loads using 25.7 gr LVR and 2910 fps with 25.5 gr TAC.

In formed WW cases, I ran about a thousand rounds through the rifle using 27 gr TAC at over 3100 fps, but intermittent primer blanking issues caused me to back down to 26 gr for 3015 fps.

75 ELD's?

Bbl length?


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!
