I too am looking for the perfect load for the Swede...working with RE22...RE19..H4350 & H4831...bullets have been the ole' 140-120 Rem Core Loc...129 SST.....120 NBT...140 Sierra GK...Lapua brass & Rem brass......asst' primers...I've only had the rifle two weeks...weather sure hasn't been great...
At the 358 Win velocities (2400-2600 fps) are the 35 caliber 225 Nosler ABs and 250 Nosler PTs well suited for this caliber ? Or better suited for the Whelen and 350 mag velocities....TIA .......
Very clear optics...postitive click adj.......nice scopes !! I only have one, a 3-10x40 on my Tikka 7-08. I would have the 6-20 if they would put target tower adjustments on them. For normal big game rifles, you can't go wrong with the GS.
Took this extreme range p/dog on 10/16/04 using my Savage s/shot Pac Nor 1x8 twist barrel..using 107 SMKs..Lapua 308 brass..H4895 powder...scope is Leupold 6-18 Target with Burris Signature rings...optional inserts added...this LR kill exceded my July 04 kill of 1241 yds with same rifle load...
This is a 260 Ackley 1x8 twist....built on a s/shot Savage action...Pac Nor barrel....Choate Varminter........SSS trigger..but now wears a Leo 6-18 Target.......with tweeked Burris Signature rings, for punching hole in p/dogs @ 1000+ yds.......its a hoot to shoot !! Sierra 107 & 142 MKs...my...

Yes....I want 'em..............building a Pac Nor 1x9 223 AI for next summer's p/dog bustin'. I use Noslers BTs in my 223s and 6BR....There are no good varmint grade bullets for the quick twist shooters. Lets have some high BC heavy varmint bullets Nosler.

Here's my latest project rifle....Savage s/shot with Pac Nor 1x12 twist 223 Ackley Improved chamber........This is with 50 rds or so out of new barrel. Seems to like Benchmark & H4895

Just built a Pac Nor 1x12 223 AI....this is a screamer....2 weeks running....p/dogs out to 733 yds with Nosler 55s. I love it !! In fact just sent Pac Nor a deposit for a second one...a 1x9 twist. First is 1x12. My main 55 gr load is 27.5/Benchmark....Win case...Rem BR primer..OAL is...
I want one !!!!!! 223 of course !! I sent Beretta an e mail when I first learned of the new T3 Varmint SS. Asked when/if would be available in USA in Lam/SS.......never heard back.........The Tikka is great.......Too bad Beretta hasn't the time to respond to consumers. I'll keep buying/building...
I have two pre T3 Tikkas...223 & 7-08 SS/syn. Great rifles !! Accurate & fit & Finnish excellent. The T3s are one action length now, opposed to long & short before. Barrels...same as the 75 Sako, and assembled in the same factory. Some complain about the plastic trigger gaurd. My only...
