Went out shooting today and had a couple of problems, both guns I shot were Tikka T-3's. First one a 22-250 that I had just cleaned last night, I guess 4 different times when opening the bolt it didn't pull out the empty case. Had to recycle the bolt and then it worked oka. Last night I loaded...

Steellhead, sorry if I came off wrong but I thought it was a slam on Tikks's and the post. Just got done reading some posts on another (Hunting & Fishing)site and that site has gotten way out of hand with all the bad posts. That used to be a good site but now its who can find fault with anything...

Steelhead: I did not ask the question what every one thought of Tikka guns! They are a good firearm. WHAT MY PROBLEM WAS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE GUN, regardless of what you think, own or likel I BELIEVE THIS SITE IS WAY TO GOOD FOR COMMENTS LIKE THIS.

Just interested in if anyone out there is shooting a Tikka T-3 Lite in the 22-250? What kind of loads are you shooting and happy with? Thanks

I check and trim all my cases when I load. I haven't shot the cases that much but I have been full lengh resizing every load, but as I stated earliar I bought a neck resizer. Thanks

Pop, thanks for the info, what was I thinking. Kept thinking it was the bullets. dah! Never had just a neck resizer, but bought one today, Not going to try an use full full lengh and adjust. Thanks again

I just bought a Tikka t3 lite 22-250. Went out to shoot it the other day and tried some reloads I had, shot loads I had loaded up with 50 gr Nosler bts and 40 gr V-max(loads I have the COL between 2.35 & 2.38) all worked great and then I tried some Sierra 55 gr spitzers(COL at 2.35) and the...

Thanks! I had a problem with my computer and had to reformat, lost every thing I had in my favorites, have it back now, thanks again.

Does anyone know the name of the site where you can buy, sell, trade in scopes ect? I believe it starts with the letter S and I think I initially found the site name on this site. Thanks

Thanks for the replies guys, I see in the Nosler book it starts out with 55 gr(h4831sc) as there most accuate load tested for this bullet(by them), by bumping that load up to the 59-61 gr do you still get some good accuracy?

Wanting to load some 130 gr Nosler Silvertips up for deer hunting, any one have any info on these? Will be shooting out of a Rem 700 and looking at using H4831SC. Thanks

Weatherby has come out with a basic level Vanguard (at least this is the first year I have seen it) which sells for $400, does any one have any info on this gun? My son's birthday is coming up at the end of the month and am looking at buying a varmint gun (probally a 22-250) for him. I want to...

What do you guys prefer to use for shooting/sighting in your guns? Bags or some type of shooting/rifle rests. Looking at buying a rifle rest(any better that others) and just wonder if it wold be alittle more convenient than dragging the bags out all the time. Thanks

Curious if anyone out there has adjusted or have any knowledge on adjusting the trigger on a Ruger M-77(heavy barrel)? Its a older one, probally built in the early 80's. How big of job would it be to put a timney trigger or other after market on it? Thanks

Anyone have any good loads that they are happy with for this bullet. Had a few boxes given to me some years back for my 22-250 and never loaded them up and guess its time to give them a try. Thanks!

Looking at getting a Leupold VX-III 4.5-14X40 for my 22-250 ruger(400 yards and under, varmints) and am considering the Boone and Crocket reticles, is this a good choice? Should I look at others? Thanks

Just picked up a Ruger M77 22-250 cal(hevi barrel) any one out there have some varmint loads I could look at starting out with? Coyote and fox will be my two main targets(would like to save the hides). Has a older Redfield 3-9 on it, a good scope but woulld like something in more in the line for...

I purchased a Tikka 25-06 for my son as his first deer rifle and after shooting it some myself I thought I like to try it on coyotes, does any one have any good bullets/loads they are happy with? I want a bullet that will have good killing power but will not tear the hide up much? Thanks
