Hi guys,
{After having just paid a fortune for a box of 100 grain B/Tips}
I am on the verge of starting to reload for my Tikka T3 Hunter in 25.06
The barrel is 22'' with a 1-10 twist rate.
Initially I am looking to reload a 115 grain bullet for the red hinds throughout the winter....
I am lead to believe that the 25.06 prefers a slower burning powder, however due to the barrel only being 22'' would it be worth considering a medium burn rate powder.
I was hoping to reach velocities of over 3000fps to keep things quite flat but also hoping to better my factory shot groups.
Any advice on powder / bullet heads..............infact any bloody advice at all would be well received.
Regards,
CADEX
