New Foxing Rifle (Dedicated Thermal) - Looking for Input

[Envillegc1]

I was using a tikka T3 1 in 12 twist with 55gn’s and I was pretty successful with it but it was always in my mind that I should have gone for a 1 in 8 twist to use something slightly heavier for windy nights.

I use 53gr Vmax, but not full speed. It will easily clover leaf at 100 yds and is pretty flayt to 200 yds.

As regards trajectory and wind 243, 22-250 and 20 ruger are round about level pegging until its a tough longer wind call ( then actual bullet matters a lot )........ However when we use" best" A 22 hornet is absoloutly brilliant denning cubs inside 200 yards and similar jobs . Around 10 grains of powder and a good moderator - So Very much depends on how we judge the rules of what" best" actually means in context !

Should stabilise up to 80 grain.

Yes must try some heavier rounds

You missed a great buy. Woodlander had a. 204 with a 1.9 so ideal for 39grn Bzk
204 infinity better than a .223 for foxing and everything else.

Cz 527 in 204 for me 32 or 40 gn vmax or roll your own..

Tikka are doing 16in 223 that would be handy
