Anyone using the 165gr tgk in a t3x 7rm. I've got a good accurate load using 162gr eldx but was always keen on using the tgk from using Sako factory ammo with the same bullet before i started reloading for it.
Bought some and loaded up a few rounds to try , same deal as my eldx load ,although i backed off the load a bit to allow for a different bullet etc ,and seated to fit the mag same as the eldx but results were bit disappointing with 3 shot groups in the 1-25 1-5 inches range, whereas my eldx load i can cut the bullet holes if i do my part.
The powder I'm using is imr 8133 which has always worked good with other projectiles ive used but is unobtainable now so ill have to find an alternative when my supply runs out so thought id try and see if those tgks like another powder.
Found some Sierra load data online that recommends reloader 25 as there most accurate load with this bullet along with reloader 23.
Otherwise ill try some 2225/retumbo or h1000/ adi 2217. Any info /advice is much appreciated.
