Hi there,
I just wonder if someone has some advice or experience using 7mm 139gr GMX in a 16' barrel 7mm08 tikka 595 or similar?
I am not even sure if this kind of projectile is suitable ie expansion with lower velocity?
I would like to use them for hunting deer,pigs,goats up to 300yard max.
I was going to use nosler 120gr BT but thought I might use these ones first as I have a box lying around.
I got BM2, Win.748 and CFE223 powder on hand.
any advice is much aprecciated:)
Yip. Might be a bit hard mate. Although never used them so don't know for sure. I use 120 bts in a 16.5 inch 7 08 at about 2880fps and seem to work really well.
Cheers mate!
If I can be honest mate I'd much prefer another bullet type, standard SP or 140 BT. I have never seen the GMX perform well on deer.

I get some nosler 120 BT and see how they do:)
