Morning all, gonna throw some 95 gr Targex in front of some Adi 2209 a bit later on.
Has anyone loaded these in a Tikka? Just keen on actual load data as I have 20 of them for testing.
Loaded some vmax 87 that shot ok with 42 gr of 2209 but they could use some work and will try another grain in there and see how they go.
Chambering and caliber might be helpful if you are after load data.
I used 95gr targex in 243win with 2208 with great results even tho it should be a bit fast burning for that weight class projectile.
.243 in a standard Tikka.
What sort of speed were you getting?
Have a yarn with Tahr, he has used them in 243
243
95 grn Targex

Dont have my data but I think it was around 3000 from memory.Quote:

Initial load done with 41gr 2209 got me 2850 from the 22inch barrell.
Very windy today so will have a crack at some decent groups tomorrow but signs were good.
Using 43 grains of AR2209, CCI large rifle primer, privy partisan cases in a Remington Model 7 in .243
Great wee projectiles that kill well
Yeah I think I'll speed mine up too. Just loaded some more vmax as I ran out of the Targex. They certainly kill well.
Upped the Vmax to 43 grains 2209 thats giving me 3030fps in my rifle with no signs of pressure.
