    Tikka 7mmprc load

    Just got a mate that bought one of these.
    Has any one done a load for the hornady 175 eldx with adg brass and 2217?
    just to get up and going!

    If you think just straight up copying somebody elses recipe is a good idea you should stick to factory ammo.

    I was going to use that as a starting point and go up in five grain increments till the action exploded to see where pressure is.
    But thanks for your concern!

    You do all the testing Andy then let me know.
    I'm about to start on my Tikka 7PRC this week but I'm going to use 180 ELDM.
