Thread: .22TCM Micro Varmint rifle build

@R93 Yes I am starting to pin a lot of the velocity spread on the idiosyncrasies of the small case. The TCM has a very thick neck due to its parent case being .223rem so neck tensions are very tight. Also just like hornet, tiny variations in powder charges or primers equate to big changes in velocities.
Flat based bullets have been a real challenge to seat concentric so many of them will be meeting the lands off center. The first 5 shots or 40gr V-Max show real promise so Ill continue working up a load with them.

I also need to get my hands on some Nosler varmageddons as they have a nice little boat tail too.
Although I built this rig primarily as a intermediate range varminting platform, I should probably see how the 50-55gr bullets go too.
All in all its a neat little round that would be useful in all the same areas a .22 hornet is and in some scenarios maybe perform a little better.
Did you find the 300MP cleaner in hornet too?
