Anyone have good bullet/powder/primer combos they have worked up? How about distance to the lands/OACL's that these rifles seem to prefer?
I'm messing around with 160 gr Nosler AB's and 168 gr ABLR's with 7828 and H1000. Have only used Fed 215 primers to date.
Curious to hear other successes and failures.

I reload with a friend who shoots the 168 grain Berger N560 and fed 215. .080 off lands. Started at midddle of the road as far as powder charge book max goes. Ended up around 2930-2950 and around 65-66 grains.

I have a Remington 700 not a Tikka but it really likes the Nosler 150gr Ballistic tip boat tails. loaded to 3100fps if I remember right.
