    Extreme velocity monos.

    MTorWY, I have 166 gr HH out of my Tikka M695 in 30-06 3,000Fps with H4350. I just got a new Weatherby Vanguard in .270 that I am working up a load with the 117gr HH. And my wife’s Tikka T3 Superlite in 6.5 Creedmoor is pushing a 110 gr HH @ 3,250 FPS.

    Optics/Bullet for First Elk Tag

    I have a Tikka M695 in 30-06. I loaded up 166gr HH in it. I have yet to put a round into an elk but there is no doubt that’s what I will be shooting. I get sub MOA out to 500.

    6.5 Hammer bullet Q

    In my experience with the 6.5 Creedmoor, Varget is the powder for bullets 120gr and under. Above that and I would say H4350 is my favorite. That being said, there are some really good options in the Reloader powders but I haven’t been able to get my hands in any.

    6.5 Hammer bullet Q

    I have loaded up the 110HH in my wife’s Tikka T3X SL in 6.5 Creedmoor. I ended up going with 44.0 gr of Varget. It holds sub MOA out to 500 yards. That is the farthest I have been able to stretch them out. Here is some of my load work up.

    Favorite reloading powders for hunting

    If I had to chose only one it would be H4350. I have great rounds worked up for my 30-06 and my 6.5 creedmoor. If I could have two I would take Varget.

    117g HH or 126gHH

    I was going to do a post on here about my load development in my Tikka M695 30-06 and we Wife’s Tikka T3X super light in 6.5 Creedmoor. I am shooting the 110 HH in the 6.5. I am getting 3,260 with 44.0Gr Varget.

    Best broadhead for elk?

    I have used 100gr Slick Tricks. They fly great for me. I have not been the happiest with the blood trail though. But I have shot a 6x5 bull, a cow elk, and a few other bucks and does and they have all died fast with one arrow. Just not much of a blood trail.

    117g HH or 126gHH

    Here is what my Tikka M695 likes. Nosler brass. Right at 3,000

    New Barrel Break In

    I am thinking to do some light load development with some sst’s for the first 100 rounds. And then find my load for the 117 gr HH.

    117g HH or 126gHH

    Do either of you gentlemen have a powder and starting point?

    New Barrel Break In

    This has been my method too. It has served me well in the past. Just always like make sure I’m not missing something.

    New Barrel Break In

    Congrats on your 25-06. I won this rifle at a banquet dinner. I’m not mad at the .270 but if I could have picked a caliber it would have been the 25-06.

    Rings and Bases recommendation

    Those look fantastic WestKyHunt! Tunable for sharing. How are you liking your Vanguard? What is it chambered in?
