  1. I presume its .223, and your quarry will be foxes? My tikka with a 1-8 twist will shoot 40gr federal ballistic tips very well. Heavier bullets will drop too quick at extended range and will overpenetrate. The 64 grain federal soft point is aslo an accurate round I find. Hi Jonty, what do you consider to be extended range? We've tried a lot of different bullets in Deker's Tikka, which is also 1:8, they all work well. The light bullets run out of puff very quickly, so for the extended ranges I would use something a bit heavy and dial in - it will be much more accurate due to the bette
  2. can anyone recommend an accurate hunting bullet with a heavy grain?
  3. how about 204 ruger cheaper ammo than 223 can buy it in cz very coefficient flat shooting round, less recoil than 223 and less noise and will out perform 17 hmr in the wind
