Anyone out there running factory Hornady 140gr eld-m 6.5 CM ammo out of a 16" tikka? What kind of velocities are you getting? Seems like it might be the easy button for a 50 state legal RSS.
I got a velocity of roughly 2500 FPS out of my 20” CTR using factory 140-ELDM loads. I’d guess you’ll get about 2400 FPS with a 16” barrel and factory 140’s. I’m making a 6.5CM RSS off a Tikka lite and cutting my barrel to 18” for what it’s worth.Anyone out there running factory Hornady 140gr eld-m 6.5 CM ammo out of a 16" tikka?
