RE: Short Yardage Setup

Yeah, I have good accuracy with 100gr. I just don't know if it will be okay with that much power at less than 50 yds. If it will, I'll leave it with what I got.

RE: Difference Between Tikka Hunter and Tikka Lite

Just remember that because it is so light, it will do a number on your shoulder. I have one in 7mm rem mag and after 10 shots yesterday, I felt like I had pitched 9 innings.

RE: what are the hottest new bullet/sabots on the market?

It seems that the plastic from the sabot would fill the rifling in the barrell, therefore making them less effective on the bullet. And then wouldn't that make the barrell harder to clean?
