208muley Report post Posted October 7, 2016 A buddy just bought this gun and wants to know what is a good factory ammo for it. I'm no help as I don't have a 7. He is not a reloader. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe Report post Posted October 7, 2016 Barnes 140 ttsx and nosler 160 accubond both shoot great. Hornady is hit and miss with tikkas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AverageJoe Report post Posted October 7, 2016 For factory ammo the barnes and nosler shoot best in most tikkas. Just the way it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basser15 Report post Posted October 7, 2016 I have that rifle and have found the Hornady Superperformance, 162 grain has been working very well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
208muley Report post Posted October 7, 2016 Thanks for all the suggestions fellas. I will let him know about those. I gave him some old crap I had laying around and it shot them at about 1.5 moa. So with good ammo I'm sure it will improve a lot. Thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
