I just purchased a new Tikka T3X Lite in 300 Win Mag. I haven't shot it yet (waiting on the glass to arrive) however I was wondering if anyone had any insight on some good places to start as far as hand loads go. I am fairly partial to Hornady, however I am open to try other things. I have heard the Tikka doesn't like the ELD-X bullets very well. Has that been the case with anyone with experience? Does anybody have any good powder/bullet combos that have worked well in the Tikka rifle? I will stick by the book for recipes, its just that their are hundreds of combinations and I don't really feel like dropping a small fortune to get a good load combo. I plan on shooting 180 grain bullets.
Also any advice on reloading magnum ammo? I have reloaded 223 to 30-06 but this is my first magnum rifle so i was hoping I could learn any tips and tricks.
