Tikka T3x superlite--What ammo for yotes

[jbfastcat]

I just bought a t3x superlite .243 at sportsmans warehouse. First of all I don't reload. What factory ammo is everyone shooting for yotes? I have some Barnes Vortex 80 grain TTSX that work great for deer but might be a little over kill for coyotes. I was thinking about trying either the 58 or 75 grain v-max superformance. In the end I will end up using whatever the gun likes the best. If its anything like my other tikkas it probably won't be very fussy at all. I believe it has 9.5 twist. Now I have to decide if I want to go dnz or tally.

The Hornady 58s shot great out of my 243 back before I reloaded. I'm sure their 75s would be great as well!

I bet you will like the superlight and it's good balance.

Yeah I have 2 other tikkas that I really like but this superlite just feels absolutely perfect in the hands when you pull it up. Can't wait to get it up and running.

About the same here. Forgot, I added the grip for about $17 and a couple min to swap. Well worth it for my hands.

Where did you order the grip from. What did you like about it over the standard one.

I shoot 40 round boxes of Winchester 58gr Varmint-X that I bought from Fleet Farm. Cheapest varmint ammo that I found and it shoots very accurately out of my T3 Lite .243.

I also like the vertical grip add-on to the t3x stock. It's a 1:10 twist, I'd probably look at the 75gr Vmax load first.

I got the Optilok rings and grip on sale at Beretta USA. Guess the grip was $19.
It's more vertical with more swell. It's pictured in this thread.

Thanks. I might have to give that grip a try. Kind of looks like the grip angle on my pro hunter and that feels really good.
