Tikka T3x .243 Win 1500 Yards Attempt! 87 Gr. Vmax
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 09. 2017
- Here is a look at my first attempt at 1500 yards with 87 Gr varmit bullets out of the factory Tikka. Lots of bullet drop and passing through the trans sonic zone while retaining consistency. I ran out of ammo and my ballistic charts were bad. I messed up the barometric pressure. Lessons learned, ready for the next attempt!

The random things that come up in a person's suggested viewing. I have that same rifle with a Meopta Meopro 6-18x50 as my do everything rifle using the same rounds. I believe you guys over in the US have Outback Ammunition, which is marketed here in Australia as Australian Outback ammo, as well as being sold as Buffalo River ammo (different company but same ammo) with a stated velocity of 3213 fps at the muzzle.
My other rifles, in particular my super economical to run 223, are being neglected because I'm loving the versatility, accuracy and knockdown power of the 243 with 87gn V-Max! Primarily shoot vermin under HID spotlight, most shots would be around 100 metres or under, the longest would be (rarely - it's my experience most people who shoot under light think they shoot further than they do, the night plays tricks on the brain estimating range...) out to 300 metres. It's obviously capable well beyond the distances I shoot.
Great rifle, calibre and bullet choice. And a great video 👍🏼
Great video! I purchased a Tikka T3 lite in .243 for my 13 year old daughter after she completed hunters safety. First time out she was shooting .5 inch groups @ 100yrds with factory ammo.
Also greetings from Layton!
Even with 20x I can't believe you can even see the targets. I'm impressed. I know you'll hit it eventually. Keep it up!
Jim Pepper thanks for the motivation dude! The targets aren't too hard to see with the scope, with the naked eye they are a speck! But man you need a good rest they move all over with the slightest movement
243 very good I have shot 3 Kudu at 480 meters with 87 vmax neck shots one shot each. The vnax is a great bullet.
You should put a camera near to the target so we can all see where the bullets land.
Watch you don’t hit the camera lol 😂
Man when I for the US Navy sealed Delta recon scout sniper we was hitting it twice that distance lol. Of course I'm kidding but thanks for the educational info on this.
Good try, dang that's the same as 3 USMC Rifle Ranges back to back. Very Awesome
Rick thanks man! I have a score to settle so i should be out and back at it soon!
A worthwhile endeavour young man!
I shoot magpie with mine. They explode on contact like a tiny artillery rd. Before people get butt hurt at the thought. I don’t like how these varmints peck out the eyeballs on new born calves. Thanks for the chat.
nobody getting butthurt here man, nice shooting, not an easy target to hit
Good effort young fella! Really like the camo job on your stock 👍🏽
This wind out here will drive you nutts on a long shot....However it will make you a better shooter. I'm shocked you had this calm of a day in September
IdahoBorne USMC yeah I think the trick is getting out there early, seems like whenever I do I am rewarded. I am not a morning person so it's a struggle!
What's the twist rate of your gun?
Suggestion: aim at the plate, dial knobs to bullet hits
Hello fiend... one custion... what is best.. scope SWFA in x10 / x16 or x20 ..? thank you
He says .243 is a little tiny varmint round. My dad has taken deer for years with this round.
The 87gr VMax is a varmint round. There are .243 bullets designed for deer, but they are usually 90-110gr
can't wait to see you get hits with ot at 1500yds. badass man. keep the videos comin!
Keith Mosley much appreciated! I loaded up the next batch of ammo so I just need another trip out and I'm hoping to make it happen! I checked out your recent video, I'll be sure to sub to your channel man. Always good to follow fellow shooters pages, cheers!
HI.. I just found this video.. Good shooting man!
May I ask what the muzzle brake was you said you used?
Thanks
Tim
I have took them out to 1000yds, but not any further. I think they are a great all around bullet.
243 Outdoors from what I was seeing, they are still holding together, when I got back I made a chart line up with my drops from previous trips and these 87s go trans sonic around 1200 yards so 300 yards beyond that and seemingly still shooting consistently! You should give a try sometime! I'm sure you would do great
Most people on CZcams assume that when a bullet goes trans-sonic it automatically tumbles. I know for a fact the ELD's in the 6.5 are still flying true at 900fps.
I wanted to see what happens for myself, and with these being a relatively small bullet i figured they would start becoming erratic
West Desert Shooter I've suggested this to 243 outdoors before, but I run rl26 in my .243. My load is supersonic to about 1400yds. I haven't tested it with the 87s yet though. Your both shooting good. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Would you care to say how your bullets are loaded ie depth and powder
Pretty impressive
So 1 degree 5 minutes at 15 hundred yards lol. Now impress me with an arc coefficient and I'll do a program in excell for you. Laid off rocket scientist here looking for something to do :) keep up the good work
Ok, it appears your firing eastward. Does this area have a prevailing breeze direction? But ya impressive bullet. It opened on p.o.i.
What powder you loading them 87gr vmax with? And how many grains
May I ask what powder and load you were using for the 87 gr V-MAX. Thanking you in advance...
Hybrid 100V pushing them at 3150 or so
those are small targets for 1500 yds. i plink a 6" plate at 400 yds with a 22 lr and its tuff, what your doing is waaaaay harder! my hats off to you!
6 inch plate 400 yards with a 22? That's good shooting in my book.
@@jiveturkey9993 thanks!! its good challenging fun. add in a 5 mph wind that 22 really starts moving around!!
@@bangsdagong I want to ask you one quick question? How far does the bullet drop at that distance?
@@jiveturkey9993 im not 100 percent sure but its around 50 mils. i have 20 moa base and burris z rings with 30 moa inserts. idial up 16 mils. its a ton! also 1200 fps ammo is SUBsonic at that range, but my interceptor ammo 1400 fps is still HYPERsonic at that distance.
We plink at a 12" gong at a measured 400 yards. Hard to see the hits and hard to hear sometimes even w/ electronic muffs, worse with wind. We've gone to 6"-8" water balloons. A lot more fun and better feed back ...
You get that elk 4 years ago?
Why more shooter need wind direction and speed flags. Just a stake with surveyers tape tied on driven in ground. Out near target location. Hins wind flag,
What kind of scope you are using amigo
I'd be happy if I could hit a bus at that distance.
Where are your safety glasses?
You know I really hate to admit it I'm starting to kind of miss my 243 killed a few deer with 243 surprisingly using the 75 grain V-Max
Timothy Robinson well I hope you can get another one if you really want one! The recoil is so manageable and a great target rifle they fly great and you can shoot all day with no bruises on the shoulder. I absolutely believe you could get a deer with a 75 Gr those lil guys are screaming out of a 243
My 243 I use a Sierra 75 gr. hollow point , my varmint load . It has dropped a couple of deer with ease at 200 yds.
James Pollard you know what really gets my goat is guys that say the 243 is too small to take midsize game and then puts her kids in a tree stand with a 223 to deer hunt with
I don't know how a 223 would do on deer , I've never tried it . I do know a 243 will put the smack to them . Even better with the 100 gr. bullet .
People in Texas hunt deer with it all the time but our deer are small for 1 and its really not suited for it. Its a varmint caliber really
I'm going to bring my North American Arms pistol over this weekend see how it patterns at 1500yards off hand. Hahhahhaha great video man!
Bring it on out we will have her shooting sub MOA in no time, might as well try in the dark to! haha much appreciated
Well I'll be, I would not want to be standing near that Target! The p. O.i. way to close.
this guy id crazy... no no he is amazing i mean...
those seems like mighty small targets for 1500 yards!! good effort but I would get a 24" ar500 square plate and see how it does, I bet you'll at least get a couple impacts once your doped in. actually I just looked at your video again and is the all red plate behind the white plates a steel target? if so you can do it but your math and the gun are going to have to be super perfect and your rest in the truck might not be ideal but again amazing effort for the distance and the caliber and bullet!!
Thanks dude! they are a very small target for that range. unfortunately I ran out of ammo but I was watching where the dust was kicking up on my last few shots and they were all within 24" of each other off the right hand side. the reason I didnt want to adjust anything was so I could see if they were still flying straight and consistent if they werent I would be chasing my own tail. they were still holding a group but by the time I figured that out I was out of bullets
well keep up the good work!! I've been shooting Hornady 58gr vmax's out of my savage .243 for bench shooting they do really well, I also have some 87gr vmax's and have never tried them yet but I'm going to start building a load for them now. After seeing your videos on the sierra 95gr tmk I really want to try those as my twist should handle them 1-9.25 I know they say 1-9 twist but close enough lol. I've used the hornady 105 Amax and thats a really long bullet and they seemed to stabilize but I think they were borderline for sure!! need that 1-8 twist barrel for those I feel.
hello wind...……………….
🇦🇺😎👍
Where are you shooting?
I am shooting in the deserts west of Salt Lake in Utah
Gombal mukiyo..
Hi! Here's a short vid of my last session at the range. It was raining as crazy. 9° Celcius in the morning nearly no wind. It's only a fifth of your distance but i was really happy to hear the gong ringing at each shots. 300m that's done. The group was the size of a hand palm (under a minute). I'm heading to 6/800m this summer. I like to shoot as fast as possible. We were only 2 shooters at the range that day, I'll send you a photo of a 15 shots group at a 100m i've done the same morning that made me very confident in my setup.

Philippe, I checked this out! Great looking range! Awesome shooting man!
You know what they say in the boy scouts be prepared
