Ok thanks I didn’t want to go buy some if they wouldn’t work thanks again I have some 75 EDLM to try also .Yes - Start jumping 5thou, 10, 20, 30 see what it likes. I like to jump my B80.5 -.010 off lands in a Bolt Rifle and Service Rifle. the 28" 1/8 should do fine.
Well I have H4350 RL 26 RL 26 & N550 I have lots of different types of powder thinking H4350 ?Depending on the Chamber you have the 75 and 80 ELDM may worth trying in the rifle too.
We are currently using 88ELDM in a Factory FTR rig but we opened the throat up since we want to try the little 223 at FTR long range.
This factory chamber was a saami and we had to set the B80.5 back a bit to fit the chamber compared to the Wylde in our service rifles. It shot lights out but it is a 7 twist. Lot of us in Service Rifle use the B80.5 in the 20" XTC game for 600 yds line. Some run 7, some 7.5, some 7.7 and some 8 twists. I have never had an issue in a 8 twist using an 80 gr in a 20" tube.
What Powder will you using?

I might have to try it in my tikka 223 super varmint it has a 1/8 twist right now I’m shooting the 53 v max with good results but may try a heavier bulletThanks guys all good information
Life can be short, try them all...I might have to try it in my tikka 223 super varmint it has a 1/8 twist right now I’m shooting the 53 v max with good results but may try a heavier bullet
Ya I’m going to try few I have 69 smk 77 TMK & non tipped and others plenty to tryLife can be short, try them all...
Don't forget to try the 69 - 77 class bullets too.
The 77 TMK comes closer to the BC of the 80 grain class than it does to the older 77 OTM. The Hornady match and hunting bullets are worth a look too, and much easier to find, plus many of them can be run at standard magazine length. YMMV
