[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 556288, member: 12"] Most FTR guys are using the 11 or 11.25 twist, with a few at 10 or 12, and the dominant bullet being the Berger 185. They are running them with the longer barrels (30") to 2850. You need to run the 178 to around 2650 which is quite easy to achieve in most guns. Otherwise, they can be unstable at longer ranges. The 168 will to 900 yards and then it starts tumbling. So most people do not bother with the 168 for LR. Shorter ranges it is OK. [/QUOTE]
