[QUOTE="257speed, post: 93841, member: 2314"] Tommy, I have just recently started playing with these in my 7mm ultra mag. Most likely, your 9.25 twist will not adequetly stabilize this bullet. Also with a 24" tube, velocities would be disappointing. I would stick with the 175's until you change barrels. Then twist with a 1/8 or better yet, 1/7. The 7 stw is a great round, but I would not write off the 7mm Ultra just because you have a 300 ultra. For the 200's, you really need a large case to get good velocity. As far as one twist to cover from 150's to 200's, there really isn't one. The rule of thumb is to twist for the heaviest bullet you plan to shoot and then test and see if it shoots the lighter weights. Good luck [/QUOTE]
