[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1763611, member: 104363"] I've had problems stabilizing the "long for weight" Barnes bullets, in a 9.25 twist 7mag. The box said " for 9.5 twist minimum". It was keyholing at 100 yards on my rifle. This particular rifle you're discussing may be on the thin edge of stabilized or not stabilized and showing up at a bit of a distance, with just this ammo. I agree with above, try different ammo or hand loads with a 185 grain Berger or that minimum weight class in another manufacturer. Barnes just seem to like higher twist rates than advertised in my rifles. [/QUOTE]
