[QUOTE="Oldtime Shooter13, post: 2060106, member: 109503"] I have checked the twist rate in this rifle and it is 1:7.5. This rifle should shoot the 110 and maybe 115 grain bullets? I have read some articles where shooters have seated half of bullet diameter to get closer to the lans. They are also shooting primarily off a bench. That is what I am doing at this point in load development. I am going to start seating bullets into the case deeper at .010 increments and see where the journey takes me. I am going to have to reduce my charges back to staring as I seat bullets deeper. Didn’t really want to do that, but if I can get seated a little deeper will make bullet more stable in the neck for hunting. I have these 107 at 3100 FPS without any signs of pressure. Seating deeper my pressure is going to increase. [/QUOTE]
