[QUOTE="Salmonhead, post: 2709222, member: 117979"] My caution would be about the Lazzeroni choice on barrel twist. The one I dealt with was a conundrum. Huge case capacity, but a 12 twist that wouldn't stabilize a 180 class bullet. The end result was only about 75% case fill running 155 hammers. With all that case capacity, my suggeation would be to plan on running 180 to 245 class bullets, so twist with at least a 10, but preferably a 9 or even an 8 to run the heavies with all that powder capacity. Good luck with it, let us know how it turns out. [/QUOTE]
