[QUOTE="Jinx, post: 930768, member: 11512"] Hallo to all, My wife bought me a Remington 700 SF 308 Win for my 30th b-day (yes I have an awesome wife). The barrel is 26 inch and 1:12 twist. I want to use the rifle for bush hunting - kudu, blue-wildebeest etc (distance up to 400 yards). But I also want to use the rifle for target shooting at the hunting association I am with. I understand that the 1:12 twist prefers light bullets. I want to use 165gr Noslers for hunting and a lighter bullets for target shooting and varminting. In light of the above I have two questions: 1. What is the heaviest bullet that will stabalise in the 1:12 twist 2. What is the lightest bullet which you guys think I can use for target practice We are quite limited on powder options over here so I will use what the supplier has. I want to standardize the bullets I use in order prevent continues load development. Any comments will be appreciated [/QUOTE]
