[QUOTE="new2mud, post: 1939384, member: 24831"] I believe many of us running shorter barrels have found easier, more forgiving loads due to shorter barrels having less barrel whip than a longer barrel of the same contour. A 1:10 twist should shoot pretty much any bullet--I shoot 110-grain V-max for prairie dogs up to 208-grain A-max with my 20" .308 barrel. I don't believe I caught where you stated what brand barrel it is. The lore with .308s is that if you're not finding a suitable load with Varget and 175 SMKs or 185 Juggernauts, it could just be a poor barrel. [/QUOTE]
