[QUOTE="mnshortdraw, post: 2018512, member: 62263"] One thing I’ve found over the years is to never assume a rifle is going to like a particular bullet weight based on twist rate. It will get you in the ballpark but that’s about it. I have an 8 twist 308 that won’t shoot 175’s worth a darn but loves 165’s and lighter. I have another 308 with a 12 twist that loves 175’s but not the lighter stuff. Try some 165’s next and take your time to avoid barrel heat. [/QUOTE]
