[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 3077655, member: 109862"] Those lazzeronis have less aggressive twists don’t they? I’ve always found running lightweights in big cases with aggressive fast twists resulted in suboptimal accuracy. The 120 is indeed a bit different but still a copper mono with no drive bands. HBN does allow a little more juice haha. I ain’t arguing with you here (And am a little jealous of your rifle inventory!) but this is kinda what I’m saying still: the huge firebird is only beating your 7rem mag by 250 fps and a couple hundred foot pounds of muzzle energy with the light 120s…I’m still guessing the difference in obtainable muzzle energy will be more pronounced when shooting heavy for caliber slugs out of each case. Of course I could be wrong, but that’s just what I’ve generally observed. [/QUOTE]
