[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1829177, member: 68875"] The box says "1:8" twist MINIMUM". Key word being MINIMUM. I have shot them in a 1:8" 6.5SAUM @2974fps, and they flew great out to 858 so far. Very accurate. I run them is a 1:7.5" @ 3020fps, and accuracy is amazing. I also shoot the 131 Hammers @ 3220fps, and wow. Out to 921, they have been crazy accurate. But BC is lower than claimed. I wanted to shoot the 137s, but was worried about twist too. Glad I stayed with the 131s and run them lightning fast. Bartlein, Mullerworks, Kreiger, Rock Creek, & Proof all make a 6.5mm 1:7.5" Probably can call and order a 6.5mm 1:7" from a few too. Bruno's has a Kreiger 6.5mm 1:7" heavy palma in stock now.
