[QUOTE="Elkeater, post: 1784052, member: 103670"] I have a x bolt hells canyon long range with the 8 twist barrel in .300 win mag. I shoot hammer bullets mostly. 181gr, 199gr, 214gr Hammer Hunters have all shot great. Settled on the 199s. Experiments with 215 bergers were successful with a .75 MOA load in about 20 shots but I never fiddled much after that because I fell in love with the hammers. I’ve also run 168 eld-m’s sub MOA with no work up just a mid range charge of reloader 22. I was just using them to fire form virgin brass to my chamber. So no I don’t think there is a disadvantage to running a 8 twist in a .300 win mag. Also I’m not sure about that rifle but look into the m Carbo trigger spring. My trigger adjusted down to a crisp 2 lbs. and I think timney makes an aftermarket trigger for that rifle too. [/QUOTE]
