[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 132220, member: 1007"] [b]Re: 168\'s and LTR twist??????[/b] Its good to have another conversation with you too! My opinions on velocity of the 168 in 12x is somewhat the same. 2600-2800 is hard to beat. This is only my opinion though! I have used the 168 at 763 yards on a sheep and it din't open up though. Velocity was 2661. 4000' in 60 degree air. I dont use them much anymore due to that fact and also their uncanny ability to tumble after about 800-1000 yards depending on the air density at the time.

Not saying you should switch to them, just maybee give em a try. Also, just out of curiosity, what appeals to you about the LTR over the PSS? [/QUOTE]
