[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 1471662, member: 11132"] Theotherbave, That actually is in line with hrdy vel range 2000-3200. Makes sense I think some stress can be taken off by using a slight gain twist or .5-1” leaving the last few inches at the final angle. 9 - 8.5/8 twist. The 7 rum is known for being rough on bullets but I had always thought it was from the throat condition after a 100 or so rounds. Seems this maybe at least part of it as they did hold together for you at first. If the 180 eldm was not sucha good bullet for lr hunting it would not be such a big deal but with that because and term per at the longer ranges its too nice to not use. [/QUOTE]
