[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1828718, member: 30671"] I can’t recall where along the way, but someone said a 1 to 6 ratio of caliber to total bullet length, was about as long as feasible in the mono’s, and we’ve come to feel that’s likely more accurate than not. As has been said the 137 Hammer Hunter worked well, and is near that 1-6 ratio maximum. Looking at other heavy 6.5 mono’s available they also seem to be near this length, and may benefit from the faster twist of this rifle. The next interesting question is how the 124 Hammer Hunter will fare in this larger case, and aggressive twist. Hopefully weather etc permits this soon. [/QUOTE]
