I have a seekins havak 300 prc coming and was curious if guys have had good luck with 215s in a 1:10 twist. Bergers calculator says I'm good as long as I get them to 2975 which should be pretty doable. Just looking for real life experience

The 215 hybrids are fine in a 1:10,
If you want to get the best BC you can out of them, a faster twist will help with that.
Atmospherics (air pressure and temperature) can have a significant effect on stability, but the bottom line is they will stabilize and fly straigt at sea level out of a 1:10.

I've launched the 215s through an 18 inch 10T 300WM @ 2750 with no issue.
I believe the 300Prc comes with 8twt.
But 215 work very well with 10twt.
OMG. A 18" flame thrower.
That's Great, I wanted to do that years ago, but my dad talked me out of it,.
The seekins are a 1:10 according to the website. Only 300 prc I have seen with a 10 twist
Suppress it, it's not too bad. Just make sure your can manufacturer is fine with the cartridge at that length. Some only suggest 20 is the minimum.OMG. A 18" flame thrower.
