[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2602828, member: 313"] For those who are disintegrating bullets: I ran a 22-243AI, 8 twist, for quite some time. The rifle preferred the 75 A-Max so that's what it got fed. I ran bullets at 3,670 ft/sec and never lost a single bullet even though the A-Max bullets are fragile and other shooters were "dusting" them. I think the reason that I never had a problem was because I was moly coating and waxing the bullets at the time. Keeping the jackets as slippery as possible most likely reduced the stress on the jackets as they endured the engraving process. If you are dusting bullets, it may be worth a try using any one of the new bullet coatings. [/QUOTE]
