[QUOTE="rost495, post: 140101, member: 1768"] 90s too finicky.... have shot knots in every barrel I"ve had for them in 223 so far save on PN that was not a good tube all around, IE no bullets. AS to other projectiles in 6.5 twist 20 inch tube 223 Holliger chamber..... I can shoot ANYTHING from 52 bthps up to the 90s with no issues and all submoa. No bullet blow ups. Doesn't sound like the twist affects things much at all. AND the 6.5 twist Pac Nor 3 grooves shoot the 80 range of bullets so well that many tubed up with 6.5s instead of 7s, and have no intention of touching a 90 ever, only 80s. Of course I"m talking highpower and not BR stuff, not sure where you are going, and of course I've only burned up about 15K of the 90s and only about 6 tubes so far so my experiences are only subjective at the moment. Amax would be my last choice unless they have QC and tip issues under control these days. Good lots were great, bad lots are, well not worth shooting. Jeff [/QUOTE]
