[QUOTE="Jimm, post: 102943, member: 9"] Budlight hey ! My 243 Ai is 26" Schneider bbled 7.5 twist . It will stabilize the the 105/107/115 gr bullets which , if you are looking for long range ( say past 800 ) theser are the weights you want to shoot . Now , not trying to pick a fight with anyone but even Sierra says at least 8 twist for the 107 smk's . I have a load for my 243Ai that is producing es 20 something and sd below 10. This is at 3050 fps . It is a below max load and is giving great brass life using Lapua brass . Load is as follows : 107 smk , 41.6 grs H-4350, Fed. 210gm primer , Lapua brass ( only prep after fireforming is to trim to length ). This combo is producing .5 " groups ( best ) to .7 groups ( avg ) @ 300 yds and 2.5" @ 700 yds ( best ). Anyway , this is my favorite caliber for the small stuff and over the years it has proven itself over and over . May your experience with it be good as well . BTW , do you really drink that stuff ? Budlight I mean , cuz they are ripping you off if so [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Jim B.
