[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2209121, member: 30671"] We worked a little on a 168 grain 6.5, and didn't quite get the balance. I won't say I've let go of the idea regarding a heavier mono, just that the process isn't linear, and more than just spinning them on the lathe is needed. With a 6.5 Ultracat we achieved 3700fps, but began experiencing dynamic stability issues (tipping) at 200 yards. A .277 being a little shorter at that weight may be different, but a 1 to 6 length ratio seems to be a good rule for mono's. I'd love to see it done, or even just discuss it. PM me before we go to far sideways. [/QUOTE]
