I read somewhere recently that the Sierra 107 Gr BTHP Match bullet could be launched from a n 8 twist barrel with the same success as a 140-155gr bullet. The source stated that the bearing surface of the 107gr was identical to the 140-155's. Anyone out there with some practical application to this therory?
My 6.5 Gibbs shoots great with the 140-155 class bullets. However it would be interesting to see if the lighter bullet could perform as well. Because I am cheap (really, I'm not cheap just married)I don't want to buy a box of bullets that I may find won't work for my rifle.
Thanx for any help.
