[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2871620, member: 122164"] V max and burgers may not give desired results as their base may cave in due to rotational torque during obturation. If you see issues, immediately try the 90 and 95g Nosler Ballistic tips, as their thick "solid base" resists the deformation due to rotational torque. Hemiford, use a ballistic program and see what twist works with a 1.5 stabilization factor, and choose twist accordingly. Also, you may want a 1* leade angle vs 1.5* leade angle. Since you are talking V max, Make the throat dia .2440-.2445 as some lot numbers are running a .2435 dia on the shank, you do not want jacket material being scraped off in the throat which would spike pressure. I know a guy here that is shooting the 55g,70g, Nosler ballistic tips on deer out of a 6 Gibbs at incredible speeds that I will not repeat, very slow twisted, 30" barrel. [/QUOTE]
