[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 319469, member: 20355"] I got a doz 6mm 105gr Lapua Scenar freebies from a dude on another forum. He had a 1:10 twist and couldnt get them to stabilize. My 1:9 AR barrel seemed to handle the 105's very well, no key holes even at the lightest load of RL17. Dont plan on going much higher than 105's. I may also be considered stupid for showing interest in competition bullets like the Noslers I noted earlier but in my own personal experience, the ability for a bullet to hold together on big game is very "hit and miss" if you will excuse the pun. My 75gr Vmax didnt hold together AT ALL on this recent antelope. All i found was a shredded jacket in the opposite shoulder of the entry. Not much different with my old 100gr Winchester Factory soft points. No lead to speak of on 50% of my shots. Nothing left but shards of jacket. [/QUOTE]
