[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 2042145, member: 1403"] Hornady advertises the 180g ELDMs at .816 from an 7.5 twist, I've got them at around .750 from my 9 twist and actual drops figured out to 1400 yards. So even if they are both at .750, I wont gain anything from the 195s because theyll be starting about 100-150fps slower than the 180s. I had this built 7 years ago before all these new slippery 7mm bullets were built, that's why I have the 9 twist. Once I shoot this barrel out, I'll be going with an 8 twist so I can get the full value BCs. [ATTACH type="full"]231148[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
