[QUOTE="jsimonh, post: 465857, member: 26029"] Thanks for the reply Kiwi. I'm hoping that if these bullets can stabilize in a 7mm-08 going 2500ish fps that leaving my barrel at 2850 will make up for the difference in twist rate. I talked to the Techs at Berger today and was told the best thing would be to just try them and see what happens. Buying a box for 50 bucks to realize after the first 3 shots that they won't work will kinda suck, but I ordered some and will do some testing anyways. I sure thought there would be more people that have tried this bullet in something other than 9 twist as a lot of the factory rifles offer 9.25 and 9.5 barrels. [/QUOTE]
