[QUOTE="Elkdeerhunter, post: 1624204, member: 108851"] I was in the process of getting a 8 twist barrel for my new to shoot the berger 180 or eld 175 and was going to test the 195 bergers but then I read an article the other day in Terminal Ballistics that using the 8 twist barrel will cause accuracy issues and bullet tumbling with 168 gr bullets as well as the 180 grain bullets at longer distances, say over 500 yrds. I dont want to just have a single use barrel for the 195 as this is a hunting rig and need to shoot different bullets for different purposes although main use for this 7mm is potentially long range elk hunting, hence also testing the 195 gr as well,,,, Anyone have this experience using an 8 twist barrel and 7mm mag? Thanks for any hel Elkdeerhunter [/QUOTE]
