[QUOTE="Garycrow, post: 1087327, member: 30743"] I have a 7mm rem mag with a 1-9 twist. I was thinking about trying the 168 LRX but according to the berger twist calculator they won't stabilize properly at sea level. Barnes says a 1-9 will work with them so I e-mailed them and they replied that 1-9 worked for them at altitude but they didn't know if it'd work at sea level because they hadn't tried it. They recommended the 145 LRX if you wanted to use them at lower altitudes. Given that the manufacturer can't guarantee that a 1-9 twist will stabilize the 168 LRX, I'd be very hesitant to use that bullet in a 1-10 twist. [/QUOTE]
