[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 2263396, member: 33159"] I don't know the answer and sent an email to Steve about it. My guess is since the bearing surface area of the Absolute line is different than the Hunters. Sometimes your gun just doesn't love the bullet you want to feed it. I also think the twist rate and the higher velocity may play a role here. I have a 1:9 twist in my 280AI and minimal twist for the 140 AH is 1:9.25. It may just not stabilize the bullet enough in this case. We are finding that it's better to have a much faster twist rate for the Absolutes than to be closer to minimum twist rate. [/QUOTE]
