[QUOTE="NW Hunter, post: 893698, member: 23024"] I have been shooting 190 Berger's through my 300WM 11.25 twist Bartlein 5r 24" barrel at 3018fps.I had the barrel throated to the Berger 190 and it shoots it very well. I chose the 11.25 twist against advise I got from some of you guys saying that it would limit my options. I told myself that I would never shoot a bullet larger than 190 grains. Man, was I wrong! Now I want to shoot Berger 215 Hybrids through it. I emailed Berger. I was advised that the 210 VLD would stabilize easily but the 215 would be marginally stable. What do you guys think? Would I get enough velocity from a 24" tube to make the 215 lethal at long range? Has anybody tried a 210 grain bullet of any type in a 11.25 twist 300 WM? All comments please. I can take it...
