[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1796886, member: 103303"] Everyone seems to be missing the fact that the 168LRX requires a 1:8 twist. Copper has a lower density than lead, which makes all copper bullets longer than their lead core counterparts (like a 168gr Berger). It's this excess length that can cause stability issues. Consider stepping down to the 139 or 145gr LRX. Been hearing good things about the 143gr Hammer Hunter. [/QUOTE]
