[QUOTE="daniel745, post: 484381, member: 29556"] My preferred hunting bullet was a 140gr. Barnes X but I've run out, and they no longer make them in a flat base. I,ve tried the Nosler AB and a Sierra boattail but can't get the same accuracy. The rifle is a Ruger 77 MK 2. I don't know the twist, but you may have a point about not being enough to stabilize the boattail. I would not have thought it would be a problem with a 140 gr. but I could be wrong. Almost all of the premium hunting bullets I could find are boattail, except the Partition, which I may have to try. Thanks for the input. [/QUOTE]
