[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1524871, member: 64108"] I also like to run the big heavies like the 230 Berger but I'm in a lead free state so I either get a faster twist barrel or run lighter and faster. Compare the ballistics of the 227 grain Hammer at ~3,000fps versus the 181 grain at ~3,400fps and you will see the 227 has to be past 1,200 yards before it really starts to pull away for the lighter bullet and the 181 is still ~5 MOA flatter. I have an 8 twist for my RUM and will probably run the 214 or 199 [/QUOTE]
