[QUOTE="mrkkid, post: 2894347, member: 117846"] I use Hammer Hunter 124 grain in my 6.5 CM with a 1 in 8 twist barrel at 3080 fps. And I really like them. But I also have a 270 WSM I'm taking elk hunting with which I have used Winchester 140 grain Barnes TTSX bullets. The gun shoots better than 1 moa at 500 yards (off a bench). I have decided this year to load rounds instead and wanted to use 140 grain Hammer Hunters but Hammer says the heaviest I can use is 124 grain Hammer Hunters because my gun has a 1 in 10 twist barrel. Can somebody please tell me (in plain English as I am not physics major) why the Hunters 140's can't be stabled when the Barnes can. And if any of you have used the 140's in a 1/10 twist let me know.
