[QUOTE="112Savage, post: 1938174, member: 38801"] I am shooting the 75gr ELD-M through a savage 112VLP 20" which supposedly has a 1-9" twist. I also have shot the 73gr ELD-M through the same rifle. I'm shooting at 2500ft elevation and usually pretty low humidity. I've noticed to 800yds I'm very consistent but after that I get wild unexplained flyers, so I know i'm on the edge of stability. If I were to start over I would look at the 69gr TMK or 69gr MK. Wind is definitely a factor and not only left to right, but up and down. Those bullets really move crazy but its do-able. The furthest I have been able to hit plates was 928yds but that was only 5/10 times the rest of the time I would hit dirt with no excuses for the change. [/QUOTE]
