[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1983480, member: 7999"] I was asking about the twist of the stw. Your 8 twist 7-08 would run the 155g AH fine. I am guessing about 3100 fps. My only thought is the 155g AH is pretty long and may not fit well in the short action. We did some testing yesterday with a 140g in my 280ai. Saw a about 250 fps gain over my 143g HH load. Will do some more shooting today and hopefully shoot long. Looks like smoke is down, hoping to see far enough. This is a 9" twist bullet. May fit better. [/QUOTE]
