[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 861143, member: 63138"] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Thanks to all of you who commented on my original post. There were several good points made. For one, it seems that a bit more twist than you need is better than a little less twist than you need. However, I’m still looking for an answer to my main question. I should have been more specific. So let me be and maybe that will help get to the crux of the situation.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]The bullets I’m having trouble with are the heaviest/longest Barnes LRXs available in several calibers, namely the 7mm, the 30 cal and the 338. Has anyone shot repeated 0.5 MOA groups with any of those LRX bullets and if so what bullet and what twist were you using? And if you don’t mine what was your chambering, load, jump, barrel length and velocity. [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
