[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 845700, member: 10"] If the bullets are strong enough to handle the launch velocity and RPMs, they will generally shoot better as they go faster. You mention they may be out of balance. I do not think this is the problem because if they are shooting well at a lower velocity, when you push them faster, their RPMs go up and stability should improve. Only time I have seen this is with thin jacketed match bullets when they reached their velocity limits and could not handle the stress of the high RPM load. This is a tricky one. I would be curious to see if the rifle performed the same with say a Berger 150 gr VLD. The 270 WSM should not be able to push any modern bullet fast enough for bullet integrity to come into play but who knows. Will be interested to see more testing with this one. [/QUOTE]
