[QUOTE="Ranger260, post: 1911457, member: 24186"] Jon, The Pantera is sexy, but I am really interested in a classic sporter for the Sauer. I have about all the "sexy" I can handle in my Seekins Havak PH1 6.5prc with a 1-8" twist barrel...lol. I was referring to an 1-11" twist Sauer barrel being able to stabilize and accurately shoot 200+ grain bullets. Tikkas have the same issue with the slow 11-twist barrel, and it seems that some can run 200 gr bullets successfully and some cannot. Sounds like the magazine will barely accommodate a 200 gr AB...hopefully living at higher altitude in UT helps to stabilize the larger bullets with a slow twist. I wish the Europeans would get with it and start manufacturing .30 caliber chamberings with a 10-twist barrel. Flush-fit mags are a plus since I regularly carry one-handed, gripping around the magazine and action. [/QUOTE]
