[QUOTE="Rogmay, post: 1070711, member: 87682"] Ramrod79, that's interesting to hear, one of the reasons I'm going with the Cooper is that I've talked to a few people that have had good luck with the Berger vld's in 168 & 180's, the 1:9 twist is a good fit for the heavier bullets, I have a 1:9.5 in my tikka which is a little slow for the 180's, (which is what the savage and the Sako have) it does shoot the 168's rather well, 3/4" @ 100yrds, as far as the weight the savage is almost 1 lb heavier than the Cooper! Not sure what the exchange rate is in Canada but Excalibur runs about $2150 in the states. Either way that's good info to know! Also, as far as the seating goes, I know chambers are different but my tikka is loaded .003 off the lands and I had to file my clip I.D. For the longer bullets, OAL 3.440, clip I.D. In Coopers are 3.66. [/QUOTE]
