[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 1033236, member: 35183"] I'm surprised you can shoot the 69's through a 1:12 twist barrel. I had a Rem 700 SPS with a heavy barrel with the same twist and the heaviest weight it would group was a 55gr. A 1:9 twist should be good up to 75gr HPBT . Probably not good enough for the long pointy VLD's though. I have a 1:8 twist barrel to shoot the 80gr Berger VLD's. [/QUOTE]
