[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1252769, member: 77249"] I would check the Jacket/Core load against Barnes' data. See where it places between their Min. and Max. for the powder and load you list. If it is at the top or above the Barnes Data I would start over developing the load. I tried to work up a load for my 300 WSM going from Jacket/Core bullets to one piece bullets. I even dropped from 180 Gr. to 165/168 gr. Hornady GMX and Nosler E-Tip which was even longer than the Jacket/Core 180 Gr. No Luck, Groups went from less than 1" for the 180 Gr. to near 3 " for the 165/168 gr. one piece. I have come to the conclusion that my barrel has to soft twist to make these bullets stabilize. Good Luck and Be Safe in your search for your new load. [/QUOTE]
