[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1492709, member: 94491"] I was toying with shooting the 155gr HH bullets from the 1:8 twist--- with the 1:9.5 twist I would need to stay about 4000 msl to make sure they were stable, the 143's seem to show stability down to arounf 900 msl, the 131's would definitely work-- i normally hunt between 6000-11000 msl BUT I do go to alaska every once in anwhile for hunting and would like to make sure my bullets are stable there at sea level too if possible--- the 131 HH kills me in my head, I run 130 grain bullets in my 270 win so it's hard for me to run the same weight in my 7 rem mag for some reason (mental block) even thought hey are much faster from a 7rem mag than a 270 win-- its a 26" barrel so if I keep it it should get some good velocity nevr thought of that aspect-- $350-500 for a "custom" barrel [/QUOTE]
