[QUOTE="muleystalker, post: 1519167, member: 79944"] I think they are finding when trying to push the long high BC bullets harder the radiused lands of the 5R barrels put less stress on the bullet jackets that the 90* traditional lands. I know Someone from Bartlein was also in on the thread and was having trouble with a traditional rifles barrel he put together trying to run the long 6.5 SMK 150’s. I told him the 5R was handling them just fine. He tried one and that seems to be what their conclusion was. I know a friend is doing ok with a six groove traditional with the 150’s but it’s on a 6.5 Creedmoor so they are not being pushed fast. Just food for thought.I looked on the Brux site and could not find what rifling configuration they use on their 7mm barrels, you may want to give them a call. I also heard scuddelbutt that Berger may have had a bad run of the 195's in the beginning but I cannot confirm that, it may be worth looking into I don't know when you bought your bullets( how old they are). Good luck. [/QUOTE]
