The Apex 194 grain has the same BC as the 240 grain CEB. Notice the short ogive on the CEB. It's not a sleek bullet. You'd be able to drive the Apex way faster.

Don't use Berger's stability calculator for anything but burgers. Bergers don't have tips. Honestly, just don't use their calculator.
Use this one. https://jbmballistics.com/cgi-bin/jbmstab-5.1.cgi
Thank you.
Both JBM and Berger's calculators show the same results for the 1:7" twist with the 240gr CEB Lazer: SG 1.65

Go for it. Will be a learning experience one way or another for sure.
This has me thinking of getting a 1:6" twist barrel for my 300 RUM to try 180gr to 240gr mono's. And, see what they do with 250gr lead. At least 3,200 fps with 250gr would be great to try to get to.
