[QUOTE="Cow Town Bill, post: 1375180, member: 29791"] For the 105's you should have an 8 twist barrel for best accuracy. The 8 twist can indeed over stabilize the lighter bullets with thin jackets---I've had 87 Vmax bullets that either blew up or fired off in some weird trajectory with my 6 SLR (similar to a 243 Win) The Berger twist calculator should be used with some caution with light thin jacketed bullets---perhaps the calculator is intended for their bullets only.
