Your 125 Sierra is too long for the 18 twist. I had a good, long conversation about them with Randy Robinett. I was trying to use them in my 30 br 15 twist and they didn’t work. They need a 12 twist. I bought 500 Speer TNT 125s. They’re shorter and should work, I’m told. I haven’t tried them yet as I went into a 6.5-47 and 6br craze. New barrels needed to be tested.Yesterday at the 100 yard range any where from 40.8 - 41.6 gr. with a 125 Sierra 18 for 18 key holed the target.
I just loaded some 110's starting at 42 up to 42.9 gr. but can't try until Friday.
Almost forgot this is an 18 twist Krieger barrel, and will be used for Hunter class score.
Joshb I tried searching before I posted and then again using Eddie Harren in the search NOTTA my search abilities must suck.
