6.5 107 Sierra bullets in a 8 twist barrel

[356tsw]

I have a 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x47L and 6.5x55 SM all in 8 twist barrels. Has anyone shot 107 Sierra's in there 8 twist barrels.

Yep, I shot them to fire form an improved Sweede, they did surprisingly well, had a few 5 shot groups in the 2s and a couple that dipped into the high ones.

I shoot them in a 6.5BRX 8t.
Seem to do as good as 139 lapua's

Sorry, correction, I shot the 100g Varminters not the 107s.

You really cant go wrong with the sierras as they have very good jackets these days and if you can get them buy enough to really give them a go.

We have been testing the 107 gr Sierra's in our 6.5mm PCC AR-15 wildcat w/ a 1:8 S.S. P3 bores
and the velocity and accuracy have been pretty good at 2,600 fps.-2,700 fps. @ Max Loads w/
20"-24" tubes.
