In my 25/06 AI I'm shooting 115gr VLD's, pushed by 56gr of RL25. I'm using a PacNor barrel on this gun and this load shoots "bug holes"!

Hunter, I shoot 107SMK's out of my 243AI,9 Twist Hart, in front of 47.3 gr's. of H-4831Sc, using Lapua Brass and Russian Primers. Since you have an 8 Twist, I would back off a few grains and work back up. I'm jumping my bullets .007 but if you're going to shoot the VLD's you may want to get into the rifeling. Be methodical and be safe, good luck with the new piece.
