    .308 1-14" twist loads?

    Re: .308 1-14" twist loads? Obviously it's stabilizing just fine in that picture. I'm not sure what other conditions you plan on shooting in though.

    .308 1-14" twist loads?

    Re: .308 1-14" twist loads? I'm curious to hear how it went and how cold it was when you where shooting. Also, are you very high above sea level? Usually only target shooters use twists that slow trying to squeeze that last bit of accuracy out of a shot. Nothing wrong with that idea, but it...
