I have been reloading .223 for some time now. I just got a 308 in a 1-12 twist. I was wondering what bullet weights are good for it. I like the hornady v-max for target shooting. Will this handle and stabelize the 110g? And possibly up to 168g?

We are shooting the 208 Amax out of a 26in 1-12 twist with great results. 2650fps

Yes. the slower the twist, the more difficulty you will have stabilizing heavier bullets. Lighter bullets are not a problem. 110's are very light and will fly fast, so 1:12 twist is plenty. Not sure if it's ideal, though. the gun will probably like the 140-168grain range stuff a little better, I would think.

ok that will work. Like I say, I will be mostly punching paper out from 100- 400 yards.

my 1-12 rem sps handles 110's to 175's, ive tried the 190 smk's and they show promise, have to test them further than 100
