[quote="slimjim"]Frak, the A-Tip will only put you in danger. It is a target bullet made for 1:8.5 twist. I've been looking at them to build a 300 PRC. If you want a lethal .308 bullet with great p ...

Comparing twist rates for the .308 @ 178gr.

ELD-M --- ELD-X --- A-Max

ELDs a 1/12 is acceptable but the A-Max is a 1/10.

That is the science.

Very Interesting!

That was last autumn.

Hmm maybe it was weather but no , it was getting colder as I fired ...
