Brillo Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 Does anyone know the minimum recommended twist rate for the above bullet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 1-10 RDF stands for Random damned flyer, or as someone else said there's a 3 in every box 😁 I do have a box of the 185 gr 7mm and they do measure quite uniform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Ian. I omitted to mention that it’s a 308 bullet, not 7 mm. I’ll edit the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guessed you meant .308, so still 1-10. The listed BC's are pretty close apparently and definitely appealing, but people do seem to have problems with them, but mostly what I have read about is the 6mm and 6.5.

Andrew Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 I shoot 224x70 RDF, 6.5 x 130 and 140 RDF, 308x175 RDF, and 308 x 210 RDF. They seem to shoot pretty well. With these bullets I seat them deep and run them fast.~Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
