jcampbellsmith Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I got my Sako 75 re-barreled to 1:8 twist so I could shoot the 105 gr A-Max. Regards JCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotDogsForTea Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I don't know about a 24inch barrel, but i was told that my remmy with a 26inch barrel and 1in 9 and an eigth twist would never stabilise 105g amax. I tried them anway and found it loves them even more than 87g v max. i think the best way is to try some and see what happens as you'll never know otherwise.( out of interest, where have you seen 105g v max ). Cheers, Fatty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotDogsForTea Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Russ, i think it's a mistake then. If you want to try some 105g amax, pm me with your address and i'll send you some down to try to save you buying 100. Cheers, Fatty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an m55 in 223 already Good donor action,as you know.Get a 'smith that has experience with the heavies in 243,especially if you are getting that barrel a bit short. g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
