lee w 118 Posted June 26, 2021 Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Hi there will it be possible to run 108g eldm in a 8T and still shoot the 110 Atip . Ideally wanted to run 90 eldx and 110 Atip . I know hornady says 7.5 to 7.7 twist but they will be at 3400 at the muzzle that is Atip the 110g . I want to run with a 1-8 twist . Is it better to run 108g eldm , and 110Atip or 90eldx And 110g atip . Cheers in advance Lee . I want a dual varmint target spec rifle. Like the sound of 90g eldx @ 3600 , 3700ISH 😁 What twist will I need for each cinario 108g & 110g atip -? 90g&110 atip-? Bit of advice needed , cheers Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryh Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Lee, What are you shooting to get 3400 mv with 108g - that’s no slouch 🤔 I’m using a 1:7.5 twist in a 6mm Dasher and with 105 Bergers that is a comfortable 2970 but you are ‘way’ past this configuration Good luck and I assume you have a spare barrel on hand 😉😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldie Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 a 1-7.5" is unlikely to stabilise either the A-tip, the 108, and certainly not the 110 sierra. All these are finicky bullets, and can be a right paint to tune. I would not fit anything slower than a 1-7" twist if a customer requested use of these bullets. It will still shoot lighter bullets, though to be honest, a 6.5 PRC will be so overbored, the twist rate is likely to be the least of your problems.

lee w 118 Posted August 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Alright Dave tube is on order , should be here February time. I've gone 7.5 . So we will have to wait and see what it likes . 👍. I have ordered new bolt face for BAT.mine is 2piece construction so .540 on 6mm prc not a problem.
