It'll do okay with lighter stuff like 147-150 gr FMJ, but that twist really shines with heavier rounds like 168-175 gr.

The first time I took it to the range to sight it n I used federal 180grn. Took six shouts to get it on target at 50 yards. At 100 it was 1 inch groups. Would like to get it to raged hole but I've only put 40 rounds through it so far. Thanks for the info by the way
