[QUOTE="ImaBBaller, post: 2233962, member: 11979"] With a 1/7 twist you would expect it to like the heavier bullets (actually length is much more important than weight, and obviously heavier bullets are typically longer). I think the sierra 77gr (with cannelure) is what the .mil uses in their mk262 load from black hills. It pulls double duty as the spr round and one of the favorite loads for the mk18's and cqbr rifles. I'm hoping to work a load up to duplicate the black hills loading, if anybody has any pet loads for the sierra 77's let me know. I took it out to zero the iron sights and aimpoint at 50 yards last night and it was shooting about 2" groups (@50yds) with federal xm193. Part of that is the rifle/ammo and part was probably on my weak eyes with no magnification. I can definitely feel the pressure from firing with the brakeout comp. It does seem to mitigate muzzle flip somewhat though. The rifle wants to jump a little to the right, which I assume is probably due to the rifling direction. Overall pretty happy so far. [/QUOTE]
