I'm thinking about picking up a box of these to try in my 6.5CM w/ 8.5" twist, Barnes says 8" twist required. Anybody try 8.5"? Think they will stabilize?

Haven't tried the LRXs in my .260, but it does stabilize 140gr VLDs, an pretty long bullet too, with no problems.

John,
Thanks - I'm betting they will be fine, just wondering if anybody here had already done it.
