My 1976 model 7x57 shot patterns yesterday - like 9 to 10" groups. I went home disappointed wondering what the hell was wrong.

I went everything last night, and discover the barrel twist is 1 in 10", which sure as hell won't stabilize a 162 ELD-X smirk Phooey All my references said they should have 1 in 8.75" smirk
