    Twist rate of Savage 110 in 7mm Rem Mag ?


    I recently bought a 110 in 7mm Rem Mag,and as far as I can deduce it is made in 1993..I got a box of 150gr with it,and it really shoots good with them.I plan to load for it,and would like to go heavier because I already have a 30-06 that I shoot 150s in,as well as a 270 that I load with 130s..Midway has some 175 flatbase soft points that I think I would like to try,but they really look long,and I am afraid they wont stabilize..Did these 110s all share the same rate of twist,and if so do any of you know what it is? Thanks

    Thanks..How well does a 1 in 9.5" twist stabilize something like a 175gr Cor lokt?.Also ,I know it's off topic,but will a standard long action 110 stock fit this rifle,or do the magnum have a different length action?.

    You provide the data on the bullets and you'll have your answer.
    Get out your calipers or search for the bullet data on the manufacturer's web site.

    Thanks.I could not find the length of the CorLokt,but used 1.35" based on the lengths of other similar bullets that were listed in the chart,and I entered 2,750 fps.I got a green listing of 1.750 for stability .

    According to QuickLOAD the 175 Remington PSP Corelokt is 1.276"

    I also have one in 7RM manufactured in '85 not sure on the twist, but it really likes 150 - 160gn bullets. Used 150NBTs for deer and 160NPTs for elk. Would have to check my records to see if I ever loaded 175s. Standard length long action - https://www.savageshooters.com/conte...Action-Lengths
