I am shooting the 175 SMK's out of my Remington 700 with the 1 in 10 twist barrel...I have gotten some
pretty good results out to 250 in the F class matchs here..I have found that Reloader 15 is the best
powder in my rifle and I am using Federal Mag.primers and Winchester brass.The bullets jump into
the lands..My charge weight is 43.0 grains..In some manuals that is listed as over max...
I wouls continue to use it for the shoots but it only has a sporter weight barrel and gets very hot in
short order..Maybe this winter I will have it rebarrel with a bull barrel....
And like yourself I would like to shoot the 155 Lapua's but they will not shot accurate with the twist..
My thought on it is to stick with the heavy bullets for better performance in the wind..Good luck
with your shooting..John
