So, I have been loading for 300BLK for a number of years now; however, all my barrels have been 1:7 until now.

I know that plated bullets or even some thinly jacketed ones are prone to come apart with faster twist rates.

My question is has anyone here shooting a 1:5 and what projectiles are you using successfully?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Patrick
