    Anyone use Remington 55gr PSP in a 1:7 twist barrel. I didn't know if the jackets were strong enough to stand up to the fast twist. I'm thinking of picking up enough for HD ammo.

    They'll handle the 1:7 twist just fine.

    You shouldn't run into disintegrating rounds unless you start running less than 45gr or so. Even then it's not a guaranteed thing, just a possibility.

    It has a lot to do with how fast you push them as well.

    QFT. :thumbsup:

    If it's commercially loaded, even at those light weight's - odds are it's going to do what you ask it to, to a point - accuracy may suffer somewhat. YMMV.

    If it's handloaded, and towards the upper end of the range - could be interesting.
