We all loading it with 6ppc dies without in problems at all, the first 4 that were built were all in 10 twist and so far the biggest we have tried were the Berger 95 VLD , Carl has the stuff now to do the 9 twist it should be good for the 105 Bergers.
We have shot just about everything from 58 Vmaxs to 95 bergers out of it so far and it seems to love all them, A few or better then others, Kerry Carver has some 1 hole groups he has worked up with the 58 and 95's , I will start with some of his load deta and keep everyone posted on how mine is shooting.
Kerry should be posting some load info before to long on what he has worked up.

So in theory we could see about 2800fps with 105grainers out of a 20"?!?! |

It sais on the website they recomend 1:7 or 1:8 rate if twist for those, but they are only 95 grainers. I just wanted to know if anyone has tried them in a 1:10 or 1:9 to see how they behave. |

I have shot the Berger 95 VLD in mine with a 1:9. They shoot GOOD. So god that I hate to pay for them!! I have also shot the Nosler 95's and they did well also. I have not shot any SMK's in this one.

I wonder why SMK had that disclosure about a fast twist rate. I don't think they may be longer than Berger's 95g VLD, are they?

Berger 95gr VLD's are 1.150. Sierra 95 gr Match King's are 1.180. So yes the Sierra bullet is longer by .030
