105 grain hornady A-Max in 243 BLR

[adubbert]

I have a Browning BLR in 243 and I am wondering if Hornady 105 grain A-max will stabilize with the rifle twist of this rifle?The Hornady manual says that the 105 grain A-Max needs a barrel twist of 1-9 and faster.What is the barrel twist of Browning BLR 243 and will it stabilize?

the amax 105 is a match bullet, do you do a lot of (or all target shooting with your blr ? just wondering, because this might not be the right bullet for the application. you should give the 87gr vmax a look as well

I was only going to target shoot wiyh 105 grain

the 87's might work better in your 10 twist but you never know unless you try, the 105's are really long to so im not sue how they would work in a lever...
