I read here and an earlier post I put up that my 175s would more than likely stabilize out of a barrel with 1:12 rifling in my 308. I'm probably worrying for nothing but will the slower twist have adverse affects at longer range as opposed to using say 168 grain rounds? I haven't gotten to shoot the rifle much, I bought it on leave, got a VERY rough zero, then had to pack it up. I haven't seen let alone fired it for going on a year and a half now so I've started doubting it.
