Richard asked him what he shot them in, the guy replied a 7mm STW, with a 9 twist. Richard said they wouldn't fly without a 7 twist, the guy replied that he'd shot 2 box's he'd got from a dealer and they did fine.
I soon got an email from kirby, requesting me to test some in my 9 twist, loaded to 3100 fps to simulate a STW load, they shot well but they got better at 3350, so you'll get say 2850 from them, not that loaded to mag length?? Wish ya luck, keep me posted and Send me the leftovers if they won't fly!!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they won't stabilize...but I'll try anything for free

Ditto on the leftovers.
